@Kiwiwomble said in Chiefs 2021:
you let Nel go? i doubt we need yet another loosie but he's been real good in this years NPC, anyone else still looking for a loosie?
Only an assumption on my behalf. Maybe @Stargazer knows the length of Nel's contract but I wouldn't be surprised if it was only for 1 year. I thought Nel did OK in his limited opportunities but he doesn't demand selection. Nel also lacks size to be a SR-level no.8.

Is Lolagi Visinia signed anywhere? Prefer nz qualified locals by far but he is right type of player Chiefs need.
-
@ARHS Lolagi Visinia is NZ qualified, just not from the Chiefs catchment (not that that matters nowadays). He has played sevens for NZ.
@Stargazer All good. Saw an article years back looking at capturing he and others through CG loophole. But never happened. Hope he gets picked up somewhere if he is staying.

It's time for him to start playing somewhere in the region of the hype he has received.

yeah, he's been pretty ordinary so far.
he's hardly alone in that though

ENS showed very good metres gained in NPC and broken tackles. His big work on is what to do once that run finishes. Lots of times he held on two steps too long. If he was a hungus that was still getting through and scoring in those situations it wouldn’t be so bad, but Masaga he isn’t.
Good coaching can work on that. He is definitely finding a way to play with big boys and with less room. -

@Machpants right? We call it a caretaker in NZ.

And sweeping around to collect the missed tackles?
