    With a new midfielder and a change of backroom culture and a bit of luck, who knows maybe next year the Blues could finish as high as 11th.

    That's a pretty weak effort.

    <p>As opposed to a 10 who can pass kick & direct traffic. While its awesome SBW is staying in NZ (in theory) from a Blues point of view I'd probably be more excited if they'd just announced Jimmy Goperth or Ben Botica was returning... (its not a high bar) </p>

    <p>Yeah well he may have a point. Blues (Auckland) were in their prime when one Terry Wright was a wing. Bring back skinny guys with a dodgy mou!</p>

    <p>would be an odd move at this stage of his career, unless it is more a mentor role with plenty of quality loosies already there?</p>

    I'd take a swap of Messam and Edwards.

    Yeah loose forwards are probably not an issue right now at the blues , so although he is a quality player , it's not like he would be coming in to plug a hole

    Yes and no - Blues need to better their depth to really compete. Messam off the bench is a big step up from Ram/Edwards etc.<br><br>
    Not to mention another huge area of need for the Blues - leadership.

    <p>Agreed, he just hasn't been given much of a go with the loosies we have (the 1 position we have plenty of depth in). We simply do not need Messam.</p>

    <p>Yeah, Edwards has probably deserved more time on the pitch but injury and then the emergence of Ioane have stopped it.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I don't think the Blues need Messam either, if any loosie came up from the Chiefs I'd prefer to get Seu back.</p>
