Poll: Do you reckon the Chiefs can do it on Saturday?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

As the Chiefs aim to make it third-time-lucky in their quest for sweet Super Rugby Pacific success, they are vowing to this time get things right in the discipline department to give them a better tilt at a long-awaited title.

The Hamilton-based franchise, who on Monday had positive news to report in fullback Shaun Stevenson having cleared HIA protocols to be available for a last outing before jetting to Japan next season, take on the Crusaders in Christchurch in Saturday night’s final, seeking a first championship in a dozen years.

Do you reckon the Chiefs can do it on Saturday? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
