Big game, will the chiefs signal their status as a contender or will the sharks continue their feeding frenzy?
Chiefs welcome Back Richard Kahui, so one sep closer to the "all allblack" backline I've been looking forward to for some time and if it wasn't for Mil's injury this would have been the game... Chiefs injury list is starting to look ugly. only other change of note is Elliot starting ahead of Mega.

Tim Nanai-Williams, Lelia Masaga, Richard Kahui, Tana Umaga, Sitiveni Sivivatu, Stephen Donald, Brendon Leonard, Liam Messam (captain), Tanerau Latimer, Scott Waldrom, Isaac Ross, Craig Clarke, Nathan White, Hika Elliot, Ben May.
