ok, just went looking and found this

From the Highlanders Facebook page:
The Highlanders v Hurricanes match on Saturday will be played under Covid Alert Level 2 restrictions and it will unfortunately be in an empty stadium. While mass gathering regulations at Alert Level 2 do allow for groups of up to 100 to attend, in the interests of public safety both the Highlanders and stadium operator DVML have taken the decision to significantly restrict access to family members of the team only.
“We are naturally disappointed that at Alert Level 2 none of our passionate supporters will be able to attend, they have played a massive part in making Investec Super Rugby Aotearoa such a fantastic competition, and we know the players will certainly miss that support in the stands when they play on Saturday afternoon, ” Highlanders CEO, Roger Clark.
The kick-off time for this match has been moved forward from 7.05PM to 3.05PM. This is because under New Zealand Rugby Level 2 protocols agreed with Government, teams must fly in and out of cities hosting matches on the same day to limit public interaction. As a result, the Hurricanes will take a charter flight to Dunedin tomorrow morning and return to Wellington on Saturday evening.
This game will be broadcast live on Sky Sport NZ
