Crusaders want nothing more than a win, Chiefs want to end the 10-year jinx

If there is one thing that the defending Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific champions, the Crusaders will want more this weekend, that is to send their outgoing coach Scott Robertson and a few of their departing players on a high note by successfully defending their title against the Chiefs in the grand final on Saturday.

With 10 of their players recently being named in the All Blacks squad for the upcoming Rugby Championship, this will surely give them more motivation to fight harder to achieve their objective.

Flyhalf Richie Mo’unga will be one of the key players that the Crusaders will be looking to this weekend to deliver the goods for them.

He is also expected to leave everything out on the field come Saturday as it will also be his last time running out in the Crusaders’ jersey.

The Chiefs on the other hand will not want to disappoint their fans as they will be looking to defend their home turf and break their 10-year jinx in front of their home fans.

The Chiefs will take on the Crusaders at 7.05pm in Waikato.
