    @Yeetyaah I drove past Ruakura today and there were heaps of players and others on the field. The WTG will be training full time with the main squad.

    @Crucial will be interested in who else is in that photo. Is she part of the Chiefs Manawa WTG?

      Chiefs still haven't filled the vacancy left by Gatland, currently have McMillan, Randall & White on the staff, they're needing a 4th coach.. I'm waiting for Rennie to be announced as a technical coach for the 2023 season.

        Jono Gibbes is getting the sack, so there's another option to replace Gatland with the Chiefs forwards.

          Talk of the new forwards coach has gone quiet. First, we heard they were wanting to have that decision made before Christmas, but nothing. Maybe an announcement will be made this week as the squad has returned to training. They were looking local.

            @kiwi_expat fuck me wouldn't complain tbh. Funnily enough I got my hands on his 2004 semi-final match worn Chiefs jersey last week.

                @Yeetyaah I noticed that Gatland's profile in the Chiefs coaches webpage was removed today so maybe they finally announce a new forwards coach.

                  Liam Coombes-Fabling coming in first at the Bronco with 4:17. Ratima very close behind him. Roe at 4:22.

                      that photo...

                      this is supposed to be a professional organisation right? look at that photo. That's park football right there.

                        I was wondering who would offer Feeney a job. He's too good to be just coaching club level in Harbour.

                        He had Auckland playing some very good attacking rugby a few years ago. His time at the Blues was brief.. I think he was a useful scapegoat

                          I was right that Filipo was a good option. He can still continue with Waikato.

                            It's preseason, man I went to a Reds preseason training a few years back, and when I saw everyone in daggy shorts and singlets kind of made me realise yeah it's preseason etc.

                              Chiefs Insta shows ALB and Sam Cane bronco photos. I assume that means they are nearly caught up on their base programmes to the main group.

                                There were also some photos of Tupaea doing weights without any obvious strapping on his knee.

                                    Yeah, but I dont think they did the bronco at the same time. Most of the squad did an indoor test and these photos were of them completing it outdoors.

                                        @kiwi_expat because, unlike the other sides, the Chiefs have elite coaching to make up for a lack of elite talent

                                        I notice no one has - so far - has suggested the Chiefs have the elite fans?

                                          I don’t think the ABs have had a camp have they? That’s probably an old photo.
