What about McCurran and Leroy Carter ? They looked the goods in the NPC.
McCurran wasn't even in the original Waikato squad. Simon Parker is fit again (after multiple injuries/surgery) so will provide more depth at loose forward.

Here you go @Stargazer. A day late.

Looking into the future, Gatland will be gone by 2024 as he is in his last year of his contract next season. DMac will likely cash in in Japan or Europe so Trask will be their no.1 option at 1st 5. Reihana could be his backup, with Cashmore and Kemara underneath that. That looks like a decent succession plan to me.

Stevenson to the NRL?

While he has looked consistently handy recently, I would hardly describe him as a marquee signing like the article does. Hardly anyone will know who he is. They are not going to get excited over signing a player who is in and out of a Super Team.

it was mentioned in the Southland v NH match thread by @Nogusta on the weekend and he usually has good sauce!

I doubt Retallick stays post-2023 RWC so the Chiefs need to do everything they can to retain the locks they currently have.

Does this mean MSR is a replacement for Brown...meaning Ah Kuoi can slot into the role Brown filled...6/Lock, he has done that well for BOP this season

Good call. Interesting for MSR to pick Chiefs though given the second row numbers there already. Maybe they all know something about time management for BBBR in the RWC year?

I still believe that the Chiefs will be lacking cover for Cane unless someone else is leaving, or one less back is selected. I don't want to see Luke Jacobson being used there, or Boshier.
-
@Tim For a backup openside, the main options within the franchise area would be Mitch Jacobson, Jacob Norris and Tom Florence. All have been playing well, although Florence has been absent a lot.
