Chiefs 2020
-
I was just reading that article. At the start of the season I was expecting ALB and either Manu or Nankivell to be the preferred midfield but Tupaea has started more often than Nankivell. I am sure even he is surprised by that.
What the Brumbies loss showed was that the likes of Boshier, Ardron, Weber and Alaimalo need to be starting.

For sure, especially Boshier, missed the niggle.
The Chiefs missed a presence at the breakdown outside of Cane. Karpik lacks size to have any effect at this level.
Going forward I would play Boshier at 6 and Cane at 7.

All Blacks: Midfielder Anton Lienert-Brown re-signs with New Zealand Rugby | Newshub
Midfielder Anton Lienert-Brown has re-signed with New Zealand Rugby until 2023.
Along with re-signing with NZR and the Chiefs, he's also recommitted to Waikato through to 2021.
Maybe planning on a Japanese contract in the off season?

The article on the Chiefs website (https://www.chiefs.co.nz/news-item/anton-lienert-brown-recommits-to-gallagher-chiefs) says ALB has only played 19 games for Waikato, and those would have been in 2014-15. ABs don't play for their province anymore so any overseas contract would have to be in the SR window.

@Stargazer Filipo was coaching Waikato in the CCCC, and might still have a house in Hamilton. I know some of the out-of-town Chiefs used to live there when he was overseas.
As to the team, excluding all of the BOP players unavailable, I expected Vaa'i to be involved, Finau as well. Maybe he is injured. I also don't remember Sullivan playing fullback before.
