Rennie has opted to stick with the same side that overcame the Crusaders 20-17 in last weekend's semi-final in Hamilton.

Co-captain Craig Clarke was able to overcome an injury scare and will once again lead his charges on Saturday evening.

The game will no doubt provide a healthy dose of entertainment and both sides will look forward to playing in front of the sell-out Waikato crowd.

Chiefs:

1. Sona Taumalolo, 2. Mahonri Schwalger, 3. Ben Tameifuna, 4. Craig Clarke (c), 5. Brodie Retallick, 6. Liam Messam, 7. Tanerau Latimer, 8. Kane Thompson, 9. Tawera Kerr-Barlow, 10. Aaron Cruden, 11. Asaeli Tikoirotuma, 12. Sonny Bill Williams, 13. Andrew Horrell, 14. Tim Nanai-Williams, 15. Robbie Robinson.

Substitutes: 16. Hika Elliot, 17. Ben Afeaki, 18. Michael Fitzgerald, 19. Sam Cane, 20. Brendon Leonard, 21. Jackson Willison, 22. Lelia Masaga.
