Chiefs 2018

There will be some versatility in the Chiefs back three. Alaimalo and Stevenson could be interchangeable at fullback/wing and throw in one of Pulu and McNicol, the latter having played fullback too.

From the article they (the Chiefs) say:
The club had planned to hold the Blues match at Yarrow Stadium in New Plymouth. Unfortunately, following recent developments in regards to the structure of the East Stand at Yarrow Stadium and due to the time constraints to ensure their facilities meet code requirements, it was deemed necessary to relocate this game. The Blues match will now be at FMG Stadium Waikato on Saturday 7 April.

Righto, have been out of the country and missed those issues at Yarrow

Kobelco Steelers players in the Dev team? I knew they were with the Chiefs, but isn't this odd?
I think it is part of the ongoing relationship/ support that the teams have. Started with CM years ago and both parties obviously feel there is value in it.
I think you may find young Chiefs guys getting some experience in Japan as well. -
Waikato have a relationship with Japanese Universities as well. Got a bunch coming now. My club Te Rapa will be getting a player or two. We had a couple last year and the winger was only knee high to a grasshopper but the way he played he had huge balls. Smashing bigger guys from the Waikato country clubs. Like a modern day Grant Batty. Only had them a short time which was a shame.
