Chiefs' long-serving star speaks on 'bad attitude'

Kaizer Chiefs’ long-serving defender Reeve Frosler has opened up on his reduced game-time this season, having played the full 90 minutes on two occasions this season.

The 28-year-old has proven to be one of Amakhosi’s most productive outlets towards the end of the season. In his seven years at Amakhosi, Frosler has offered a balanced contribution in both his defensive and attacking duties.

The wingback, though, experienced periods of significantly reduced game time during the 2025/26 season due to a combination of severe injuries and intense tactical competition at right-back.

The arrival of Thabiso Monyane and the emergence of Dillan Solomons have provided stiff competition for Frosler.

As a result of these factors, he only made 9 appearances this season, just four of which were from the starting line-up. A dislocated shoulder and knee surgery are primarily the injuries that have kept Frosler out of action.

Nevertheless, his attitude has remained optimistic, and Frosler insisted that a 'bad attitude' would only be counter-productive.

"I'm happy to see my teammates do well," the wingback told journalists on Thursday.

"At the end of the day, if Chiefs do well, I do well whether I have played or not. It is just about doing the simple things at training.

"There is no point coming to work sulking if you don’t play. Showing a bad attitude doesn’t help anyone.
