    That still seems like a strange selection decision. I would have strengthened the wingers as Hutchinson will be returning from an ACL, and Coombes-Fabling had knee/hamstring injuries this year too. I expect that Sinkinson will play a lot in the pre-season.

    Why not just ship out LCF? Replace him with a young’un and we’d be looking much better.

    We all expected LCF and TTT to be replaced, but they haven't been. I was hoping the Chiefs would include Frank Vaenuku but he must be happier playing for the AB7s at this stage of his career. A big, quick and physical winger would be a welcome addition.

    I feel like he’ll bring the same flavour as someone like Richard Watt.

    I'm not surprised by that appointment. Hoeata has been involved with the U20s and Development teams so has been in the system for a while.

    I've been reading the thread with all the jerseys and thinking how awful they all were and wondering why posters are going ga ga over them. I think the Central Vikings monstrosity would get some love in that thread.

    I much prefer these ones.

    I guess I'm in the minority. 🙂

    not sure i would ever say they were boring, chiefs always have super detailed jerseys, they ARE very similar to the last several years though...which is good in some ways, people probably dont feel the ned to buy new jerseys

    I do think the chiefs have the best anniversary badge though

    That's basically what I mean, no reason to buy that.

    There looks to be a few extras on that video of Cook-Savage.

    @Yeetyaah Does Insta have all the photos?

    I want to buy that yellow training shirt, that's nice and basic and would be ideal in summer.
    Just release all of this shit for fans to buy.
