Kurt Eklund: Blues hooker on starting the Super Rugby season with injury, clash with the Hurricanes
Kurt Eklund is making just his second appearance of the Super Rugby season.
An injury kept the Blues hooker on the sidelines for the first month, but he’s back in the game again as the team faces off against the Hurricanes at Eden Park.
Eklund joined Jason Pine to discuss his return to fitness and his desire to help the Blues right the ship as it coasts on increasingly rocky waters.
“It’s frustrating, but y’know, you can only support the boys where you can, and that’s what I was trying to do.”
“We’ve still got a really good team ... once we make it all click, and hopefully that’s tonight, then y’know, things start going our way.”
