WELLINGTON - Coach Warren Gatland’s early-season confidence in his Waikato Chiefs side after their victory over the defending champions the Canterbury Crusaders has led him to resting three key players for next week’s clash with the Sunwolves in Tokyo.
The Hamilton-based side had been tipped pre-season to be the closest challengers to the Crusaders from New Zealand and proved it by weathering a first-half onslaught from Scott Robertson’s side before slowly overtaking the visitors in the second. “We need to be giving players in the squad some game time, and making sure that we are prepared for towards the end of the season if we do pick up other injuries.”
A much improved Hurricanes side, however, went the length of the field with a little over two minutes remaining to set up a match-winning try to replacement scrumhalf Jamie Booth as they beat the Jaguares 26-23 in Buenos Aires.
