    JRK and Tangitau both have resigned , both till at least 2027 but one of them till 28 I believe.

    If you nail Jacomb and get this right...

    We might need to nickname you Santa. Don't come often. But always deliver the goods.

    Good on him for always sharing sauce and being very specific about it.

    He better bring some good news to the Chiefs at some point....

        not only staying in dunedin next year...through till 2028! thats a big extension

        thats hugely reassuring, not just the quality of the players we're keeping, theyre happy to commit long term, not just one season extension, all four that have extended have to be pushing for the AB's ad feel Dunedin can get them there

              I think this also dispels the rumours that it is a toxic camp. Four very good players all re-signing, who could easily have left if this was the case.

                  There were tensions because guys were frustrated about results, but that is incredibly normal. At no stage was it ‘toxic’.

                      Alongside Fakatava re-signing five of the key guys all saying we are in for the long-term.

                      They may grumble about Jake being a hard arse. But he is keeping the guys we need.

                        Very, very, very good. He still drives the team culture, all the boys love him.

                            Do people not want people to post rumours? George's hit rate isn't as good as Nogusta but it's better than plenty of others

                            I would rather people post what they hear

                              Rumours are great, they are what makes this place. It is just funny when there is a sheer reluctance to accept facts that debunk the rumours. Keep the rumours coming. Just admit it is ok to be wrong.

                                It is good to see the Highlanders locking in their high profile players it is good for the comp.
                                I don’t want see a weak Highlanders team.

                                    All well and good but it's extremely hard to believe it's not just made up bullshit - and the doubling down on it being a sure thing just makes it all the more ridiculous when more often than not it's the complete opposite.

                                        Movement between franchises tend not to be announced during the season.

                                        Santa/@CtownCowboy is the one who brought it here. He got the guys confirmed today and the rough timing. He's building some good runs on the board
