@machpants I'm slightly confused by this:
The only positive news for Super Rugby Pacific is New Zealand preparing to welcome Australian travellers without any isolation requirements from April 13 – a move that will allow all trans- Ta$man sport to resume normality.
What normality when New Zealand is so incompetently dealing with this in 2022 they're unable to field teams? I'm now revising my previous position and agree that the competition should've been held in Australia.

@antipodean even if they only had a spattering of fans in the stadiums, no different to the limited numbers we are allowed here.
NZ Rugby is getting reemed by Covid and these rules.

@taniwharugby The MoH seem to be indicating that crowds (20% capacity) would now be allowed in outdoor settings. That would be in line with the cricket.
So reading that article, the only possible game could be MP vs Chiefs in Dunedin.
-
@bovidae so why can't the Hurricanes play? They sounded pretty confident of getting a team ready for Sunday..
-
@canes4life It appears that the Hurricanes had agreed to play the Crusaders, and the latter has covid problems. No reason they couldn't play that fixture though. If there is a game this weekend MP need to be playing in it.
@bovidae this news suggests the Hurricanes are playing the Chiefs still:

COVID outbreaks in the Blues, Highlanders, and Crusaders squads have forced New Zealand Rugby (NZR) to amend the DHL Super Rugby Pacific Round 5 schedule.
The Gallagher Chiefs will now play Moana Pasifika at Mt Smart Stadium in Auckland at 7.05pm on Saturday night in what will be the only New Zealand-based DHL Super Rugby Pacific match this weekend.

there are 3 games in Australia

Massive downvote, now the Canes have to catchup 2 games.
Good to see MP are playing though.
The Hurricanes are meant to have a bye next week so hopefully they can turn that week off into a match week, otherwise that's three weeks without taking the field.

They're slightly more appealing than your aerial ping ping, bogan rugby, and horsies suggestions.

As do the Blues. MP would have have 4 catch-up games to play.
Hurricanes are scheduled to play MP away next round with a bye the week after.
The Chiefs and Hurricanes could play in their bye week, but would lose a week off.

Look on the bright side, that could be six weeks since you last lost a game.

NZRU did a half-ass bubble in QTown that cost hundreds of thousands, then abandoned the bubble just as omicron was about to rip through NZ seemingly because Ardie Savea complained about a 4 hour bus trip...
they moved to Queenstown and still had to cancel games but Mark Robinson told us it was still the right call. Good laugh out of that one.
My issue is with deadshit administrators that don't have any forward thinking and common sense.

@kiwi_expat What are they doing in Aust? I think that the Drua are in a bubble of sorts but what about the 5 Aust teams?

No bubbles playing out of their bases,Really covid doesn't exist. No compulsory testing etc 100% capacity must be double vaxed.
Edit except WA 50% capacity.
