Well, round 8 of Super Rugby Aotearoa began when the Crusaders regrouped after a win against the winless Chiefs in Hamilton then the Blues win 2 games in a row in an entertaining game against the Highlanders in Dunedin (Including a double from Blues halfback Finlay Christie).
And here is the list of round 9 matches being played in Super Rugby Aotearoa:
Hurricanes Vs Chiefs (Their most recent meeting was this year in which the Hurricanes won at FMG Stadium Waikato in Hamilton against the Chiefs in round 4 after Hurricanes second rower Scott Scrafton was sent from the field after accumulating both yellow cards but the last time the Chiefs beat the Hurricanes was in the last round of the 2018 Super Rugby season at the same ground after a Chiefs player named Johnny Fa'auli had been shown the red card by the referee for a sickening head high tackle on Wes Goosen (Well that looked sadistic)
& Crusaders Vs Highlanders (The last time both of these sides met in a great Southern derby was this year in which the Crusaders took top honors against the Highlanders at Forsyth Barr Stadium in Dunedin but it's been 2 years since the Highlanders had last beaten the Crusaders & it was in round 5 at the same venue).
So that is my 357th blog of the year 2020 (MMXX) & my 17th of this year
