Hamilton - A much-improved scrum in the second half steered an ill-disciplined Chiefs to a 37-27 win over the Cheetahs in Hamilton on Saturday.
As it happened: Chiefs 37-27 Cheetahs
The Chiefs, the most penalised team in the competition, avoided the pitfall of fatigue that often hits New Zealand sides returning from South Africa, but they could not avoid the wrath of referee Craig Joubert.
