        @Chris I mean why else would it be that era of jersey? The other posts are using the 208/19 jerseys. Maybe looking into it too much. The one about the canes looks like Jordie so I would have to assume it's Cruden and he's back next year. Fugga yes.

          @OleOleOle Confirmed? WTF. I hope he gets picked up by another team like the Blues then.

          @Bovidae I've heard rumours from two sources that Tucker is going to the Blues.

            @Chris Tucker won't be with the Chiefs....so not sure who steps in to that locking position. Slater over Polwart at hooker. I hope they take Finau or Alaimalo or ever Paker over Parete.

            I rate Finau. I though Parker was signed in the WTG.

            More likely. He is only 19 so he would be unlikely to be a full squad member yet. Finau is 20.

              @Tim Fuck that's irritating. Chiefs really shit the bed by not bringing him in this year. At least he will be being used I suppose.

                Tucker got injured in the final last year so might not have been available for selection initially. He did later end up at the Blues...

                  If we don't sign Finau, I'll spit.

                    @gt12 A better chance now if Tucker is not at the Chiefs. Finau can play lock and 6.

                            pretty close no doubt its Cruden

                              Guess that means DMac back to fullback.

                                @Chris-B Who's that Blues player chasing Cruden? He looks familiar. 🤣

                                  @Yeetyaah I'll admit I was struggling to fill in some gaps so was relying on young players who were in the system.

                                  Lalomilo - was in this year's NZ U20s and did OK there. The BOP mafia will be able to tell us how he went this year but he may have been injured.
                                  Luteru Laulala - he has been involved in the Chiefs Dev team but was injured all year. Reihana has a big future but Trask is a little older and further developed. He was the BOP 1st 5 this year when fit. If DMac wants to play fullback then that makes the depth at 1st 5 even worse. Leger is more a 2nd 5.
                                  Vaa'i - a big unit out of Wesley who has size (1.98 m, 118 kg) and was also in the U20s. He is very mobile and started a lot for Taranaki this year.

                                  As for Takarangi, he was overlooked for Price in the Waikato team for most of the season which is why I didn't include him.

                                  Ahhh if that's the tall "skinny looking" guy then I liked him. He always played with plenty of vigor and aggression and sort of semi needled opposition players, whether they deserved it or not! Should be a good unit once he starts filling out a bit with more age.

                                      I would put Caleb Trask ahead of Falcon in the pecking order.

                                          Vaa'i - a big unit out of Wesley who has size (1.98 m, 118 kg) and was also in the U20s. He is very mobile and started a lot for Taranaki this year.

                                          Ahhh if that's the tall "skinny looking" guy then I liked him. He always played with plenty of vigor and aggression and sort of semi needled opposition players, whether they deserved it or not! Should be a good unit once he starts filling out a bit with more age.
