However, head coach Clayton McMillan says there is a long way to go.

Taranaki youngster Daniel Rona is set to make his debut for the Chiefs and there’s a powerful bench to add impact including loose forward Samipeni Finau and Sowakula.

The Chiefs hosts Highlanders on Friday at 6:05pm on Friday.

Meanwhile, the Swire Shipping Fijian Drua takes on the Crusaders at 3:35pm on Saturday at Churchill Park in Lautoka.
