A plea for more resources to go into the women's Super Rugby Aupiki competition in the future

The Blues host the inaugural champions, the Chiefs Manawa, in tomorrow's final at Eden Park.

While the round robin's expanded to home and away now, there are only seven weeks of Aupiki and it remains part-time.

Chiefs captain Kennedy Simon would like longer.

Simon says it's been challenging and fulltime would be amazing - but what they've been able to do with what they've been given has been incredible.



The Wellington Phoenix men say they're ready for one of the biggest games in their A-League football history.

Beat the Melbourne Victory at home tonight and the Phoenix can clinch a top-two finish in the regular season for the first time... and remain right in the race for the Premiers Plate.
