    Thompson is similar in height to Harris and Slater as a hooker. I always thought he and his brother looked much bigger than the average 1st XV player in their positions when I saw them live.

      When Tyrone was in his last year at school, the Napier coach already said he was taller than Codie Taylor, and a few kgs lighter. Codie Taylor is 183cm. Ty was already 186cm then. I doubt he's shrunk since then.

        We still need a strike weapon out wide and with naholo gone to the saders I wouldn't mind getting vereniki tikoisolomone seems to have some genuine pace and x factor also if tanielu telea is no longer with blues I'd look at him he has the tools to be a game breaker

          What are peoples thoughts on Dawai? Looks a bit flakey on defense, but might at least be a good squadie - with the hope he learns how to tackle.

            @bobily2 same thoughts. Good on attack, average on defence. Should add that I wouldn't mind him in the squad.

                @cliff I haven't seen a lot of him but from what I have he seems the part.

                  It appears that Narawa has signed for the Chiefs but is he any better than what the Chiefs currently have?

                  Lowe
                  ENS
                  Wainui
                  Stevenson

                  I don't think he is a guaranteed starter.

                    @bovidae I would have narawa and Lowe on either wings with ens off the bench at least narawa provides abit of size and has pace am not so keen on Stevenson or wainui

                      A lot better than Stevenson. Maybe he’s replacing him?

                        Stevenson is signed until 2023.

                        I'd like ENS to be the fullback but I expect McMillan will favour Trask. Just as long it isn't Tiatia.

                          There was the rumor in the Blues thread about Fihaki - if that happened I’d be stoked as he looks really good and could challenge for a wing spot.

                                      @gt12 was there? I didn't see anything about that. Might be wrong but isn't he a 10 and also quite small?

                                      He’s big.

                                        Narawa is fast but he isn't that big either. Similar height and weight to Lowe and ENS.

                                          I think Narawa has the potential to end up premier wing for Chiefs next year. Wainui the best currently.
