Chiefs 2021
-
Is sowakula leaving?, I saw an article that he had resigned for next year but there is some rumours that he could be leaving and judging by one of his Instagram posts it could be true
-
@cliff He has signed through to 2023. I think his instagram posts are just referring to the end of the season and players leaving for their NPC provinces.
@stargazer fair enough we will need the depth

But tough on Roe, thought he ended up being pretty good. No memory of even seeing Poihipi on the park!

Yeah, Poihipi's first and only start was for the Chiefs B team against the Blues. He had been a reserve in one match prior to that.
As I said above, Finau had the most impact from the rookies across SRA. Perhaps they didn't want to choose a WTG player. So Roe then.

Got some oil yesterday that Lachlan Boshier is heading offshore after the Bunnings NPC..,no real surprise I guess given that’s he’s had no love from the All Black coaches ..
Also Jordie Barrett is a possible Chiefs signing for 2022. -

Also Jordie Barrett is a possible Chiefs signing for 2022.The first one there was assumed already, the second seems odd. I don't see the upside unless those that follow the gossip columns/ instagram know something?
Rugby wise the Chiefs have a pile of 10s/15s unless DMac at 10 is the future. Maybe JB has been promised a crack in the centres alongside ALB? If that worked it could be hi way out of the back three puzzle in the ABs. -

@machpants
If Boshier is off,I really hope it's a year or 2 in Japan. Damn shame if he is gone for good. -

@machpants ..you win some you lose some , on saying that you would be naive to think that his agent was negotiating with another franchise..

I personally appreciate it when you guys share some of the stuff you’ve heard, whether it turns out or not, because it gives us a peek into the ‘real’ world that you guys negotiate - and something for us to talk (bitch) about.

@gt12 much of my information comes through coaches that are close to the scene or fathers of players and in some cases the coaches themselves or in the case of Jordie Barrett a tip someone in the media who mentioned to me that Jordies agent was negotiating with a couple of franchises which happened to be both the Chiefs and the Canes but more likely the Chiefs ..aaahhh wrong ..!..Anyway I reckon this forum is the best place for getting potential player movements ..
There are some stories I actually sit on out of respect to the individual or the team , some of it not good . -

I'd have enjoyed it because we could then directly compare he and Dmac's terrible respective decision making on an objective basis.
