"Pretty excited": NZR CEO previews Kiwi-packed Super Rugby Pacific semi-finals
The deck is stacked with Kiwi teams rolling into the Super Rugby Pacific semi-finals.
The Chiefs are taking on the Crusaders in Hamilton tonight, followed by the Hurricanes and “lucky loser” Blues’ clash in Wellington tomorrow.
Though many believe the outcome of the tournament is predictable, NZ Rugby CEO Steve Lancaster is pushing back against the sentiment.
He told Heather du Plessis-Allan this is the first time in thirty years four New Zealand teams have been in the semi-finals.
“Every year it throws us something new, and this year, I actually, as an All Blacks fan, I feel pretty excited that we’ve got four teams in the semis.”
