What is the atmosphere like in Christchurch during Super Round?

Unknown 0:00
Well, here we are. This is it. Yeah, Christchurch Superround. We're here. City's a buzz, isn't it? It certainly is. It's a buzz. It's a beautiful day.
G Lane 0:07
I've seen people out on the pavement. That's how I know it's a buzz.
Unknown 0:09
It's a buzz.
G Lane 0:10
Because there are people around.
Unknown 0:11
Yeah. And you know what? A lot of rugby fans milling around the airport this morning. Yeah, some hard outs too. Yeah. Good to see domestic. The same rules apply for the domestic terminal as the international terminal when it comes to smacking beers. Oh, right. Okay. Yeah. That means there's no time. Yeah. You know, time is irrelevant when it goes to the airport. So loads of rugby fans smashing beers. Great to see a couple of old Waikato NPC tops, a couple of Mulu tops floating around.
G Lane 0:37
Yeah, it does feel very much like a bit of a what old school jersey have you got flex fest down here at the moment as well. Some great retro kits going about. I'd say the Chiefs were the most represented fan base in the airport.

How do fans prepare for the Super Round weekend?

G Lane 0:50
From what I saw.
Unknown 0:51
Yeah, that's true. Is there a direct flight from the Tron to Crushage? If there is, it's probably on a tiny little prop plane. So I think it's worth the one hour trip up the motorway while listening to Dudes Routin' or Great New Zealand Routes. In reverse? Yeah, I suppose you can do it in reverse. Might work.
G Lane 1:09
Tough listen. Oh, you'd make it work. You'd make it work. The one fandom or fan base I didn't see any representation from in the airport was the Blues. Oh, the Blues. Yeah, there was one guy in a Canes jersey.
Unknown 1:20
Oh, okay. No, well, you know, they're a bit more subtle, aren't they, the Blues fans? And you know what? They'll probably come in on their private jets just before the game and leave immediately after. Because they're not playing until tomorrow night. No, they're not. So why would they come tonight to get punished by Crusaders fans? Why would you do that to yourself as a Blues fan? And same with, I mean, that's when you look at it, those Chiefs fans, they're true rugby fans. It's rugby mana for them. So they're happy to come here and watch the Crusaders. It's going to be tough for me tonight calling that game, pretending like I care against the retards.
G Lane 1:52
Yeah, well, you've got to do what you've got to do.
Unknown 1:53
Yeah, anyway. So, yeah, we are calling that game tonight live and free on iHeartRadio and Radio Hauraki at 7.30. Yep.

What are the key matchups to watch during Super Round?

Unknown 2:00
We had a bit of a boo-boo in the fact that we thought it was 7, like all the other games. Easy mistake to make. But since there's no Aussie games this weekend, they've bumped it another half hour just, I think, for the Australian audience. So, 7.30 tonight, iHeart and on Radio Hauraki. But, man. If that plane had gone down, quite a lot of New Zealand's media would have gone down with it.
G Lane 2:19
I tell you what, they should have rolled out the red carpet for the amount of media personalities that were on that plane today, especially within about a three-minute radius of us for some reason.
Unknown 2:27
Yeah, and questions have to be asked about on a 50-minute flight why Martin Devlin would need to go to the toilet three times.
G Lane 2:35
Yeah, three times.
Unknown 2:37
Now, either he's got a prostate issue or he's up to no good.
G Lane 2:41
Yeah. Okay? Those seem to be the only two options. Yeah, yeah. I didn't, before anyone else was asking, and I'm not sure that many people were, I didn't see anyone else going into the bathroom with him. No, no.
Unknown 2:50
It certainly wasn't that kind of behavior.
G Lane 2:52
It was whether he was up to something else. I don't know.
Unknown 2:54
You can eliminate that. Oh, yeah. You can eliminate that. I think he was the only one that used the toilet. He was. Three times. He certainly was.
G Lane 3:00
And I did also notice that the flight attendant for Air New Zealand knew his first name. I don't know whether that was to do with the fact that he was a fan of Martin Devlin or not, but it was like he'd been on flights with him before and he knew that Martin Devlin needed to use the toilet. He's got a weak bladder.
Unknown 3:14
Yeah.

How do the speakers predict the outcomes of the matches?

Unknown 3:15
Fundamentally weak. And we saw our good friend, William Wider. Yeah. Willie Cribb.
G Lane 3:20
He was getting punished by Martin Devlin.
Unknown 3:23
Oh, yes. He has got absolutely chewed off.
