Our Highlanders fans (1500) will use the same chant We Barcelona fans use but with a slight Change for an insult toward our rivals the Crusaders who have not made it to the final.

Cru--sa--ders
Salute -- the cham -- pions.

40 hours to go until the final away from home. Hurricanes vs Highlanders. So pumped!!!!

Game day!! Super 15 Final!!! Go Highlanders!!! Kickoff time 7.30pm NZ time!

Congrats mate i see the higlanders won for ya

My weekend was equal to the Treble. Easily equal. . .maybe better!! The Highlanders win the Super 15. Our first Championship. Everyone underated us at the start of the season because we didn't have star players.
We are not the fastest, biggest, strongest or most skillful side in the Super 15. At the start of the season we had 3 All Blacks in the squad. During the season players got injured and we ended up using > 39 players!! The Management had to dig deep and Introduce players from lower rugby levels.
We managed to get to the final because our team had fun and bonded very well. We had a game plan and made up for the lack of ability. . . . By working as a team.
From all this our team gained extreme motivation to prove to the World that nobodys can climb to the top because rugby is a team sport!


Hands up! (Hands up)
We are the Champs! (We are the Champs!)
We are the Champs! (We are the Champs!)

It was an amazing weekend in Wellington. We Highlanders fans travelled to the 'away' final in our thousands.

Rugby's Jose Mourinho - Hurricanes coach Chris Boyd
“Coming from Dunedin, which is still a 19th century colonial city that only recently got telegraph wires, to a modern, cosmopolitan city like Wellington which has ultra-fast fibre, electric street lights, plenty of cars, and flushing toilets, it’s going to be a big adjustment for their team.”
“From what I head most of the team were wanting to come by steamer up the coast, they really thought that the aircraft was powered by some sort of witchcraft or sorcery.”
