    Only if there is a lack of balance in the loose forwards in the squad - again. A lot of 6/8s but not enough 7s.

    @ploughboy The Stuff article is saying what you think, i.e., Jacobson will play 7. He's obviously going to be the captain too. Cane's impending move to Japan has been known for a while so they (hopefully) have planned for this and have suitable replacements in place.

    Bold move by Cane, he basically cedes his starting spot to Paps and potentially his place in the team altogether.

    @Windows97 yeah that could be his AB career done bar injuries. I have the Chiefs favourites for the 2024 Super title but he will leave a large(ish) gap no doubt.

    Chiefs don't appear to have signed that many for next year, is the roster finalised or not?

    Cane made his Chiefs debut in 2011 so has been playing SR for a long time.

    @Windows97 I also thought initially this was him giving up his All Blacks spot, but Razor is a smart man. Would be a major call to dump the current captain straight away, when the current playing group clearly love him. Might well get him offside with a few people when he doesn't need to.

    I think it is more likely he slowly phases him out, letting him get to 100 caps (probably not as captain though).

    @frugby My thoughts will be that Cane will be in the team, but probably not starting or captain of the team.

    Whether he gets back to starting or captain will be dependent on how well whoever plays at 7 goes.

    Of course wild speculation on my part πŸ™‚

    Nice try. He's off on sabbatical.

    Well if they pick Harmon for even a single game as AB7 in the near future I'm going to go a full RancidS...

    Aaron Goile also thinks that Reuben O’Neill will be one of the replacement TH props, but the interest will be in who is the other. An established prop to be 3rd in line or take a punt on a young player?
