The unbeaten Chiefs face a tough test as they head to perhaps the most daunting away venue in the competition: Churchill Park, AKA The Graveyard of the Pacific. The Drua and the local weather have forged a formidable reputation at the venue, which should be brimming with local fans. Kick-off is at 4:35pm NZT.
