The Chiefs cemented their place at the top of Super Rugby with a sixth straight win and the Stormers ensured they are the closest chasers, but Saturday's ninth round was highlighted by a rousing first victory in the competition by Japanese newcomers the Sunwolves. A week after conceding nearly 100 points in one of the worst defeats in Super Rugby history, the Sunwolves rebounded at home in Tokyo to beat Argentina's Jaguares, another new team, 36-28. The Sunwolves were routed 92-17 by South Africa's Cheetahs last weekend, letting in 14 tries in a match that supported fears they would be uncompetitive in world rugby's toughest professional competition.
