@bovidae Chelsea Alley is his partner so.....
Yeah, I know.
Chelsea is part of the Chiefs promotions so I doubt she is going anywhere. It will make conversations in the house interesting though.

Chiefs team is stacked tbh. I'd expect them to walk over the competition. Only local women I'm gutted we missed out on is Esther Tilo-Faiaoga and Renee Holmes.
I'd rather Holmes than Brazier, as the latter doesn't like tackling. Bunting has selected as many of his sevens players as possible.
And where's Kelsey Teneti?
Some of the players who played for the Chiefs womens team this year aren't in any squad now.
