Michael Hooper is urging the NSW Waratahs to seize the moment and not let an opportunity slip in tomorrow's do-or-die Super Rugby Pacific quarter-final clash against the Chiefs.

The Waratahs venture to Hamilton as underdogs but full of belief after transforming themselves from winless wooden spooners in 2021 to shock title contenders this year.

Under first-year coach Darren Coleman, NSW have already conquered 12-times Super champions the Crusaders, the Highlanders in New Zealand and posted eight wins in total.

The Reds will take on the Crusaders at 7.05 tonight, the Chiefs will face the Waratahs at 4.35pm tomorrow, defending champions Blues will battle it out with the Highlanders at 7.05pm tomorrow and the Brumbies will play the Hurricanes at 9.45pm.
