Adam Blair has backed Dallin Watene-Zelezniak's appointment as Kiwis captain and vowed to give the fullback all the support he needs. We're trying to grow people within the group and Dallin's an integral part of the team," said Blair, who is set to start from the bench this weekend. Blair worked with Maguire when they were both at the Melbourne Storm in the late 2000s and he is excited with the direction the team is headed. "Every game is won in the forwards and we've got a quality forward pack and a quality team that can do some damage," Blair said.
