I presume Patrick McCurran has a gig somewhere else?
McCurran is a physiotherapist so maybe the "real job" is his main income. I assume that some players are approached to be in the WTG but decline based on their personal circumstances.
The Chiefs All Black XV players are back too, in the gym.

I don't think they ever not back in gym, even when not training with teams, think they still keep up a level of fitness.

This is abit of topic but if anyone remembers me asking about a player a few months ago that goes to my sons school who apparently played for the Chiefs…
Numi tepulolo That’s his full name if it rings a bell to any of you knowledgeable Chiefs fans.
is that like all the kiwis who turn up to Aussie rugby clubs?
Who did you play for mate?
The Bluesriiiiiight

@mariner4life Yeah I thought I could smell BS and was just trying to impress the kids.

An updated article about Solomon Alaimalo. He had other offers but chose the Chiefs.
Also of note:
McMillan said their All Blacks were due back on January 24. The All Blacks XV players return on January 9.

@Yeetyaah lol sliding into his DMs, trying to catfish him? Perhaps trying to convince him you were that well known chiefs legend Numi Tepulolo?
Superfan for sure!
