D'Arcy Waldegrave: Sportstalk host on Patrick Tuipulotu returning to play for the Blues in the Super Rugby final - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

The Blues have dropped a selection bombshell for the Super Rugby final - with Patrick Tuipulotu named to start two weeks into what was expected to be a six-to-seven week recovery for a medial ligament tear in his right knee.

Tuipulotu - who limped off in the quarter-final against the Drua - starts in the second row against the Chiefs on Saturday night, with Josh Beehre dropping to the reserves.

Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave unpacks this news.
