The Red and Black do it again in 2025, with a win over Otago in Christchurch, 36-28.
Otago went to the break 10-14 up, but with the wind on their back, Canterbury dominated in the second.
Tonight Canterbury farewells a couple of old mates, Captain Tom Christie and their home ground as they move to a new stadium next year. Thank you for being a friend.

It’s a Hurricane-ABs connection in the midfield this weekend. A great move, that will hopefully offer some long awaited excitement in the centres.

We pay good money to watch two quality test teams, and the French send over a team with 13 uncapped players.
Already the French are surrendering. Oh well, they're the best at it.

Only a handful of top players will tour New Zealand next month to face the All Blacks.

The Crusaders maintain their flawless home finals record, now standing at an incredible 31-0, with a classic against the Blues, 21-14.
Grant Nisbet remarked in the 80th minute, 'First time we've seen Rieko Ioane this half'—a telling sign he’s 💩🏠
