Chiefs 2021

Someone said in the Blues thread that the Chiefs have signed Sam Nock I think. I think I feel good about that.

I said it wouldn't be bad signing but I'd pick him to go Saders or Moana Pasifika.
McWhannell should not be signed, we should keep Finau and Ah Kuoi ahead of him. If he goes onto be an AB after getting healthy, that's too bad.

Moana Pasifika.
Are they actually going to be a real franchise next year or in 2023?
Very little evidence of them signing anyone for next year.

Good question, but assuming that they are going to play, they'd make an interesting destination for players who aren't quite getting the chances they should/could get (Nock, Joane).

@gt12 nah I believe @Steven-Harris said he had a good source that Nock is heading to the Chiefs.

Then I am pleased. I wonder if that means that Weber is moving on? He’s yet to be re-signed @Stargazer ?

@gt12 Yep.
I love his box kicking and pass so he could be a proper weapon for Dmac at 10.

It's time for Weber to move on tbh. We've got Roe and possibly Nock. Unsure what TTT is up to.

We still need another lock in the squad as I wouldn't want Finau (or Brown) to be considered a real option at lock. Both are more suited to 6.

Shouldn't Finau take Brown's spot? Or is he staying? If we have to keep Brown and lose Finau, I'll be pissed.
With BBBR, Vaii, and Lord, we should have enough height so Ah Kuoi and Finau as 6/locks wouldn't be too bad,
However, I do agree about another lock, despite his background and my assessment of his character, Selby Rickett would make a nice bench lock / lock for the rotation as well.
I just don't want to end up carrying McWhannell for another year, so he should go to a WTG (at absolute best) or be moved on.

Most squads carry 5 locks. I assume Brown is still contracted and he appears to be one of the leaders.
Agree about McWhannell. He needs to play a full season for Waikato to prove his fitness. Finau could take his position. Someone will also have to replace L Boshier too.

There was a dig at TTT in the Stuff article on the AB naming suggesting that after his one season selection he partied way too hard over the summer and burned some bridges. Could be gossip, could be the reason why even at the Chiefs he fell out of favour.

If we are carrying Brown as a lock, our problems are just as likely to continue then.

@ploughboy I am really hoping naholo Jr gets over his injuries obviously the chiefs value him hence why he has been training with the team this year he could give us the xfactor we need out wide

I'm still not sure I believe the hype over Naholo the younger.
