The Hurricanes had won five games in a row when they went to face the Chiefs. The Canes were leading 12-3 at halftime, having scored early and late in the first half. With 10 minutes to go, the Hurricanes were leading with the ball in the Chiefs’ half. They lost the ball, and the Chiefs countered, and a tremendous offload allowed them to bring the score back level. McKenzie had a kick to win the game, but it came up short, and they went to extra time. In extra time, the Chiefs went for a drop-goal, but even with a charge down, the Chiefs collected the ball, and Sititi scored the winning points.

The Brumbies suffered a shock home defeat to the Fijian Drua in the last round, continuing their run of alternating wins and losses. They scored early against the Drua but conceded three tries in the first half to be down 22-7 at halftime. Two of the tries were self-inflicted, allowing an intercept try and letting Fines-Leleiwasa to tap-and-go towards the line. Despite a second-half comeback, the Drua controlled the scoreboard well to win by five.
