    JRK and Tangitau both have resigned , both till at least 2027 but one of them till 28 I believe.

    i hope so, those two plus Big Jim and Holland has to be promising enough to attract new guys

    Nothing like picking up a world class player that should be playing international level from the canes 3rd XV.

    If you nail Jacomb and get this right...

    We might need to nickname you Santa. Don't come often. But always deliver the goods.

    Good on him for always sharing sauce and being very specific about it.

    He better bring some good news to the Chiefs at some point....

    not only staying in dunedin next year...through till 2028! thats a big extension

    thats hugely reassuring, not just the quality of the players we're keeping, theyre happy to commit long term, not just one season extension, all four that have extended have to be pushing for the AB's ad feel Dunedin can get them there

    I think this also dispels the rumours that it is a toxic camp. Four very good players all re-signing, who could easily have left if this was the case.

    i hope so, or at very least maybe if there was tension, its has been sorted....or the culprit isn;t coming back?

    There were tensions because guys were frustrated about results, but that is incredibly normal. At no stage was it ‘toxic’.

    Alongside Fakatava re-signing five of the key guys all saying we are in for the long-term.

    They may grumble about Jake being a hard arse. But he is keeping the guys we need.

    Very, very, very good. He still drives the team culture, all the boys love him.

    Do people not want people to post rumours? George's hit rate isn't as good as Nogusta but it's better than plenty of others

    I would rather people post what they hear

    Rumours are great, they are what makes this place. It is just funny when there is a sheer reluctance to accept facts that debunk the rumours. Keep the rumours coming. Just admit it is ok to be wrong.
