Real Rugby they need to get rid of new rules. Such as not being able to pass the ball forward for yourself, or tackle the 9, or being able to kick in a ruck

its mostly a red and black wave. Crusaders still dominating to this day, what a team

As a Hurricanes fan. The 02 Crusaders and the 03 Blues was one of the best years for those franchises.. Crusaders went undefeated in 02 and Blues losing 1 game in 03

It was a good reply but every time they closed the gap the Brumbies just kept on coming up with more points to re-establish a safe lead soon after. Great team full of big name talent and a fairytale home final against the big threat red and blacks. 33-14 at half-time man. 33-0 was the opening 20 minute hiding.

These were the glory days of super rugby, before the endless expansions and stupid conference and finals system. Look at the crowds back then as well, there was a real passion for it that you don’t see today. Shame how some of the iconic teams of this era. I.e. the Brumbies and Blues have slipped into mediocrity. Some things don’t change though; the Crusaders dominating the competition. Seemed to me in this era as well teams played more carefree rugby which made the games really entertaining. Nowadays you don’t see that kind of high tempo rugby very often. Only in the Kiwi derbies would i say that the quality matches what was served up in this era.

Rename this video - teams that the mighty crusaders have played in the final since 98.

Super referee: Andre Watson, officiating five finals.

That blues back three in 03 scary good plus mils at 13

damn i'd forgotten how good the brumbies were

Can you do the Super 14 Era finals?

Jovan ....i know it's a bit late but Rugby Union is the greatest game in the world. Rugby League is just Rugby with all the skill and finesse taken out , no where near as much strategy and thinking involved and it shows when you watch a boring League game. Anyway good luck and just have fun in what ever you choose mate.

The Sharks have really lost alot of finals throughout the years.
