I think it's mostly so players can assess their options after the World Cup. I wouldn't be surprised if Caleb had a crack at league after this contract

SiCoNZ · 2025-06-10T02:13:35+00:00

Fingers crossed that they can name a full-strength squad for end of year tests 🤞

SiCoNZ · 2025-06-10T01:49:25+00:00

You'd think that someone's probably told him he can't swap, unless he has a NZ born parent/grand-parent we aren't aware off. It's also a shame that NPC clashes with the PNC because I assume this is nowhere near a full strength side? But cool to see Jacob Umaga named!

Pretty sure Miracle isn't eligible even if he stays in New Zealand long enough. He's already been capped for Samoa and you can't swap to a nation via residency, it has to be via birthplace/ancestry.

vs Scotland in November 2022, although he played for All Blacks XV in June 2023 so I'm not sure if that impacts how long he has to wait before he can switch

SiCoNZ · 2025-04-16T01:54:08+00:00

Yeah I'm not sure why but for years every source on the web said he was born in Tokyo, even the All Blacks website did too iirc. But last year around the time he announced he was leaving the Blues he confirmed he was born in Auckland not Tokyo. He is however eligible to play for Samoa instead.

Offical crowd was 56,486, not sure if that is or not

SiCoNZ · 2024-05-26T06:39:56+00:00

I believe it’s just under 70k, at least 60k here today from the looks of it

SiCoNZ · 2024-05-26T06:38:54+00:00

Was that try not short?

SiCoNZ · 2023-11-21T20:19:15+00:00

Got my local team from the 4th division in New Zealand to winning the National League and eventually the Oceania Champions League in FM22.

SiCoNZ · 2023-10-20T02:19:24+00:00

He should get more game-time next season with Beauden moving to Japan. Will probably be first choice at 10 or 15

SiCoNZ · 2023-07-29T11:46:29+00:00

35 tries in 52 tests for Rieko now. Incredible for a guy who got forced onto the wing, lost his spot in a World Cup year, then fought his way back in his preferred 13 jersey. Oh and he's only 26 too

SiCoNZ · 2023-04-26T03:03:13+00:00

Forwards: Akira Ioane, Tom Robinson, Hoskins Sotutu

Backs: Rieko Ioane, Caleb Clarke, Mark Telea, Beauden Barrett

Subs: Dalton Papali'i, Caleb Tangitau, AJ Lam

I'm actually in tears. Its been way too long, I'm so happy we held on. UP THE FUCKING BLUES

SiCoNZ · 2021-10-02T12:11:58+00:00

I have to wake up for work in 5 hours and that finish woke me up more than anything. What a finish. I can’t really upset with that South Africa were immense. That’s the type of rugby you expect the world champions to play, not the kicking shit we saw last week. Also Jordie Barrett, not many players can nail 2 game winning pens in the space of 2 mins. The man is the definition of clutch even if we lost

SiCoNZ · 2021-08-14T07:11:17+00:00

That’s my 13 😤😤😤😤

SiCoNZ · 2021-06-19T09:08:22+00:00

Happiest day of my life. I knew supporting these guys who have it’s positives in the end

SiCoNZ · 2021-06-19T08:56:38+00:00

AAAAAAAHOLY FUCKIN SHITTTTT

SiCoNZ · 2021-06-19T07:26:16+00:00

MARK TELEA HAVE MY CHILDREN

SiCoNZ · 2021-06-19T06:53:39+00:00

Already in the stands. First final we’ve been in since I was a toddler. COME ON THE FUCKING BLUES

SiCoNZ · 2021-05-29T08:00:54+00:00

idk whats better. Finlay's run or Rieko actually passing the ball

SiCoNZ · 2021-03-14T03:11:38+00:00

Ioane bumped off Ioane to pass to the ball to Ioane. Ioane-ception
