He has played there much? I don't remember him at no.8, even at U20 level.
I haven't seen him play there. The pace of the back of the scrum could be useful. The team looks better with him in the backrow.. more targets for our wonky throwing hookers
The best backrow of who is fit might be Choat/Ekuasi/Clark. Maybe we'll see it late in this game

Ta'avao injured?
No idea. Auckland have been terrible at giving injury updates this year.
Any idea @Nogusta ? Or updates on Tuipulotu & Ioane?

Well I decided I getting old fellas. Raining and and turned cool, and have decided to give game a miss tonight, and watch it on TV. It's not being at game (I have watched plenty in shit weather) but the drive home in the rain and dark isn't appealing at all. An hour and a bit (each way)on the road is getting a bit of a chore for me these days (even if I am a gold member etc)!! FFS!
