It’s the showdown everyone was predicting, it’s the showdown everyone was wanting.

The Shop N Save Super Rugby Pacific final between the Chiefs and Crusaders in Hamilton promises to be an absolute beauty.

Top seeds against second seeds, the clear best team all year versus the six-time defending champions, who are the absolute masters of finals footy.

Will Scott Robertson, in his last hurrah before moving on to the All Blacks job next year, be able to perform one last celebratory break-dance?

Or can Clayton McMillan come up trumps, and his side avenge their losses to the red and blacks from last year’s semifinal and the Super Rugby Aotearoa decider the year before?

The Chiefs host the Crusaders at 7.05 tonight at FMG Stadium, Waikato.
