Reserves: Soane Vikena, Karl Tu’inukuafe, Nepo Laulala, Sam Darry, Adrian Choat, Sam Nock, Bryce Heem, AJ Lam.

Good to see Nock back and not-Riccitelli at 2 +16.

Plumtree must regularly defecate in MacDonald's cornflakes or something.

I think he's off contract at the end of the year - if he's looking elsewhere (and fair enough) then I don't mind not playing him if it's not necessary. Blues can't keep everyone.

No space for Tuttle... Don't understand Powell starting.

Prop depth looking good. Leota at 8 because Wells is concussed. Don't think we'll miss much with him out. Curious to see how Leota goes at 8 though after training at lock. Also Hill is out with illness.

Good luck to Philip on debut captaincy.

Memo to Dalton, in bullet-point format:

- it was your throw, and
- your hooker fucked the throw up, therefore
- you don't get to bitch at the Ref wrt said lineout.

Holy shit, Rebs are in again!

Was about to say the Blues could be fortunate they didn't take a closer look at Perofeta's offload. But seems kind of moot if the Rebels defence doesn't stiffen up.
Yeah, don’t think it’s going to matter in the scheme of things if they just let Clarke waltz downfield.
