Waikato Chiefs handily demolished Bay of Plenty by a score of 43-10 in their ITM Cup game in New Zealand over the weekend.

And perhaps no moment summed up the game better than when Bay of Plenty's Craig Clare tried to tackle Waikato Chiefs prop Loni Uhila. You see, Loni Uhila is a big man, a very big man, hence his nickname, "The Tongan Bear". So when Clare tried to stop Uhila as he made a break, Uhila bore down on him with all of his 20st weight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsX2vj3WzjU
