Poll: Do you reckon the Chiefs can do it on Saturday?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

As the Chiefs aim to make it third-time-lucky in their quest for sweet Super Rugby Pacific success, they are vowing to this time get things right in the discipline department to give them a better tilt at a long-awaited title.

The Hamilton-based franchise, who on Monday had positive news to report in fullback Shaun Stevenson having cleared HIA protocols to be available for a last outing before jetting to Japan next season, take on the Crusaders in Christchurch in Saturday night’s final, seeking a first championship in a dozen years.

Do you reckon the Chiefs can do it on Saturday? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
