Hopes from the Chiefs that the return of loose forward Wallace Sititi can bolster their forward pack in tonight's Super Rugby Pacific game against the Western Force in Bay of Plenty

Hopes from the Chiefs that the return of loose forward Wallace Sititi can bolster their forward pack in tonight's Super Rugby Pacific game against the Western Force in Bay of Plenty

25 April 2025

Sititi has been named on the bench, in his first appearance this season since returning from knee surgery earlier than expected.

Chiefs assistant coach Graham Dewes says the forward pack will need to step up against a strong Force lineout.

It's the first game in the Tauranga region in 10 years ... and the first-ever at Mount Maunganui's Bay Oval.

Kickoff is at 7.05pm ... live commentary on Gold Sport and iHeartRadio.
