Super Rugby Pacific live updates: Blues v Chiefs

This is an interesting one, because the Chiefs are unlikely to move out of their fourth spot while the Blues need that bonus-point win to secure top spot ahead of the Canes.

However, the Chiefs have a pretty much full-strength line up for this battle so it should be a hard-fought game. Kick-off is at 7.05pm (NZT).
