Atu Moli and Nathan Harris will return for the Chiefs today in their rematch with the Hurricanes.
The Chiefs will still have to fend without Brodie Retallick, however, who is on Al Blacks leave after also sitting out last week’s match with the Lions.
Moli hasn’t started a match for the Chiefs since February of last year.
Michael Allardice also returns from injury and resumes the captaincy from Brad Weber in Retallick’s absence.
The Chiefs hosted the Hurricanes in round 4 of the competition. The match ended at 23‑all.
The Chiefs take on the Hurricanes at 7.35 tonight.
Meanwhile, the Crusaders beat the Lions 36-10 last night while the Highlanders thrashed the Sunwolves 52-nil.
STARTING XV: Solomon Alaimalo, Sean Wainui, Tumua Manu, Anton Lienert‑Brown, Ataata Moeakiola, Marty McKenzie, Brad Weber, Tyler Ardron, Lachlan Boshier, Luke Jacobson, Mitchell Brown, Michael Allardice, Angus Ta’avao, Nathan Harris, Atu Moli. RESERVES: Liam Polwart, Tevita Mafileo, Sosefo Kautai, Taleni Seu, Jesse Parete, Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi, Stephen Donald, Alex Nankivell.
