Foster's Game Plan Revealed
Kiwipie
Written by Kiwi Pie   
Monday, 15 March 2010

fosterAs long-term readers of the BoP Mafia website will know, we have only respect and admiration for the Chiefs super-coach Ian Foster and his long and proud tenure has brought glory to our franchise region. After the narrow defeat to the Crusaders last Friday, we heard some nay-sayers claiming that the super-coach doesn't have a gameplan for his clutch of outstanding individuals.

We at the BoP Mafia know this is a scandalous untruth, not only due to our admiration for super-coach but also because we were listening outside the Chiefs room just before they went out onto the field. So we know he had a plan and to prevent futher malicious rumours spreading, here is his speech in full.

The Chiefs team has been named for Friday night's game against the Reds in Hamilton.
 
1. Sona Taumalolo 2. Hika Elliot 3. Nathan White 4. Romana Graham 5. Culum Retallick 6. Liam Messam 7. Tanerau Latimer 8. Colin Bourke 9. Brendon Leonard 10. Stephen Donald 11. Sitiveni Sivivatu 12. Callum Bruce 13. Richard Kahui 14. Lelia Masaga 15. Mils Muliaina (captain)

Reserves: 16. Aled de Malmanche 17.Toby Smith 18. Jarrad Hoeata 19. Luke Braid 20. Junior Poluleuligaga 21. Mike Delany 22. Dwayne Sweeney

Amazing stuff. 3 wins from 3 on the road for the Chiefs, 2 bonus points secured and 7 out of the final 10 games are at home. This is strange territory for the Chiefs, who specialise in terrible starts followed by great runs and then a flop at the end of the season to miss the top 4 (except last season of course).
