But look at that team,glaring weaknesses at

Stanley out of position not a 13
Wulf over the hill
Piri Weepu never a 10
Albie Mathewson weak 9
Mika was never any good as a loosie,a diluted version of Filipo
Kaino heart never in it,Japan long been calling
Ali been a gimp,Boric pathetic
Toeava never finishes a season.ever

Lots of players were on rep not actual form

Plus Lam weak coach

Highlanders under Joseph taken from scratch into a decent outfit.

Nasi Manu fast developing into a battering ram supremo.in my view he should have been in AB ahead of either Messam/Thompson.

Rene Ranger 13. Benson Stanley 12. Ma’a Nonu 11. Rudi Wulf 10. Piri Weepu 9. Albie Mathewson 8. Brad Mika 7. Daniel Braid 6. Jerome Kaino 5. Ali Williams 4. Anthony Boric 3. Charlie Faumuina 2. Keven Mealamu 1. Tony Woodcock
The Blues squad at the start of the 2012 season. 14 test players. !5 now with Faumuina capped. No wonder Pat Lam and all the Blues suypporters were confident. Whats on paper dosent always turn out the way you want does it.

Their ONLY problem the last 2 seasons, has been their lack of squad depth. This alone, IMHO, has kept them out of at least one playoff.
With the quality of his starting 15 (plus the additional ‘weight’ he will now have on the bench) Jamie must be rubbing his hands – you are 100% correct there :)

My fave facet of the Highlanders play, is how what ‘looks to be uuter chaos and confusion’ at the breakdown – is in fact a thing of beauty :)

Some very good signings. If they get Brad T as well……

Where to for the Blues though…most of their signings have been rather low key ones.
