These games will provide a great test for the teams ahead of their respective competitions commencing at the end of February, and a fantastic opportunity for fans to get an early taste of the best from both clubs.

“It’s a short drive from the Waikato and Auckland city and we are hoping for a big turnout to support the Chiefs Rugby Club in an exciting new concept.

“The past couple of years have been challenging with restrictions around crowds, so it is great to be able to promote this special occasion and to see the Waitomo Chiefs Manawa and Gallagher Chiefs playing in this exciting format.”

Counties Manukau Head of Operations Dale Tucker said: “We are excited to be hosting the Gallagher Chiefs and the Waitomo Chiefs Manawa here at Navigation Homes Stadium next month. Covid-19 squashed our chance of hosting a regular season game, so to not only get the Gallagher Chiefs and Blues but also three Super Rugby level women’s teams right here in Pukekohe is huge.”

“This is a great opportunity for our local community to see their heroes in their own backyard. Also, having All Blacks and Black Ferns running out on Navigation Homes Stadium will be great.”

The women’s game will kick off at 2.40pm with nib Blues vs Waratahs, and offer the chance to see the Australian Super W runner-up, the Waratahs play and provide an insight into the possible future of the women’s game with a Pacific-wide competition similar to the men’s game.

The men’s game will begin at 6pm, with family-friendly times allowing younger fans to enjoy an evening at the game.

Fans will also be able to purchase Chiefs merchandise, including the new Waitomo Chiefs Manawa secondary range, on the day.
The Gallagher Chiefs DHL Super Rugby Pacific season begins on 24 February against the Crusaders in Christchurch, while the Waitomo Chiefs Manawa Sky Super Rugby Aupiki season begins the following day against the Hurricanes Poua in Levin.
