@JarsonX (Comment 1) :
Chiefs, they have fewer log points.
@JarsonX (Comment 1) :
Although, this is the Hurricanes’ last game, so they can’t get any more than 46, where if the Chiefs won here, they could still get, 51.
WOW! The Chiefs (bottom of NZ )have 36 log points. That’s more than the second placed SA side.
NZ conference has been tight this year.
GO DRAW!! 😈
@JarsonX (Comment 1) : I like the idea of the Chiefs ending last on the NZ log but ultimately all that illustrates is how competitive the NZ conference has been.
