    Bump Nanai-Williams to the wing and put Robinson at fullback. That's seriously quick, 9-15.

    Good for the chiefs,

    Where going to have to start a thread for the great SBW, Cooper double deal contract extravaganza of 2013, it's sure to be an epic drawn out overblown spectacular of epic proportions.

    SBW has said for a while that he prefers 1yr contracts so I don't think there's a lot to it.

    I don't mind the 1yr contracts. It kinda keeps both parties honest and you could argue that SBW has a lot more to lose than the franchise does. Look at QC..worth apparently $700,000-odd last year, now he's about half that.

    And SBW will get good conditions to play in; Forsyth-Barr Stadium is looking pretty schmick!

    Que? The Chiefs' home ground is Waikato Stadium in Hamilton, not Forsyth-Barr in Dunedin.

    Right you are, didn't eat enough brain pie obviously.

    How about. Hosea Gear will get the good conditions I alluded to earlier.

    Are we supposed to expect the chiefs to produce next season?

    Good god no. We could have the starting All Black 15 and we'd still end up mid table.

    Thump the reigning champion Reds one week, then lose to the rebels the next.

    Ah, love being a chiefs supporter

    If only Liam Messam could be cloned to play 1>8 then they'd have a chance.

    I really agree, I think it's pretty crap the amount of people who will tee off on how players are only in it for the money and are too confident and happy just collecting a pay cheque, as people are want to do with the Wallabies every now and then and with JOC/QC/SBW almost nonstop, and then slate them for putting it all on the line and backing themselves to be able to sing for their supper.

    Triple cliche in half a sentence. I don't know whether that's an achievement or a bannable offence.

    9. Kerr-Barlow 10. Cruden 11. Renata 12. SBW 13. Kahui 14. Masaga 15. Nanai-Williams

    If the Chiefs' tight 5 perform, look out.

    Bloody obvious him and Cooper will be going to the NRL in 2013 imo.

    Although knowing Khoder SBW will end up in soccer and quade in golf so he can really get some commission

    I don't get the Khoder hate. His job is to do his best for his clients. You'd have to say he does a pretty good job.
