@Bovidae said in Chiefs 2021:
I've lost count on how many operations McWhannell has had in the last 3 years.
I suppose that means van den Hoven would come into the main squad.
who would win an operation count out of him and Tucker?!

Tucker for the seriousness of his injuries. McWhannell's injuries have been restricted to his legs/knees, while Tucker has had major operations on shoulders and knees.

Ah Kuoi
Josh Lord
Laghlan McWhannell
Tupou Vaa'iShame we lost Allardice and Retallick won't be back till next year. Look very weak in second row, even if I am a fan of Vaa'i.

Inexperienced is the word I'd use. Vaa'i and Ah Kuoi to start again with Brown off the bench is probably the best option. I hope Lord get his chance too but he will need to add some bulk.

Not sure if I am slow on this news but Lindenmuth and Vialame Taulani have been added into the Chiefs training as cover (Steelers news says 'Chiefs Squad').

That looks like Lindenmuth in the photo with Taulani?
Moli is still not training, and Ross is coming back from an operation so they will be short of props.

Can't complain about Lindenmuth tbh, he's a decent player and seems like a good dude off the field.

I see that a Chiefs U20s wider training squad has also been in camp. Having a quick look at the photos I recognise a few players.

@Stargazer Don't be expecting Waikato to do the same.
A few of the Waikato players I can recognise are Hakaraia Richards-Coxhead, Mason Tupaea and Campbell Robb (all front rowers). Also looks like Te Rama Rueben, who I thought would be BOP. Obviously not.
