Chiefs 2024

Commiserations chiefs fans, despite reaching the final we have looked off the pace throught the season, so who will be leaving Thompson? Stevenson? And who should we target next year. I felt lock and backup props were out biggest weakness and get backup hookers who can throw straight in the lineout, in the outside backs id like to see us sign codemeru Vai from sevens he is ten times the player coomble fabling is

Stevenson has been incredibly disappointing.
We’d be better with ENS at 15 I think.
For next year, a better back up 7, some fit locks and a better backup hooker (assuming we lose Thompson).
I think we over achieved this year after some of the injuries we’ve had. Fuck me, we had Tupou at lock (he went well, but he’s hardly good enough for anywhere except MP).

Said this a while back but from what I've heard, Leroy Carter is joining the Chiefs next year.
Halfback or wing?
Stevenson is signed until 2025. He had such on-off season with injuries/concussion that it affected his form.
I would think that Florence is also gone with Brown signed. If Sanerivi is to be the 3rd hooker he needs to get regular playing time at NPC level, presumably for Auckland. He was only the no.3 hooker at Taranaki, and sometimes played at flanker.
The final showed the absence of the likes of Retallick and Cane to provide that hard edge. 2023 was more of a missed opportunity.

I think Fiti Sa might step up from the development contract to a full-time deal next season pending how his start to the NPC season goes
Is he injured at the moment? Sa plays for Varsity in the Waikato club competition but I haven't seen his name listed. Maybe he is playing in Taranaki.
Sa is a big unit but still has plenty of developing to do. He has also had a few injuries, hence coming back as one of the Chiefs NDC players this year.

Chiefs were swindled.
