Blues suspend Moala from Qld Reds clash Blues winger George Moala has been stood down for breaking team protocol and will miss the Super Rugby match against the Queensland Reds in Brisbane on Friday. Coach Sir John Kirwan declined to specify what Moala had done, but said it related to "just honesty with us." "Just not sharing some of the things he needed to share with us," Kirwan said on Wednesday. That's a big part of our team culture, is honesty, so he won't be travelling. Moala, 22, missed the Blues' last match, a 28-6 win over the Hurricanes, because of a one-match ban for a high tackle on Highlanders winger Buxton Popali'i. His place against the Reds goes to 20-year-old Albert Nikoro, who has been elevated from the bench. The news about Moala comes a day after another Blues back, Francis Saili, appeared in court on a charge of driving while his licence was suspended. Saili, whom Kirwan dropped to the bench for the Reds game because of the incident, was remanded at large until next week. Apart the inclusion of Nikoro, which means Rene Ranger moves back to centre, the rest of the starting 15 is unchanged. Missing from the bench is lock Anthony Boric, who Kirwan said got a couple of knocks to his neck. Kirwan said he expected Boric, who had surgery to his neck last year, to be out for a week at this stage. Blues: Charles Piutau, Frank Halai, Rene Ranger, Jackson Willison, Albert Nikoro, Chris Noakes, Piri Weepu, Peter Saili, Luke Braid, Steven Luatua, Ali Williams (captain), Culum Retallick, Angus Ta'avao, James Parsons, Tom McCartney. Res: Keven Mealamu, Ofa Tu'ungafasi, Ronald Raaymakers, Brendon O'Connor, Jamison Gibson-Park, Baden Kerr, Francis Saili.
