    Extra players I saw:

    Lisati Milo-Harris
    Sekope Lopeti-Moli
    Josh Iosefa-Scott
    Viliami Taulani
    Samipeni Finau
    Stan van den Hoven
    Kiniviliame Naholo (wasn't taking part)
    Joe Apikotoa (confirmed after cross referencing his photos with a player I saw today)

    3 players I couldn't pick out, 2 wearing BOP shorts.

    Atu Moli and Mitchell Brown were not taking part in training and just walking around.

          @Yeetyaah Where the Chiefs wearing their purple training kit today?

          There was a story about McMillan extending his contract on TV3 tonight and Rob Cobb was in the video. It could have been archive training footage from last year, but maybe there is another prop in the squad if Ross and Moli are still not fit.

            @Bovidae I just tried watching that via their website, but those tools from Newshub have put the wrong video (from the Blues' training in the mud) in the article. 🙄

              @Stargazer Yes, I did the same. I knew it was the wrong video as soon as I saw the presenter.

              Edit: They used archive video as both Cane and Weber are in it.

                        @Yeetyaah I don't recognise him. He was in the FB video on the Chiefs website. Looks like a hooker or prop.

                          @Bovidae BOP don't have any player profiles with headshots on their website so can't pick it haha. Maybe one of the BOP stans can help.

                            @Yeetyaah I looked at the BOP team namings on FB and he doesn't look like one of their starters. I'm sure I've seen him before, but I have no idea who he is.

                              Looks like Lalomilo Lalomilo, perhaps? A giant wing / midfielder.

                                  He was very highly rated before last year - much like Narawa. Missing in action in 2020. Great to see him back now

                                    @bobily2 Yep, looks like him.

                                    @Bovidae He was named in the BOP Mitre 10 Cup squad for the 2020 season, but didn't play a single game. So probably injured, or not picked (which I find a bit hard to believe).

                                        I had mentioned Lalomilo Lalomilo when predicting the 2021 Chiefs squad, more based on his reputation than ever seeing him play.

                                          The Chiefs will already be running with one assistant coach less than last year, following the departure of Tabai Matson. McMillan confirmed Neil Barnes (forwards), Nick White (set pieces) and Roger Randle (attack) would continue with their same portfolios, while he and David Hill will split the defensive duties, with Hill also continuing his work with the kickers.

                                          I'm interested if the Chiefs will move to a rush defence, the system that Gatland has always favoured.
