<p>And a full explanation from Chief's loose forward Tevita Koloamatangi.</p> -
<p>It's distinctly unsporting to bring facts to a Fern discussion Chris! For shame. Actually those don't really refute my point anyway - one is from 2010 and the other says he's a specialist 7 but needs to play 7 at Ta$man due to Christie being there - and they're both discussing Ta$man, not the Chiefs. </p>

<p>Just reassuring you that you've got lots of cover
- he's even apparently played more at 8 than I recall - though to be fair I haven't seen much of him in the past couple of years due to the Chiefs carelessly breaking him and most of the other players we've loaned you bastards for the past couple of years.</p> -
<p>Koloamatangi will only be on the bench. I'd say he covers 6 and 7 after Boshier, with Cane the other option at 8.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Rennie has 2 options:</p>
<p>(1) the loose forwards that started vs the Crusaders (Seu, Cane, Sanders)</p>
<p>(2) the loose forwards that started vs the Reds (Sanders, Boshier, Cane)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'd go with option 1 but that means Retallick and Bird will probably have to play the full 80. </p>
