[QUOTE="Caitlyn Jenner, post: 869147, member: 74470"] Despite the departures it's still a very well rounded and strong side... the new inside backs combo might end up being more dangerous than the last one. A marquee back 3 signing should definitely be a high priority for Cooper at this point... Pulu is a great athlete but imo just an OK rugby player, and while SS and Alaimalo are very promising they're still green and relatively unproven. I think signing just one player with established class in that back 3 would really complete the backline. I've thought for a while that Nanai would be the ideal guy to sign... Tana inexplicably refuses to start him at the Blues and he he's a great player with genuine X-Factor so a move to the Chiefs would benefit everyone involved imo. I do get the feeling that this group of players may take a couple of seasons to gel and we might see a less successful Chiefs under Cooper... they have plenty of potential in that squad though so I wouldn't bet against them.
