So looks like Francis Saili is out for 6 weeks with high ankle sprain, and Willison out for at least 4 with torn hamstring ...

The roundabout at 13 continues for the Blues! Looks like it will be either Moala or Ahki. Interesting JK mentions as well he would still consider Piutau at 13, but is loathed to break up a back 3 in form.

The plus side for the Blues, is no one has really stood out at 13 so far this season, so shouldn't be a huge change for the back line.

Moala has looked pretty good at 13 IMO ... anyway, given the injuries, he's my choice to start in the 13 jersey this weekend ... if Saili's out for 6 weeks, that will rule him out of the June tests?
 
I reckon Benji Marshall could make a good 13, lets see if we can sign him from league. Oh wait...

In all seriousness, from what I've seen Moala deserves a go.
