I think Blues will beat Chiefs, but not sure they will win by a 3 try margin.
Depends if we see Chiefs A or Chiefs B
No need to worry, the Chiefs are so bad they lost to the Crusaders.

Based off of Dermody's comments on SENZ could be seeing a bit of rest/rotation this week - Millar also still a week away.
Could be something like:
- de Groot
- Taylor
- Ma'u
- Dunshea
- Tucker
- Hicks
- Harmon
- Broughton
- Arscott
- Faleafaga
- Nareki
- Gilbert
- Te Hiwi
- Tavatavanawai
- Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens
- Bell/Jackson
- Johnstone
- Ainsley
- Stodart
- Michaels
- Hastie
- Whaanga
- Garden-Bachop
-
By those mins in the Highlanders thread you'd think it would make sense to give Tavatavanawai a rest. Get him nice and fresh to stream roll the Brumbies (likely) next week.
-
@Canes4life if anyone else suggested it i might have fallen for that!
-
@Kiwiwomble worth a shot.

Was wanting to go to this game. Will give it a miss now. Not keen to see us get flogged by 50. No JRK, Tavatavanawai, Haig, Fakatava on the bench, Withy rested.... Hurley at fullback and Michaels to debut
-
what the fuck...straight in to start?
"hey, you know the hurley guy and hes got some skill but a bit small?....how about we surround him with other smaller guys....just so he gets no protections at all....sound good?"
-
Aumua back, still no Lomax.
-
This could get very ugly
-
Canes by a million...per half

Highlanders naming an out and out B team with a few starters sprinkled in. I understand the reasoning but I was wanting us to name our strongest team to build momentum and continuity going into next week.
Looks like we are banking on the Drua to beat the Rebels so we can hold on to 6th spot.

So, Judd was available. Jordi offers a lot more as a reserve option so hope he gets a good amount of game time
Unavailable: Cam Roigard, Tyrel Lomax, Caleb Delany, Brad Shields
