Chiefs v Hurricanes

Tim

Will Retallick look like he gives a shit this week? I wonder what deal he's signed overseas?

ploughboy

i heard a couple of week ago he was gone after world cup.fairly reliable source

Chris

Great move putting DMac where he belongs at FB offset by his brother at First Five still trouble around the playmaking roles for the Chiefs

Damn, I was hoping they'd wait another week before making the change

Donsteppa

A better mix in the playmaker roles, but still a couple of curious choices on form. 0 - 5 looms.

@Stargazer Solomon too...

that's a foregone conclusion i am afraid

Chris

@canefan Yeah will add to the attack with D Mac at FB it may break down around M McKenzie and Weber. to offset that positional change.

Tim

The Chiefs are going to get an absolute hiding from the Bulls next week.

Tim

Retallick is probably due for a shoulder injury too.

@Nepia Either way, I really can't see them winning a game this season, outside of their home fixture against the Reds in May.

@Tim assume you are talking a fake one so he can just rest easy for the RWC and not play for this rabble?

Blues fans dining out. Being irrelevant for 15 years has them salivating at the thought of a worse NZ team than the Blues.

@mariner4life Which do you think will happen first, the Chiefs first win, or the first announcement that one of their senior players in joining another franchise?

It's still cricket season.

Tim

@mariner4life You go 0 and 8 on April 13.

ALB's likely to have exercised his out-clause before May 24 (Reds).
