Chiefs 2022

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.
-
It appears that Narawa has signed for the Chiefs but is he any better than what the Chiefs currently have?
Lowe
ENS
Wainui
StevensonI don't think he is a guaranteed starter.

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.

I wonder if we’ll get a surprise?
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.

No Mate false rumour that one.

Dammit. I reckon that kid could wear a black shirt - I’m not sure why they wanted Kini.

To replace Matale, Fihaki being lined a up as a FB.

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

So what is the Chiefs starting backline looking like now?
9 Weber
10 Ioane
11 Wainui/ENS
12 Tupaea
13 ALB
14 Lowe/Narawa
15 Trask/ENS/Stevenson@bovidae said in Chiefs 2022:

15 Trask/ENS/StevensonThere's a fair bit of love for Wainui among the coaches. I seem to remember them commenting on his professional approach and experience. Something they will value.
I would like to see ENS at 15 but even Counties won't/don't give him a shot there. Maybe a bench spot in the 'top' setup?
They like a kicking option at 15 so Trask will likely get the nod. Stevenson has a massive boot but only seems to use it as last option under pressure. Would like to see him develop and start using that kick to better effect turning teams around/50/22s etc.
