    @bovidae my son has seen him in action coaching and mentoring and was very impressed. He has the talent for a good career after his training. Sad to see his career hurt so much by injuries.

          I was hoping they would go for Regan Ware. Dawai has limited confidence under high ball but is an imposing figure

            I like dawai he has plenty of x factor and size which we really lack defence and high ball skills can be improved

              I would also hope we signed George dyer, tom Florence, wrampling and Cortez ratima a backline of 9 Weber 10 josh ioane 11 Mosese dawai 12 tupaea 13 alb 14 narawa 15 nanai seturo could cause some damage

                He still looks very raw, and prone to mistakes. Tikoisolomone is a more complete winger at this stage.

                  Tikoisolomone in nz babas team to play heartland so would mean he hasnt been signed

                    Speaking of which, I assume that Bent will be replaced in the Baabaas team.

                        Does Bent have a SR Contract ?.

                                The Chiefs would be stupid not to have him involved. I did see Moli there last night during the warmups, so whether Dyer is part of the main squad may depend on his fitness.

                                He looks like a prospect.

                                Yes, getting better with more gametime. Dyer was in the same NZ U20 team as Norris. Just turned 22.

                                  hard to see any changes at prop foe chiefs but if he is signed dont think he will let us down. should be training with them at least

                                    He was in the Blues WTS last year. Has potential to be better than the Lay brothers for sure.

                                          Good squad, a bit light in the outsides, but overall some good picks for the future (Finau, Ratima, Reihana, Wrampling)
