crustyngrizzly 1,700 Report post Posted July 12, 2014 News out today that the Chiefs are to target an eels player for recruitment.Whats happened to the much yaunted rugby academy.Why have an academy if players are going to come from offshore or another code. Meanwhile in the shitty Waikato weather hundreds of club rugby players who earn nothing from the sport will try to enhance their prospects of promotion to a higher grade by running around in the slop and theshit of Waikato rugby fields.Give up you guys promotion ain't gonna happen,when they can get players elsewhere.

Killafornia 65 Report post Posted July 12, 2014 The Chiefs are a franchise, not a representative side. Most of their side comes from outside the Waikato. Are you confusing representative rugby like the ITM cup with the franchise system of the Super 15? And why pick a club rugby player when there are much better options for them on the free market? It's professional sport FFS! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crustyngrizzly 1,700 Report post Posted July 13, 2014 The problem is that these players do come from other areas and then stay on for the ITM cup therefore making it next to impossible for a club player to attain higher honours.As for the super 15 or 14 or 18 being fully proffessional it's not because there are too many restrictions on who can and can't play for a kiwi franchise.
