@Bovidae Yep, Apikotoa is really tall for a prop. Norris is 1.85m (110kg) according to his Chiefs' profile. Apikotoa is 1.91m (and approx. 120kg).
-
@Stargazer As you can see from the photo Norris is not 1.85 m. He's more like 1.95 m when you see him standing next to loose forwards or locks.

@Stargazer said in Chiefs 2021:
@Bovidae Yeah, might be a typo on the Chiefs' site.
Some of the player info is definitely not correct. Otherwise Norris is a young looking 51 yr old.
Josh Lord too! -

The Chiefs Rugby Club have today announced Gallagher Chiefs interim Head Coach Clayton McMillan has signed on as an Assistant Coach with the Gallagher Chiefs for 2022 and 2023. -
A predictable decision. To me, this means that Barnes will leave after this season and McMillan will take over as the forwards coach.
-
@Stargazer If that is Apikotoa there is video footage here:

I can also see Lisati Milo-Harris and Sekope Lopeti-Moli so they must be part of the extras. Maybe someone is at the training now to confirm.

@Bovidae Those images change way too fast for me to actually spot many individual players, except where they zoom in on them for longer. I don't like this kind of editing at all. Fortunately, a bit easier to pause the clip on instagram, but still no close-up of what could be Apikotoa.

I needed to enlarge the video myself.
If you pause the video 9 secs in you see him between Gatland and Roe. There is another extra player in that frame too (to the left of O'Neill).

yeah that was a bit of a shit clip...probably needs that epilepsy warning at the starts! sheesh

Extra players I saw:
Lisati Milo-Harris
Sekope Lopeti-Moli
Josh Iosefa-Scott
Viliami Taulani
Samipeni Finau
Stan van den Hoven
Kiniviliame Naholo (wasn't taking part)
Joe Apikotoa (confirmed after cross referencing his photos with a player I saw today)3 players I couldn't pick out, 2 wearing BOP shorts.
Atu Moli and Mitchell Brown were not taking part in training and just walking around.

@Yeetyaah Where the Chiefs wearing their purple training kit today?
There was a story about McMillan extending his contract on TV3 tonight and Rob Cobb was in the video. It could have been archive training footage from last year, but maybe there is another prop in the squad if Ross and Moli are still not fit.

@Bovidae I just tried watching that via their website, but those tools from Newshub have put the wrong video (from the Blues' training in the mud) in the article.
@Stargazer Yes, I did the same. I knew it was the wrong video as soon as I saw the presenter.
Edit: They used archive video as both Cane and Weber are in it.
