Moana sitting out a lot of their pack which will mean a long day at the office for the 2nd stringers.
Chiefs by 50.

I don't understand why Parker is playing 7 and Sititi 8. Ahio to debut.
Parker has played quite a bit at 7 under McMillan hasn't he? also it's hard to think of a loose forward trio named in Super Rugby heavier than this one in recent times.. Finau 116kg, Parker 117kg, Sititi 113kg.

Yep, I think we might see a scoreline similar to the Hurricanes match last year when they cracked 70 points, as Chiefs haven't really lost much in the players they've rested because of their outstanding depth, Moana on the other hand will be worse off from resting guys but hey it's understandable they do it now against a side where a win's unlikely.

Yes, but Parker has never played there for Waikato so it's a McMillan thing. Out of the three starting loose forwards in this game Sititi is clearly the best suited to play at 7. He plays there often for NH. Parker is also the tallest of the three, which makes this decision all the more puzzling.

Good to see that Chiefs 7 Jersey prominent and on the scoreboard
-
poor call on the advantage there, geez!!
-
Malolo is having a shocker so far.

A try only Moana would concede.

Easy to stuff up if you sprint full tilt, and the ball bounces oddly

That was too easy.
