He probably played Wesley a few times
-
The Chiefs acknowledge TTT's departure so hopefully we see his replacement announced soon. Roe is contracted until 2022.
-
@arhs he's been playing for Wellington so should be available. Wouldn't be a bad pickup for the Chiefs.

Hence Laban not always being correct I was taking the piss

In terms of the playing group, expect a largely unchanged roster to be reassembled. Two months ago Collins told Stuff around 30 of their 38-man squad for 2022 had already been locked in.
Old article but I'm just googling stuff for a smidge of info. Didn't realise this many were locked in already.

@yeetyaah It's hard to know who is contracted, and who isn't as not all of that info is released. Obviously, L Boshier and TTT have to be replaced, maybe Harris too. There are a few other players whose contract is up for renewal (Brown, Karpik, McWhannell, Parker) and then the DMac question.
-
I'm not overly excited but we do need a fill in for DMac and the existing options aren't that good.
Given how quickly this was announced you have to wonder if he was approached or was looking.
Obviously burned his bridges with Tony Brown big time and knew it.
Here's hoping that was a kick in the arse and he will use this season to showcase himself for further work.On another note have we found away for Gatland to get lost in the MIQ system?

Ioane's signing means that Trask will continue to be used more as a fullback than a 1st 5. That's where he has played most often in recent seasons for BOP and the Maori. I'm in two minds about this because I would like to see ENS and Stevenson given a chance there. I'm also not sure what this means for Rivez Reihana, and whether he has been re-signed.
For Ioane, he will either sign for another team in 2023 (NZ franchise or MP) or head overseas.

I thought in an earlier post or another thread it was determined he was signed for 2022...I really like the look of him though, hopefully Northland dont damage him!

Also insurance for when DMac's initial 12 months is up. He hasn't confirmed a return to the Chiefs (or even NZ).
It would be a surprise but maybe the stint overseas is also a way to break ties. Returning to a Gatland coached side may not be attractive to him but playing under Tony Brown in a covered stadium could be. -

I haven't read any info about the length of Reihana's contract, other than when the Chiefs 2021 squad was announced. @Stargazer might know.
I rate him too.

@bovidae Sorry, I've no idea about Reihana.
Interesting is that Tiaan Falcon only has one more year on his Toyota Verblitz contract. Not sure he'd want to get back to the Chiefs if Gatland is still the coach though, but he may be available again after next season.
