For the first time this season, the Chiefs have named an unchanged line-up. Now, as coach Dave Rennie says, is not the time for tinkering.
"Sometimes we've made changes because we've had some positions that were very tight and we've wanted to create competition," he said ahead of tomorrow's Super 15 final against the Brumbies at a sold-out Waikato Stadium.
"Other times it's been because of injuries and there's been a few of those."
Rennie's consistency in selection depends on wing Lelia Masaga recovering from his ankle injury, which he is expected to do. He has kept faith in the Andrew Horrell and Charlie Ngatai midfield, which played together for the first time against the Crusaders last weekend.
It also means tighthead prop Ben Tameifuna gets the nod, despite being replaced by Ben Afeaki at halftime at Waikato Stadium. Hooker Mahonri's knee injury - he had surgery this week - means Rhys Marshall keeps his place on the reserves bench.
