Chiefs 2026

I live in Perth and love it so far, and yes, it's far easier traveling the world from there than where I previously was in Christchurch. Beautiful city and the stadiums are nice and close to me.

When extending his contract, Nic White complimented the force and his family praised the outdoor lifestyle. It's got appeal beyond scuba, albalone and crays, wreck diving, and traditional watersports too, big for kitesurfing etc.

not the AB coaches, no...

Caught Tepaea Cook-Savage at the Waikato Women's game just now. He's signed for the Chiefs next year.

Kyle Brown will be in the WTG according to this paywalled article:

In the article about Jacomb they also mention that DMac has a sabbatical clause for 2028. While that's still a few years away it should make the choice of the third 1st 5 more important as the Chiefs either need to sign someone now to develop, or identify who will replace Jacomb from 2027. The fact that the Chiefs wanted to retain Jacomb must mean Trask is definitely going back to Japan.

The Chiefs will need a specialist 1st 5, as there are more options at fullback (ENS, Taumoefolau, Cook-Savage). The latter can also play 1st 5 but maybe the third option at this stage.
