Chiefs 2025

@Mauss

It was probably Leo Ngatai-Tafau.

Mataele is a such a meh selection. I would have rather they choose a younger winger from the region as cover.

[Yeetyaah]

@Bovidae agree on Manasa. Surely we can have Tuivailala back in exchange

[Bovidae]

The AB XV players are back but no photo of Stevenson. The wait continues...

[Bovidae]

This looks to be the 2025 training jersey. Less is best.

[Yeetyaah]

@Bovidae they used that last year for team runs, was the jersey for the non-playing side for the week.

Just heard a Chiefs All Black is out for most of super rugby. Could be back in last couple of rounds if all goes well.

[Bovidae]

@chchfanatic Come on, tell us who.

Stevenson gone already, if it’s McKenzie that will be a huge blow. Sititi based on last year will be an even bigger blow.

If it’s Lord well that’s not the biggest loss considering he’s been injured for a good part of the last few years anyway.

Got any confirmation of that?

[chchfanatic]

Wallace. Heard the week before Xmas he’s out for 5 months.

[Yeetyaah]

@chchfanatic fuck sake

[chchfanatic]

@Yeetyaah yeah no good. Did his knee in the French or Italian game. I’d had a few beers so can’t remember exactly when he did it. But it was worse than first thought. Not ACL. PCL or MCL I think.

He doesn't look too bad a week ago? Pre surgery maybe?

[Bovidae]

I assume the full squad is back from next week so I might go and have a look to see who is training. Particularly if Stevenson is there, as he didn't appear to be participating pre-Xmas.

[Yeetyaah]

@Bovidae are you allowed to just pop down and watch?

[Bovidae]

I haven't been in a while but the trainings at Ruakura aren't closed to the public. The hardest part is knowing which time they are out on the field, usually in the afternoon.

[Yeetyaah]

@Bovidae ah yeah easy, right around the corner for me so might try my luck.

[chchfanatic]

@Yeetyaah I’m not sure he ever had surgery. Think it might just be a time thing with those.
