    Shit - not much room to make improvements.

    Keep Karl T and Stevenson for sure. Or, try to carry 7 and secure them all as mentioned by @Bovidae

    We need a lock - time to go hunt in Canterbury again.

    Is McNicol going to be able to play? Might be time for him to get cut, in which case I'd chase Little (or Nonu!) and another midfielder/wing.

        Is Aaron Goile reading the Fern? That list of players looks remarkably like mine in the first post of this thread. He forgot only one name.

          @stargazer It's more than likely.

          It's been noted by some of the media people who used to post here that a lot of media people do read here.

          So when you're busy saying how much you hate a particular commentator, be aware that they might read about it! 🙂

                  Aidan Ross must be signed. He was outstanding before his injury. He is a FAB IMO.

                    …...and please, when someone scores a short range try the words 'unstoppable from that close' should only be used when someone genuinely is unstoppable from that close. (hint: think about how next time they try it someone might stop them)

                      agree but for that to happen either 7 props or hames/moli might have to be moved on

                        I can see him move to the Crusaders where there is a need to replace Wyatt Crockett.

                            @booboo Might not stay a back-up to Moody. It all depends on whether Moody wants to earn some coin in Europe or Japan after the RWC. He's 32 by then and he has already had some injury concerns. Perry will also be 32 by then.

                              @booboo They make the shittest players look like world beaters (Bryn Hall, George Bridge, Heiden Bedwell Curtis etc.) so yes you'd jump at the chance to go there.

                                  Great teams will make honest players look good and good players look great. Crap teams will have the opposite effect.

                                  That of course being the case, Chiefs fans had better be mindful of who they sign up for next season eg look for Hamish Dalziel to make a big impression for Canterbury but if signed by the Chiefs, look out.

                                    so, if i am reading this right, the Chiefs should have more players in the All Blacks? :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

                                      We are pleased to announce that props Aidan Ross and Angus Ta’avao have re-signed with the Gallagher Chiefs.

                                      It is a great boost to the front row with Ross and Ta’avao signing on until 2021 and 2020 respectively.

                                        @mikedogz Does that mean they have four tighthead props for 2019, or is Moli switching to loosehead?

                                          With Tu'inukuafe now with the Blues, the Chiefs prop stocks are : Graham, Hames, Ross, Laulala, Ta'avao and Moli. Is Kautai signed ?
