Blues first five-eighth Stephen Perofeta. So many have come since Spencer and before Perofeta and all have failed to be what they initially promised. Perofeta, who was signed by the Blues last year, has just 55 minutes of Super Rugby experience. Right now they would have Perofeta sitting fourth in their national pecking order, behind Beauden Barrett, Damian McKenzie and Richie Mo'ounga. What the All Blacks and Blues coach Tana Umaga like about Perofeta is that he is in possession of an even temperament that enables him to respond well to pressure.
