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.
