@MN5 take Tauranga the fuck out of that mix thankq
I prefer NP and Napier but it's about the same size which is what I was getting at.

The main problem for the 2020 Chiefs was that Warren Gatland massively underestimated the amount of preparation needed to prepare a successful NZ Super Rugby team.

Someone got their adult diapers in a twist.
Tauranga = NZs answer to Florida. Beautiful beaches that you have to drive through thousands of polyester clad mobility scooter drivers to get to.

@Crucial not to mention there's one way in and out and you're fucked if the Tauriko intersection is backed up.

@Yeetyaah actually feel for Solomon , I know what Caleb Did was not deliberate, but it was kind of reckless..He was never going to stop Solly from scoring , just feel he could have jumped over him, given the damage inflicted ..personally if it was me injured , I would be very dark.

The details of Gatland's deal, gladly signed off by New Zealand Rugby, have been well publicised but less well-known is the extent of the franchise's rebuilding job next year under new coach Clayton McMillan because it's understood current assistants Tabai Matson and Neil Barnes will not be assisting him.

paywalled
but how does a lack of job security in a business where the only thing that matters is results, make you do your job worse?

@Tim good , matson especially has been a waste of time and barnes at defence was poor last season.

As I've said previously, Gatland inherited Colin Cooper's assistants, and neither Barnes (forwards) or Matson (defence) have been good enough this season. If McMillan is being groomed to take over in 2024 then he should have some say in the appointment of the new assistants. Gatland has favoured the rush defence but the Chiefs have been guilty of being too passive on defence, which highlights to me that Matson was fully in charge of the defensive system used. Getting a new forwards coach similar to Coventry would be a good start.

Aaron Goile's article on Stuff says that Michael Allardice is a confirmed departure along with Falcon and Manu. Maybe he is going overseas because I can't believe the coaches wouldn't want to retain some experience amongst a very green locking group.

We already knew, Allardice and Falcon off to Japan.

Agree with Fletcher Smith. But, would have thought Tom Franklin and James Tucker targets at lock. Would like to see Selby-Rickett starting for Chiefs too. Matt Garland may be worth a look for midfield if still around.
-
Are people ever going to move on from what Selby-Ricket did? The guy has been punished. Time to give him the chance to turn things around.
