    Winger Sevu Reece says everyone was eager come back early from their bye week to tear into their work.



    Meanwhile Chiefs tighthead prop Angus Ta'avao sees tonight's decider as the sixth final of the season.

    The Chiefs earned the right to face the Crusaders by winning five consecutive games, the last four of which were won with the last play of the game.

    Ta'avao says they just need to keep doing what they did to get to this point.
