    National Development Contract

    See this post in the Hurricanes 2023 thread; there are 20 of them in total. So some of the young guns (I assume mostly NZU20/NZU19 players).

      This year the Chiefs had:

      Adam Lennox (Taranaki)
      Josh Bartlett (Bay of Plenty)
      Mason Tupaea (Waikato)
      Nikora Broughton (Bay of Plenty)
      Veveni Lasaqa (Bay of Plenty)

      Broughton is now with the Highlanders so at least one new player. It could be a new intake every season.

        I saw someone on Insta ask for the WTG lists and they replied saying they would post. Maybe they will come out Monday as well.

            @Stargazer I wasn't sure if 'replacement players' meant WTG.

            I know that they are selected (Manawa as well). Just not publicly published yet.

              There is a short video on the Chiefs FB page. It's hard to pick out all the players featured but Burr and Coombes-Fabling are in shot.

                @Bovidae there's a couple I can't recognize. Lalomilo Lalomilo is also there.

                  Yeah, I thought he was there but wasn't 100% sure. Some of the same players used in the WTG this year.

                  Lord's mullet is looking good too. 🤣

                  Also, I think that is Cody Nordstrom behind LCF. He would be a good chance to be one of the NDC players.

                        @Crucial I can name Hamilton Burr, Liam Coombes-Fabling, Jacob Norris, Solomone Takuafu and Solomon Alaimalo is back! Heaps I can't name.

                          That did look like Alaimalo in the hoodie in the video.

                          The 2nd row also includes Taine Kolosi, Jadin Kingi, Jole Naufahu and Te Rama Reuben.

                          Toby Taylor in the front row.

                            Connor Collins from Wellington is another who is there.

                              That also looks like Adam Lennox next to him.

                              The player next to MSR could be Kauvaka Kaivelata, a prop from CM.

                                The Chiefs will need to find a new Head Coach.

                                  McMillan is the coach. Gatland was the Director of Rugby.

                                        Unfortunately for Gats, he'll statistically go down as the worst Chiefs coach. Can't speak for him as a person but something didn't click in the environment. He started the Chiefs off well pre pandemic then lost 8 games in a row which lead the to Chiefs leveling the worst losing streak in super history.

                                          Considering the other contenders to that title , that is some achievement.
