Chiefs fans have been told that cow bells are not welcome at the Super Rugby Pacific final in Christchurch on Saturday. The Waikato supporters are known for enthusiastically ringing the metal bells that were traditionally tied around cows necks. But the Crusaders have warned fans metal bells will be confiscated at the gate at Apollo Project stadium, and they may be melted down. Crusaders CEO Colin Mansbridge spoke to Lisa Owen.
On the Mike Hosking Breakfast Full Show Podcast for Thursday 19th of June, what will our GDP number look like? It's set to look quite healthy, but will that give us false hope in Q2? The Crusaders are going to win the Super Rugby final this weekend, so coach Rob Penney is on to tell us how they'll do it.

The Crusaders' current Super Rugby season is like chalk and cheese when compared to the las. They missed the playoffs in 2024, with just four wins in 14 matches. In contrast, this year sees them host the grand final against the Chiefs – clashing at the Apollo Projects Stadium in Christchurch on Saturday. Coach Rob Penney told Mike Hosking the Chiefs have beaten them twice this year, but neither team is the same team as they were on those occasions. He says it's going to be another tight match, and the team that holds its composure the longest, prepares the best, and plays the best will be the ultimate victors.

Moana Pasifika are downplaying their dependence on outgoing skipper Ardie Savea. He will miss Super Rugby next year to take up a sabbatical in Japan, before making a 2027 return. Savea is signed with NZR through to the end of the 2027 World Cup in Australia and will end up spending half of that cycle playing in Japan. Franchise boss Debbie Sorensen told Mike Hosking that Savea's contribution might look inordinate, but there's a lot of things that go together to make the team work really well. She says that he's worked quite hard to ensure he's not the single outlier, working hard to bring the squad together and mentor other players.

The first domestic silverware of the year was handed out in London and Dublin, and Brett McKay and Harry Jones rip into it all for the first Grand Final edition of the Weekend Post-Mortem for The 8-9 Combo Rugby Podcast. Bath and Leinster took the spoils in the Premiership and URC deciders respectively, the former overcoming a valiant Leicester and the latter doing enough to stay ahead of and withhold the Bulls. There were Semi Finals of contrast in the Top 14, and it was very similar in Super Rugby Pacific, just much angrier and fightier. And what on earth does any of this have to do with the 2000 film High Fidelity, starring John Cusack? It's a great question… Plus, the conference semi-finalists are underway in Major League Rugby in the States. #rugby #rugbypodcast #89Combo #SuperRugbyPacific #UnitedRugbyChampionship #Premiership #Top14 #JapanRugbyLeagueOne #MajorLeagueRugby Find us: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@8-9Combo?sub_confirmation=1 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1BcKhb24YOtwQhKc0S3sDm Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-8-9-combo-rugby-podcast/id1729575866 Social media: #89Combo Twitter: https://twitter.com/89combo BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/89combo.bsky.social Find Brett and Harry on both Twitter and on BlueSky: @BMcSport + @HaribaldiJones Music: "Stalling" by Topher Mohr & Alex Elena (via YouTube Creator Studio) Voiceovers by Chookman + Sean Maloney Learn more about your ad choices.

The Crusaders feel last season's pain has been this season's gain. And for seasons to come. The perennial Super Rugby contenders have shrugged off the agony of missing the finals in 2024, to now be hosting this year's final.

He told Piney it wasn't ideal at the time, but there were huge learnings to come of it, which has set them up for this year and the years to come.

The Crusaders' 27-year perfect home playoff record is on the line again as they size up the Blues for a place in the Super Rugby Pacific final. It's week two of the playoffs and the two teams will be facing off in tonight in Christchurch. After that, the ‘lucky losers', the Chiefs, will take on the Brumbies in Hamilton. Crusaders CEO Colin Mansbridge told Mike Hosking that Super Rugby Pacific CEO Jack Mesley keeps banging on about wanting jeopardy in every match, and last week's clash between the Blues and the Chiefs was a good example. He says the Blues' win surprised most of them, but that's the nature of the game – you don't know who's going to win, and that's what you want.

Super Rugby Pacific talked a big game this season, promising better, faster rugby and better contests on the field, and even more ambitiously, they promised better social media presence and a significantly better fan engagement. Stan Sport‘s Sean Maloney joined Brett McKay & Harry Jones on The 8/9 Combo Rugby Podcast to concede that yes, they might just have ticked all the boxes. The regular season of ups and downs has delivered the finals series combatants we probably picked in pre-season, but didn't think we'd get for most of it, leaving three ripping Qualifying Finals this weekend coming. Also, a Player of the Year and Team of the Year have been crowned, so more boxes ticked.
