Bailyn Sullivan scored four second-half tries to lead the Hurricanes to a 35-17 win over the table-topping Chiefs in Wellington.
After a tight first half, the Hurricanes took control through Sullivan’s explosive performance, backed by sharp tactical kicking and strong territorial play.
The result cements a strong run for the Hurricanes, who also beat the Brumbies last week, while the Chiefs are now tied with the Crusaders in the race for home playoff advantage. Injuries to Kini Naholo and a yellow card to Shaun Stevenson compounded a tough night for the Chiefs.
