Waratahs v Chiefs

[Bones]

So Harris' comeback didn't last long...

[Bovidae]

The Chiefs have resisted an SOS call to Brodie Retallick despite having another locking crisis on their hands for the final round of the Super Rugby Trans- Ta$man competition.

Having started the competition a month ago with a scanty second row, the Chiefs’ stocks have been hit even harder ahead of the match against the Waratahs in Sydney on Saturday night, with both Josh Lord and Mitchell Brown ruled out after sustaining concussions in the win over the Rebels in the NSW capital last Sunday.

Naitoa Ah Kuoi hasn’t played since the Aotearoa final, nursing a neck injury, while the other contracted locking option, Laghlan McWhannell (knee) has been sidelined for a third straight season, and even wider squad member Samipeni Finau hasn’t featured since injuring his shoulder against the Blues on May 1.

Weber with a great support line and run, and an awful pass to complete the move.
