Friday night’s fixture between the Gallagher Chiefs and Speight's Highlanders at FMG Stadium Waikato will be played behind closed doors but will still be broadcast live on Sky Sport NZ and to our broadcast partners around the world.
The Crusaders-Hurricanes game has been moved to Sunday afternoon at 4.35 from Orangetheory Stadium in the hope that crowds will be able to attend.
