    @Duluth Will Robinson pack down on the tighthead side?

    Would have Plumtree would be better bench cover.

    @Duluth yeah I was surprised to see him on the bench, until I saw the injury list...suspect he may not even get on the field, but if he does, could be the making/breaking of him.

    Yeah the 23 make-up certainly makes for some interesting reshuffling if any new injuries occur.

    Won't take much for some cards to fall the wrong way (eg losing two loose forwards).

    Red or Yellow?

    Tom Robinson at lock still worries me; the scrum looked underpowered

    Regular skipper Dalton Papalii misses a second straight match after his appendix removal, while All Blacks wing Caleb Clarke remains out of the mix while he works back from a hamstring strain. Both are considered chances to play next week should the Blues win through to their first full Super Rugby final since 2003.

    Loosies Akira Ioane and Hoskins Sotutu were superb in the quarterfinal win, and will again be joined by Adrian Choat, the only Blues player to be named in every game this season which is a testament to his resilience.

    16 matches. This will be his 6th start, 10 games as a sub

    I'm sure that's a lot more game time than he was expecting

    My gut says not great. Weather in Auckland this week is horrendous and an Aussie opponent isn't going to push tickets as well.

    This is going to be an intriguing game. The Brumbies are no slugs and I am looking at this Blues team and thinking the Brumbies have the edge in experience. Barrett is going to be pivotal!

    Robinson should be ok at lock with Goodhue beside him and Laulala at 3.

    Tua makes me nervous but he is a big body which could be useful in the conditions if he gets on the field.

    Should definitely provide some punch

    nah, not with the injuries we've got. We aren't the Crusaders you know 😛

    More than 7 would be nice, to provide less nerves going into the final 10 or so. Scrum worries me with TR at lock. Felt very underpowered last week; I hope I'm wrong. It's been a weapon for a few years, not sure why we fell apart.
