    Blues midfielder Rieko Ioane admits he's been copping flack from his teammates after snapping his try-scoring drought in Super Rugby


    The All Black has scored in both of their last two games against the Brumbies and Chiefs, having waited since May 2023 for his 50th try.

    Ioane says it's nice to be dotting down again.



    The Blues host the Crusaders at Eden Park on Saturday.
