    An intriguing midfield battle is among the many subplots for tomorrow night's grand final re-match to open the Super Rugby season in Hamilton


    The Chiefs will trot out All Blacks duo Quinn Tupaea and Anton Lienert-Brown at second five and centre.

    Aumua says he's been a long admirer of Lienert-Brown.
