A few random thoughts came to my mind for no real reason.
Is Sam Nock the most capped Blues halfback of all time?
Harry Plummer has played 88 games for the Blues, and has only 1 try!

Yeah he is - Steve Devine next. Then F. Christie

Crazy when you think about it, and how long he's taken to get there.

@African-Monkey have to be well over 50% off the bench too.

I'm still really dispapointed that he never kicked on. Had all the attributes to be dynamite - but just didn't show it on the park. Still someone I like to watch (albeit in a frustrated way at times)

Yeah as a few of us pointed out, he had the tools, but lacked a bit of confidence to go and fight for possession and was usually in 2 minds as to what to do at times. Was very standoffish with his play in the first few years.
I tell you what, if you mixed Sam Nock's skillet with Fin Christie's aggression and fight, we'd have a hell of a halfback on our hands.

Fixed.

The cloning program is a bit early isn't it? Tele'a hasn't left yet.

@Nogusta said in Blues 2025:
another wing signing
My guess (and hope) would be Tito-Harris. He's been out injured from the sevens all season so may be ready for a return to XV's.

Why can't we sign Ollie Mathis? The most exciting talent in NZ rugby since Ardie Savea. It's criminal that he wasn't signed by somebody last year. Another example of talent being ignored for experience by conservative NZ Super coaches.

@Daffy-Jaffy well my mail was George Bridge but I've just seen an article about him likely linking up with the Force so maybe not.

Now that would be awkward if he came here.....

Trying to think, it would be like Akira Ioane signing for the Crusaders or something.

Or Ali Williams.

Great effort from the boys last night, and congrats to Rieko on breaking the try scoring record which had stood for 18 years.
Some great servants are departing. All the best to them, they all did the jersey proud.

Yeah it was a good effort and we basically lost a bit of momentum when the two hookers were on. Then gained a prop but lost Hoskins
With Hoskins off there wasn't anyone left to convert those final phases.
