Chiefs 2025

[OleOleOle]

@Bovidae RIP Shaver, a really good human, always good for a chat. So sad to hear he has passed. Condolences to his family.

[Bovidae]

There will be a new scrum coach, a position previously held by Nick White.

Tributes flow for popular rugby figure and ex-cop - Paul Galletta

Interested to see if Josh Jacomb will get much game time next season with DMac obviously the first choice.

[Bovidae]

There are photos on FB, which show Benet Kumeroa amongst the players assembled. There may be some other extras there too.

Admin days to start the ‘25 season complete ✅ How good to have these faces back at HQ 🙌🏽.

Leo ngatai from counties also there

[Bovidae]

A few other young players too - Tai Cribb and Dylan Eti. Possible NDC players? Manaaki Boyle-Tiatia.

Narawa in a sling.

[Bovidae]

Taine Kolose is also with the Chiefs, which makes sense with the hooker situation.

Jacob Norris too. I'm not on FB so can't see all of the photos. Maybe someone can have a quick look at the photos posted in recent days to see who else is shown.

[Bovidae]

Charlie Sinton also training. I thought he would be a good chance of being one of the NDC players.

Other players I could recognize were Grady Forbes, Oscar Koller and Micah Fale.

[Bovidae]

Micah Fale might be another of the NDC players then. I had him on my list of possibilities. Maybe an outside back for the last position (e.g., Frank Vaenuku).

@Yeetyaah

Ross's impending departure makes the loss of Kauvaka Kaivelata more puzzling. Josh Bartlett is now with the Highlanders so maybe Mason Tupaea gets a full contract.

I feel Benet Kumeroa has the goods to succeed.

He's more of a TH isn't he?

[ARHS]

Yeah, not thinking about who might or might not want to switch sides.

[Yeetyaah]

Manasa Mataele in the 4th picture

[Bovidae]

Who is that in the 6th photo?

[mikedogz]

It might be Joshua Gray
