The Christchurch-based Crusaders will host the Super Rugby final for a record eighth time after edging the Blues 21-14 to end the Blues’ one-year title reign

Chiefs coach Clayton McMillan is refusing to be overawed by the prospect of facing the Crusaders in their Christchurch stronghold when the teams face off in the Super Rugby Pacific final later this week.

Chiefs will not "have any fear" of playing next week's Super Rugby final against Crusaders in Christchurch, despite the home side's formidable record there.
