Chiefs 2020

[Bovidae]

So by my count only Sullivan, McWhannell and McNicol won't have played any minutes this year. The latter 2 players are injured while a few others like Falcon, Leger and Maka have only appeared off the bench in the Sunwolves game.

[Yeetyaah]

@Stargazer strange, would he still be head coach and McMillan be booted? I didn't really get that answer from the article unless I missed something? I think honestly it would be best if gats remained head coach if he is around next year for the sake of team culture. I dunno.

[gt12]

You'd think they'd do a deal for Gats to stay as head and give McMillan a continuing asst. role? Right now he's on a one year head then gone deal, so a two year asst. coach deal would be better for him (I'm not so sure about how him - what's the word?)

So will get paid what he is worth based on results so far?

Too harsh???

I was going to suggest the Chiefs pay him not coach the team next year, but your plan is probably better.

Might wanna take a look at that league guy Farrell.

[Yeahtheboys]

@Bones I mean ofc id want him as a player but he’s jsut A c*nt aye so no thanks

[Yeetyaah]

I'd rather shit in my hands and clap than have either of those 2 fluffybunnies in the Chiefs.

[pukunui]

Unless they are turning up with a cheque for millions of pounds made out to the NZRU they can fuck right off.

It’s bad enough that the coach is fucking off for the year but to use the Chiefs as a glorified training camp is an insult.

[sparky]

Bizarre suggestion. Some guy from the Chiefs region who has busted his gut through the Mitre 10 & in pre-season has to make way for Mako Vunipola or Duncan Taylor so they can get up to speed ahead of the B&I Lions tour? Great way to turn the fans away.

I feel like this has been DMac's go to move this SRA.

Great suggestion to bring superior players in for the Chiefs players to learn from. It reminds me of many young boxers studying prime Frans Botha much to their benefit.

I watched the game between the canes and chiefs and the skill level was appalling with many forward passes and it was just everywhere. Chiefs are the worst of a mediocre bunch and anything to strengthen them and the New Zealand game should be considered due to their emphatic decline to also rans of the rugby world.

Right now New Zealand are a laughing stock of world rugby, no one wants to play in competitions with them so they are forced to go alone, so they should be looking at these opportunities to improve what will be a weak competition moving forward.
