<p>How so? If you're talking about the Canes game a few weeks back, they have to declare what position their props cover before the game.</p> -

<p>Because after said game Rennie said he was incapable of playing tighthead.</p> -
<p>which is why he has been training to be able to cover TH I expect?</p>
-
<p>convenient that their versatility was exposed 4 weeks ago and they have worked hard with a player to ensure it doesn't happen again?</p>

<p>Did Rennie ever say he hadn't played tighthead? He just said he wasn't good enough as a tighthead didn't he? I'm assuming the Highlanders were following the same storyline when they pulled the same trick on their home ground but weren't forced to drop a player out of the team. ;)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Edit: Ploughboy beat me to it.</p> -
<p>well we get told that ITM Cup is so far from the quality of Super rugby that playing TH in that comp probably means little?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>At any rate, they obviously felt he wasn't up to it, which is why they have been working to make him better</p> -

<p>So you're saying that because they knew Fisi'ihoi is a shit TH that they'd be better off going to golden oldies?</p> -

<p>you don't have to, SANZAR are the ones the Chiefs had to convince, and they obviously did.</p> -
<p>As long as we can all accept that it was gamesmanship then I'm happy to move on... :)</p>
