The Blues squad that played the Hurricanes remained in Wellington post-game, and yesterday all returned negative Covid tests.
It is bye week, so the squad has now dispersed and will officially reassemble at the weekend with training to re-start on Sunday at the temporary base in Cambridge, Waikato.
The remainder of the squad and staff that did travel to Wellington have relocated to Cambridge - and remain in a separate bubble awaiting the results of their Covid Tests - due back today.
If they are clear, then they too will be free to disperse.
No-one can travel to Auckland.
