    That is disappointing. But makes some sense if his aim is national sevens squad. If Chiefs lured him and are letting the likes of Wrampling and Kneepkens go then I am annoyed with them.

    Was that on us or did he choose because his partner was up there too? (I seem to remember that his partner also plays)

          I think Dawai is the only real option, unless they go overseas

              I meant as a power winger, specifically - but there are a few talented wings running around

                  Anyone got anymore whispers of signings? I'm kinda bored and need some juice.

                    Who are the players that need replacing am guessing Sullivan, wainui, reihana, boshier, tahuriorangi perhaps poihipi and from the rumuors we have signed narawa,Thompson am hoping Cortez has a contract would love to have dyer or the big bop prop, wrampling I heard a rumour about moses Leo in this forum but am sure there will be a few surprises

                      @cliff Dyer would be the obvious choice if there are still doubts over Moli's availability to play. At the very least include him in the WTG.

                        The other thing is whether the Chiefs are going to appoint a new forwards coach to replace Barnes. That would be my preference rather than promoting Nick White (current scrum coach), as that wasn't a success the last time.

                              Maybe Stuff will also publish an article about the likely Chiefs squad before Monday.

                              By my count the only positions that may need to be filled are:
                              5th lock - I would re-sign Laghlan McWhannell if he is off-contract
                              2 loose forwards - options would be Karpik, Parker, Florence and M Jacobson (it might only be Boshier's replacement so one of the latter two)
                              3rd halfback - has to be Cortez Ratima
                              4th Midfielder - no Walden now to replace Sullivan, Wrampling is the obvious choice
                              6th outside back - the elusive power winger

                                  @yeetyaah It would be great if Jacobson was rewarded with a contract. I've said my piece about Karpik at SR level.

                                    At this point, we’ll the have the 3rd to 5th best NZ squad in the comp (good set of locks), so I don’t have a lot of hope for us. Perhaps a plucky win over the Blues or Saders would be a highlight, but I doubt either of those.

                                        @gt12 6 ABs in your pack plus an AB halfback and midfield. With the Blues losing three locks and Faiane, you should finish 2nd.

                                          @gt12 Christ mate where's the faith? Thought the same at the start of this year but Donk worked his magic. Plus Seanys passing might give the boys some massive motivation, they'll wanna win it in his memory.
