      The Chiefs’ home game against the Highlanders remains scheduled for a 7.05pm kickoff on Friday night, although a move to Sunday was also considered. However, there is no such luck for Chiefs fans, who will have to tune in from afar as their team hits the paddock after a round one bye.

            Teams are enough I think. Pretty sure everyone knows what the current year is

                    @kiwiwomble Ah I dunno, obviously back my team but after the last couple of years I'm trying not to get my hopes up.

                        Hahaha, nice try bro.

                        Also Sio being carded is just the normal way things work, I'd assume every Highlanders game plan factors that in.

                        I'm not sure Gatland playing for us is a positive.

                          @nepia just plan for him to be absent in general i think, either carded or just no effect on the game.....

                          will Gatland start? all jokes aside he was a much better player last year than when i first saw him for the Landers against the Rebels a few years ago, think Brownie has had an influence

                              @tim well I'm sure they won't mind a helping of Brown sauce to go with those chips.

                                    He’d have just woken up too. Pretty sharp from him all round.

                                          Of course, when the same fixture comes around next year... the thread gets recycled?
                                          To be honest, I kinda like that idea - every year you'd be reminded of what happened last time.

                                                  Yeah, I received an email earlier today. 700 tickets are available.

                                                      We get a discount on our ticket prices and official merchandise, and priority purchase rights to All Blacks tests.

                                                      Members also get to choose their allocated seats every season. This year the seats will have our names on them in case we get lost. 😉

                                                      Anyway, I've registered so fingers crossed.

                                                          there it is, Fakatava starting

                                                          interesting Hunt back to 15 so quickly, not mad as he played well there last year, i imagine we'll see a hunt to 10 and Alaimalo to 15 in the second half

                                                          1ceb0eea-c39c-4715-9026-b952b6504a31-image.png

                                                            Disappointed to see Hunt at fullback. I thought perhaps it might be a shitty forecast for Friday and the Highlanders were expecting a kicking game, but the weather looks good.

                                                            Still would like to see TUJ get a run, but sounds like he had a good Christmas.

                                                            Excited to see Fakatava start, certainly shows we are doing everything we can to keep him in blue and gold.
