          I'm honestly hoping that every young first five goes well at the moment - if we happen to turn up the future at the chiefs, it would be very sweet.

          Plus he's (apparently) related to Bruce, so he should really turn out for TAS too, in which case I'll love him forever regardless.

              Based on these Jona Mataiciwa is also part of the extended squad.

                    @Yeetyaah He was poached by St Kents from New Plymouth, so maybe he is back in the Naki.

                        I don't think so. He would be the same age as Wrampling so still young. It looks like Mataiciwa was one of the stars in the Ignite7 series in 2019, so maybe more involved in sevens to date.

                            Mataiciwa might have ended up at the sevens base at the Mount.

                            There are three young outside backs in the WTG (Wrampling, Naholo and Mataiciwa) so good to include some emerging talent from the region. No Lalomilo Lalomilo though?

                                  So, can we conclude from the fact that the Chiefs have tagged Sky Sport, that it will be televised? The game still doesn't appear in the online tv guide ...

                                    @Stargazer maybe they tagged them to let them know the game is on? 😉

                                        The team to play the Hurricanes is the more experienced of the two, but I wouldn't read too much into the overall selections in pre-season games.

                                        One thing that did stand out to me was the locking combos in each game. Ah Kuoi and Finau are on the shorter side while Lord and Van den Hoven are both 2 m locks. I would have thought you would selected a shorter and tall lock together.

                                          The team to play the Hurricanes is the more experienced of the two, but I wouldn't read too much into the overall selections in pre-season games.

                                          One thing that did stand out to me was the locking combos in each game. Ah Kuoi and Finau are on the shorter side while Lord and Van den Hoven are both 2 m locks. I would have thought you would selected a shorter and tall lock together.

                                          @Bovidae Perhaps an opportunity to directly compare 'talls' and 'shorts' side by side in the same game?
