Pulu-Cruden-Sonny Bill-Ngatai show to roll against Highlanders

Tonight the Augustine Pulu‑Aaron Cruden‑Sonny Bill Williams and Charlie Ngatai show rolls on to Waikato Stadium again, this time to take on the Highlanders.

The speedy Ngatai is eager to play in what he admits is going to be another tough New Zealand conference derby, having scored two tries so far.

While the Chiefs have a lethal inside back combination and a handy back three of Tom Marshall, Hosea Gear and James Lowe, the Highlanders also bring a star‑studded backline to town.

Nagtai said All Blacks players Ben Smith, Malakai Fekitoa and Aaron Smith are class players which the Chiefs have to look out for.

The Chiefs play the Highlanders at 6.35 tonight while the Brumbies meet the Force at 8.40pm.
