Chiefs 2022
-
Who are the players that need replacing am guessing Sullivan, wainui, reihana, boshier, tahuriorangi perhaps poihipi and from the rumuors we have signed narawa,Thompson am hoping Cortez has a contract would love to have dyer or the big bop prop, wrampling I heard a rumour about moses Leo in this forum but am sure there will be a few surprises

Maybe Stuff will also publish an article about the likely Chiefs squad before Monday.
By my count the only positions that may need to be filled are:
5th lock - I would re-sign Laghlan McWhannell if he is off-contract
2 loose forwards - options would be Karpik, Parker, Florence and M Jacobson (it might only be Boshier's replacement so one of the latter two)
3rd halfback - has to be Cortez Ratima
4th Midfielder - no Walden now to replace Sullivan, Wrampling is the obvious choice
6th outside back - the elusive power winger -

At this point, we’ll the have the 3rd to 5th best NZ squad in the comp (good set of locks), so I don’t have a lot of hope for us. Perhaps a plucky win over the Blues or Saders would be a highlight, but I doubt either of those.
Your props,Hookers and LF,s are pretty good .

Outside backs have been pretty weak the past few seasons narawa is a good addition we need another strike weapon out wide
11, 14 and 15 are probably the only positions where you can't say for certain who McMillan will select in his best XV. The rest of the backline is predictable.
-
@cliff scrap the Moses Leo rumour, has been asked by NZ sevens to stay in their programme which also means he will be staying with harbour
-
@steven-harris Why would Leo have to stay with NH? Most of those sevens players end up playing for BOP if they are based there.
