		BLOEMFONTEIN -- The Waikato Chiefs finally broke their South African Super 12 rugby duck when a late rally saw them scrape home 36-35 against Golden Cats at the Free State Stadium on Saturday night.
		With the Cats' players seemingly having one eye on the half-time whistle, the New Zealanders produced a sharp reminder of their undoubted talents when, in a rare thrust at the Cats line, the ball was recycled through numerous phases before flanker Glen Marsh popped up on the left wing to take the scoring pass.
		De Beer struck again with his sixth three-pointer of the night soon afterwards and the Chiefs' hopes momentarily nosedived when replacement flanker Justin Collins was sent to the sin-bin for a late hit on the flyhalf six minutes from the end.

		The Chiefs are the odd men out of New Zealand Super 12 rugby: the only franchise yet to make it to a semi-final.
		Based in Hamilton, their squad is built around the Waikato team one of the strongest unions in New Zealand, the holders since 1997 of the much-coveted Ranfurly Shield.
		In the Chiefs' second row Taylor will be joined by All Black Royce Willis, but a pre-season injury means he will probably miss the first six weeks of the season.

		Defence was the telling factor for the Chiefs, who staved off a series of Brumbies raids in the dying stages of the match, and as tempers boiled over amid the tension, South African referee Tappe Henning resorted to the yellow card four times.
		Chiefs loose forward Sione Lauaki was the first to go, sent to the sideline for 10 minutes midway through the second half after a high tackle on Clyde Rathbone.
		The Chiefs had the first points on the board when fly half Glen Jackson kicked the first of his three penalties in the 19th minute, but the lead was surrendered two minutes later when Roff touched down in the corner.

		The Invasion of Waikato was an invasion during the New Zealand Wars fought in the North Island of New Zealand from July 1863 to April 1864 between the military forces of the Colonial Government and a federation of Māori tribes known as the King Movement (Kingitanga).
		As they were withdrawing from Paterangi one of the Waikato chiefs, Rewi Maniapoto, encountered a party of Ngāti Kahungunu and Tuhoe, about 170 men, who had come a long way to join in the war, all the way from the East Cape and the Urewera.
		The War in the Waikato was over by 5 April just as the ramifications of it were spreading to the rest of the Island.

		But Dawson said today said the research the Chiefs had done showed ticket pricing did not seem to be a barrier for people coming to games at Waikato Stadium and that his organisation had successfully layered pricing to cater for all pockets.
		And while Moffett had claimed the Welsh union, under his direction, had dropped ticket prices and successfully put together a string of 74,000-seat test sellouts as a result, Dawson said dropping prices for games that tended to attract low attendances was not the answer and sometimes factors like kickoff times were beyond their control.
		Waikato and the Chiefs last week launched their season membership drive for 2007 and initial demand looked "pretty good".

		In the end the Hurricanes, noted for their attacking prowess, owed victory to a steadfast defence that generally held firm while the Chiefs dominated possession in the second-half.
		This occurred while the Chiefs were down to 14 men after their own No 8 Paul Miller had been sinbinned for 10 minutes by referee Steve Walsh for a professional foul in a ruck.
		Miller was still off the field as Chiefs skipper Jonno Gibbes scored the first of his team's two tries when he proved too difficult to stop from just short of the tryline.

		For the chiefs to be enticed to sign the Treaty, it had to have "mana" and a document devoid of the signature of the Queen's official representative would have little or no "mana" and prestige.
