@African-Monkey said in Blues 2025:
I think we'll see a massive turnover of players for next season, including a lot of stalwarts.
We've had a successful first half of the decade no matter what the anti Blues brigade say, but I think we could be heading into a rebuild year next season to prepare the next generation.
This season has been disappointing, but next year I expect a season like this.
Hopefully I'll still be alive for the next title in 2045.

And it'll be worth the wait If we are.

Well deserved. He's stepped up from being a bench player into now a very reliable starting player. Works hard (on both sides of the ball.....)
No idea if he's close to AB honours or not yet, but I feel that he can really push for it in the next year or 2.

@Tim he's my bolter for ABs, done his time, up to Ryan now.
He’s not AB level yet IMO.

As stated on Bluss socials

All the best to him. Been a great servant over the last few years.

I always liked Choat thought he was a 100 per center.
A coaches player would give you everything every time he ran out on to the park. -
Anyone know where he's going?

Can't find any references to him on Japanese pages, but it would seem like he would be great for a team here.
Didn't he go to the Bears a few years ago as cover? Returning there?

Hopefully it's the UK. He should have a crack over there because he has a British grandparent

3 more years for Patrick Tuipolutu, brilliant news
Surprising, you'd think he would go and make some dosh overseas at this stage of his career. He will be 35/36 by the time that contract ends. A good thing for him locking in for that long but if his form starts to dip in the next year or so it might not be the good thing for the Blues. I suppose having someone as experienced and respected as him in the squad is always a good thing though.

@Canes4life dunno, I think he will have alot to offer the Blues and Auckland, particularly as his international career winds down....much rather he retires in NZ helping the next generation than buggaring off overseas for the cash helping other countries talent...I am sure he makes enough in NZ to be comfortable and also be able to give back.
