@higgins I always assume (and that may be entirely wrong), that several provinces giver their wider training group the name of their development team. Like Hawke's Bay Saracens up until the Magpies squad is named; Manawatu Evergreens; etc.

Here are the updated squads for the games tomorrow.

Like Alaimalo at the Chiefs, Tiatia also got out of the last year of his contract with the Canes.
-
Instead, he is embracing the ‘super-sub’ role – one which looks set to continue for him against the Blues in Hamilton on Saturday night, with the Chiefs likely to stick with Kaleb Trask and McKenzie as their starting 10-15.
No McKenzie at 10 this weekend then. Article also mentioned that Tiatia signed a. 2 year deal.

I think moving DMac during a game is a good option. He doesn’t do as well at 10 when he starts there. Starting at 15 gives him a chance to watch the pattern of play from the opposition and take advantage of it later on.

@stargazer Nah, ENS is the only Chiefs winger who has looked threatening with the ball so far. Wainui is more likely to be at centre or in the reserves (my preference if he is in the 23) than on the wing.
