New loose forward added to Blues

The Blues have called in loose forward Onosa'i Tololima-Auva'a to replace the injured Justin Collins for the rest of the Super 14 rugby season.

Collins was ruled out for the rest of the season after rupturing his achilles heel against the Highlanders in the second round.

Tololima-Auva'a, 21, has played for several Auckland age-grade representative rugby teams and last year captained the Auckland under-21s.
