Chiefs v Highlanders

Highlanders by 12 or more.
They clearly want Seu at 8. Looks to me like he and Messam should be around the other way.
Given who is available, that backline looks pretty good to me, but I'd prefer to see TTT starting. With Ngatai coming off the bench, I really, really hope that Alaimalo plays the house down at FB, so that our numbnuts coach will put him back at 12 for the 2 games he manages to maintain fitness.
I'm a terrible tipster but that Clan forward pack is a veritable who's that of super rugby. Can't see them besting the Chief's 8.
(Sorry Chiefs ... I've doomed you ... )

@booboo huh? 3 ABs, two very good Maori players, a very good super player in Tokolahi and a NZ age group rep.

Not to mention the Chiefs pack consists of Tyler Adron, Aidon Ross, Angus Ta'avao and Seu out of place. Granted BBBR and Cane can almost carry this pack alone but they're up against a decent pack - especially the loosies.

I'm too busy watching the stockcars from Meeanee (found a free live stream!) to keep a close eye on the game, who is the replacement first five?

What was that dirty fluffybunny Harris doing with BFA on the ground behind the ruck

Try Naholo, but full credit to Thompson. Poor defence from Wainui, but what's new?
F Smith converts. Highlanders lead 7 to 6.

That’s a mismatch, so hopefully it only gets taken advantage of once.
