[QUOTE="nickdnz, post: 614070, member: 38640"] I was worried when I saw "Retallick injured for 6 months". Have to say I'm less worried now, but still a massive blow for the Blues and Retallick. There really aren't many good locks going around NZ at the moment, certainly none that are unsigned. Raaymakers as you mention is just on 6'4'' which is very short for a Super Rugby lock. More than that the Counties set-piece, particularly at scrum was arguably their biggest weakness - so for his workrate I feel the Blues would be giving up a lot. Personally I hope the Blues go for broke and just start Patrick Tuipulotu over Liaki Moli, who has more experience but seems to be getting worse each season. [/QUOTE]
