@Tim well it would be nice to have a player like that at the Chiefs - instead of some of the old broken arses we currently have....I;m looking at you Cruden...Thomson

[Bovidae]

Is anyone else going to the Chiefs-Blues game in Waihi? I've been to Waihi many times but never to watch rugby. Reports indicate a good crowd for the game.

Pretty comprehensive looking list

Super Rugby ins and outs for 2020

Ahead of Super Rugby 2020, we go through the ins and outs in terms of player movement, including Beauden Barrett's big switch to the Blues.

[Higgins]

@Machpants Thanks for that. The sunwolves have over 60 players in their "Outs" section and about 25 in the "Ins" list. Their changing rooms must be about the size of a mega shopping mall if they had that many players on the payroll.

Isn’t he older than Cruden - what’s his brokenness like?

[Jailbreak7]

@Bovidae if I wasn't working I'd be heading over.

@Jailbreak7 I'd say the Chiefs are the last team that needs a midfielder. I think they have the best midfield depth in the comp.

Somehow the halfback manages to look short even in head shot profile photo.

Storms are predicted so it could be wet conditions.
