Woohoo Tiatia is gone from the Canes I wonder if he didn’t get offered a new contract as I thought he was seen by the coaching staff as something special. It’s going to be weird seeing Lowe in a chiefs jersey saying that it’s not like he got a lot of opportunities in the Canes jersey

@Yeetyaah said in Chiefs 2021:
@Bovidae yeah McWhannell being the oldest at like 22 I think?
Yes. Hopefully McWhannell stays fit because I rate him as a lock. He might be the best option to start with Vaa'i.
It was always going to be Smith or Reihana once Gatland was signed.

thought norris still struggles at scum time but might be better with some locks behind him. sullivan for me is lucky as he hardly looked mitre 10 quality. i wonder if naholo is still injured as in his one run this year he looked to have a bit of spark.i feel squad iswhat i expected locks what i hoped for with alot of upside, midfield solid but lacking depth after top 3 and outside backs was hoping for knepkins

Absolutely stoked to see the move from Jonah Lowe confirmed. Hopefully, McMillan will give him the opportunity to play that he didn't get at the Canes.
I'm sorry to see McNicol miss out, but I guess he's had too many injuries over the years and it was too big a risk to signing him again. Really unfortunate, because he has the potential to be a good SR player. Only played 2 games for the Magpies, this year.
