Ouchies.
Gatland 'needs to resign'
SPOTLIGHT: More pressure has been heaped on British and Irish Lions coach Warren Gatland after his Chiefs side slumped to a record-breaking eighth defeat in a row in Super Rugby Aotearoa.
Hahaha, a decimated squad and narrowly losing games has people throwing their toys out of the cot. That's before we raise the spectre that they've been robbed by contentious decisions.

Why Warren Gatland and the Chiefs shouldn't get a free pass for their form in Super Rugby Aotearoa
Whichever way the bread is sliced, it’s hard to deny that the Chiefs may be getting a bit of a pass for some of their failings in Super Rugby Aotearoa.

An article by Hamish Bidwell describes the wonderful Chief’s career of Aaron Cruden.He goes on to praise the work of Dave Rennie and Wayne Smith in the victorious 2012/13 team.,and rightly so.However it is surprising he does not mention the influential forwards coach ,who brought Brodie Retallick,Ben Tameifuna,Kane Thompson,Andrew Horrell,and Mahonri Schwalger to the Chiefs.The work he put into his pack is legendary. It is probably no coincidence that the Blues’ forward pack is now benefitting from his presence,one TJ Coventry.

@trodthesod it's not surprising when you realise it's Hamish Bidwell. Awful journo.

our successful period was built on "limited" players playing well above themselves. Add in a couple of game-changers like Retallick and SBW, and we were a force.

“And the Blues were still regarded as a team who gave up when things got hard “ Hamish Bidwell opines.This sort of criticism the Blues have endured for yonks .In sport nothing remains the same!

@Tim So why doesn't Gatland just bugger off to the NH already. Seriously, he is more interested in doing podcasts for Will Greenwood about the Lions tour, - plus talking to former England head coach Stuart Lancaster - than he is in fixing the ailing and losing culture in the Chiefs. Current coaches seem incapable of putting together a viable, winning gameplan.
Sod awrf I say, and take your stale and mouldy assistants with you. -

Just think about it. Hammer conveniently announces he is leaving the Highlanders, the Blues conveniently improve to provide a viable alternative to Chiefs fans who want to jump ship and the wonder coach conveniently fails then takes a year off. Even BBBR decided to take a year off to smooth the transition out.
