    @yeetyaah Shit, yeah, I only noticed now there are two. Maybe @Duluth or another mod can merge them?

    Let's see who replaces him. Wrampling? It better not be Poihipi.

    I hope Bailyn gets signed by someone else.

    @bovidae My first thought was the question whether this was part of a swap with the Highlanders, with Josh Ioane going in the other direction. Bailyn to cover for Nareki during his injury recovery? Just wondering, I have no idea!

    hopefully he will, a guy who never quite nailed it. when you thought he had turned a corner he would come up with mistake. his two games for waikato this year were some of his best rugby so thought they may have kept him.
    would be surprised if it wasnt wrampling , expect poihipi to be shipped too

    Disappointed by this. He was hard done by for opportunities. I would have kept him ahead of Lowe, Stevenson and Poihipi.

    That's the thing. Only a handful of games (8?) over 4 seasons, and not many minutes in total.

    Sullivan wouldn't be getting many opportunities in the midfield next year but looked more than useful on the wing.

    Actually, the wording of the statement implies that Sullivan may have asked for a release himself.

    No, No, and yes.

    I completely agree that he has been given fuck all opportunities, because from memory he also had a pretty good start, then suddenly went to the wilderness.

    The go well on their tweet seems to suggest he's signed with someone else, unless I'm reading too much into it of course.

    @daffy-jaffy You lucky sods. He has line-breaking ability and genuine sustained pace. Needs work on defence though.

    I was told that Reihana won't be back for the Chiefs. This decision was made before Ioane was signed.

    Maybe the Blues pick him up.

    @bovidae lame, I quite liked him as a prospect. Smith to take his spot possibly?

    That feels like a bad decision there by the Chiefs, but I’ll admit I have little to base that on - what’s the oil from those who have seen more of him?

    I don't know about Smith but I doubt it with 3 1st 5s in the squad. Trask isn't much older than Reihana.

    No idea. I'd say he is playing for his spot in the NPC. If he stays fit McWhannell can be a really good lock.

    Trask is quite a bit better at FB though. I think they could have found the space. However it’s Gatland who I’m not sure about most there.
