Still some things about CHCH to be confirmed no way will we be allowed to be the first game there. It needs to be finshed early so the Crusaders  get to play there before the 18th

Well no, it's a Sports Stadium for Christchurch or the upper South Island, not a rugby ground. Don't think the Crusaders have put one cent into building it.

Like all multi purpose stadiums owned by a Council or some sort of local Trust - they want as many tenants and events as possible to pay the bills. I think Christchurch City Council is the owner or major stakeholders, and there maybe as many football loving councillors as rugby fans.

2026 Super Rugby Pacfic draw has been made. Crusaders play in ChCh 4th April, and then have away games the next 2 weeks (in Perth 18th April) before the centralised Super Round at Te Kaha 24th-26th April.
