Poll: Did you watch Saturday's game?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

After the Blues tried and narrowly failed, the Chiefs will embrace the chance to instead be the ones to conquer the Christchurch curse, after booking themselves a spot in yet another Super Rugby Pacific final.

With an impressive 37-17 bounce-back win over the Brumbies in their semifinal in Hamilton, the two-time reigning runners-up will be looking to make it third-time-lucky in Saturday night’s big dance against the Crusaders.

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?
