The Nix have also signed a 3 year deal (2 years to go) to take a game annually to Christchurch.
There is no other ChCh game listed prior 18th April.
The TBC will be is Te Kaha going to ready by 18th April, for a game (yes 'test event') before the big Super Rugby Round there over the following ANZAC Day weekend?
Or does it have to be played in Addington - less exciting, smaller crowd
With luck Te Kaha is ready in time. That 18th April game could be the first event ever held there.
If so the Nix may host three 20K+ crowds in the regular home season. Two derbies and ChCh game. Alot will depend how the team is playing. No pressure on Chiefy from the bean counters!
