        interesting Tana still on for 2 years as Ass. Coach, kinda expected it'd be short term while he was obviously in negotiations with a NH team.

                    We are still stuck with Tana's shitty squad selections for next year at least, but at least with Coventry and McDonald the team will be organised and we can get the best out of them.

                    Then it's a case of repairing his damage. Did they sack that "talent scout" as well?

                      What a Traitor!

                      One of the guys I respected the most. Grizz, Robbie, Don Hayes etc must be hanging their heads in shame.

                      He couldn't beat razor with Ta$man, good luck with these losers.

                                Yup, the man who has said he could never coach against Canterbury and the Crusaders.

                                Loyalty right there.

                                    Wow! Finally reason (not mark) prevails. It is good of Tana but what choice did he have other than throwing toys etc. I think he'll be much better for a few years with Leon.

                                    Man, you guys are still fucked at halfback. Dont you go ruining Otere Black!!

                                      As a Blues supporter it has been a tough ride but:
                                      Crusaders were the worst NZ losers when the whole franchise thing started
                                      Highlanders were a joke as were the Chiefs for a long time
                                      Canes title took a long time to come. Apparently it took a Cantab to fix that (after he left)

                                      So it was the Blues turn to be shit - for far too long - and this is our year (and the Warriors). So there.

                                        ... were a joke as were the Chiefs for a long time

                                        On the contrary, no team was ever better & more skilled at falling out of mathematical finals contention, then making a massive end of season run to finish fifth. Nobody.

                                          Has there been any announcements about the Dev/u20's coaches? Last year Coventry was the Dev coach

                                          Tiatia, Lavea and Witcombe should be the top of the list (Ieremia is taking the Auckland side on tour during Feb)

                                          Last year Steven Bates was the under 20's forwards coach. That should stop. It's a ridiculous decision to hire a guy whose day job is being a Chiefs cheerleader
