Chief executive Avan Lee said after an “incredible” 10,000 tickets flew out the door on Monday, they hit 20,000 by lunchtime on Wednesday and sales were on track for an attendance of 30,000-plus for the late afternoon kickoff against the Chiefs. -

This is super interesting
Breakdown looks key.
I say that the Chiefs' scrum is the key. If it is as poor as it has been, it turns positive possession into penalties against and balls lost. All season they have defended well, forced a turnover, only to squander the possession with a poor scrum.
After that it is discipline. The Chiefs give away a LOT of stupid penalties and cards and have done for years. To be fair, most of them are at the breakdown, so that does overlap with your point. The last game between the two sides was decided by a penalty at the breakdown, with a Chiefs player not thinking.

Surprising he didn't... considering genius coach Hammett was there....

This is true.

This is a cool story in the lead up to this game. At the beginning of the season Laidlaw put a Canes 10 and 15 jersey on the ground and told Love to choose one. Love obviously chose the 15 jersey and the rest is history but what a play by Laidlaw to make a player choose.
Hurricanes star Love out of 'retirement' to make No.15 jersey his own in breakout campaign
The fullback has made up for lost time, helping the Super Rugby Pacific tabletoppers to the semi-finals.

Doesn't say much for the coaches back then
"I feel, when I first came into the Hurricanes, I got cluttered with too much information," he admitted. "I was trying to be a player I wasn't, but the last eight months, I've figured out where I stand and what I want to achieve, and the player I want to be known as.
