    @cliff Even for Waikato, they used Osborne more than Te Whare. You wouldn't think that a player of that build could be so quick.

    @bovidae and Osborne was very disappointing speaking of waikato I've seen seta tamanivalu in a couple of club teamsheets he could be looking to play for waikato

    @cliff yeah he's played for Matamata. Realised that he's married to a chick I went to school with so he's probably hanging around there.

    So looks like McKenzie may not be back for the Chiefs next year: a huge blow if true.

    @canes4life I hope it's only a sabbatical like contract and he comes back for the ABs aiming for the next RWC. I think his selection in the ABs this year might be a pointer that it is?

    @nepia yeah I hope he's back. I feel we really missed his impact off the bench at that last World Cup because of injury. Just adds that extra spark that no one else can IMO.

    At his age, with a WC 2 years away, he can fuck off and stay here.

    @gt12 nah I believe @Steven-Harris said he had a good source that Nock is heading to the Chiefs.

    Then I am pleased. I wonder if that means that Weber is moving on? He’s yet to be re-signed @Stargazer ?

    It's time for Weber to move on tbh. We've got Roe and possibly Nock. Unsure what TTT is up to.

    There was a dig at TTT in the Stuff article on the AB naming suggesting that after his one season selection he partied way too hard over the summer and burned some bridges. Could be gossip, could be the reason why even at the Chiefs he fell out of favour.

    He ended up #2 at the Bay behind Luke Campbell last year too…

    Most of his value comes at Super level, and he’s lucky to be in the ABs 23. Why give him a sabbatical?

    @donsteppa speaking of, Luke Campbell might be the unlucky one at the Canes if they go with Perenara, Roigard and Booth/Enari for next year. Is there room at the Chiefs for Campbell? I thought he was really solid for us the year.

    The first part of your post is straight up bullshit, he was freaking valuable in his last full non injury test series, as @Canes4life notes we missed his impact in 2019.

    Secondly, I don't think he's been given a "sabbatical", but if TJP can come back after a trip to Japan then I think DMac has got a reasonable chance of doing it too.

    I hope so. He’s a good player and it looks like he gives everything 100%.

    These fucking rugby players, giving their short game life and (probably) long term health , then expecting to make the most money out of it. Disgusting.

    Huge Retallic sized blow for the Chiefs. ABs have plenty of fullback cover. Though would mean they may need to revisit a 3rd 10 option.

    @yeetyaah I agree, the timing looks wrong. Too close to the RWC.

    Reading that article it also says that Reihana was only contracted for 2021 so no guarantee he is re-signed, now that he has moved outside of the franchise area.
