Robert van Royen's article about Bridge, also mentions the rumour about Kini Naholo returning.
I know He was offered a contract at the Chiefs and the Canes and he was leaving to take one of them up.
So I would say its the Chiefs by the sounds of the article.@Chris said in Chiefs 2023:

So it's highly like the Chiefs have signed Kini Naholo and Jacob Ratumaitavuki-Kneepkens for next season? What other wings/ outside backs are on the open market?

Malimali could be worth a punt. Some rough edges but power wingers are thin on the ground at the moment

Good call, he has been very good in the NPC high work rate too.
Seems to always create something when he has the ball. -

A quick look at the media guide says he isn't your typical tall Fijian winger either.
1.82 m, 98 kg. Would be 26 when SR started.

@Bovidae those stats don't scream "power winger" unless you're playing in the 80s.
Power in the sense that he runs hard, then uses late footwork to weaken the tackle and busts through.

We have rather different definitions of power winger! Doesn't DMac do the same?

@Bovidae glad to hear that one. If we keep all of our locks we probably have the best depth out of any super team.

Hurricane's fans ought to be fuming over their blatant stockpiling of talented second-rowers: Rettalick, Vaa'i, McWhannell, Ah Kuoi, Lord, (& Samipeni Finau covers lock adequately as well).

All too tall for the Canes recruiters
