The Chiefs won a home final of Super Rugby in 2012. The Chiefs won their first title over the Sharks by a score of 6-7. The Chiefs became the fourth team to win titles in 2013 when they beat the Brumbies at Waikato Stadium with a score of 27-22.
The Chiefs were third in the New Zealand conference and 5th overall after round 7 in 2020. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 super rugby season was stopped. New Zealand Rugby Union made a new domestic Super Rugby event known as Super Rugby Aotearoa, which started in June 2020. The Chiefs have given a brilliant performance, but unfortunately, they did not win any single match of the 2020 Super Rugby Aotearoa.
In the 2021 season, the Chiefs participated in the Super Rugby Aotearoa and Super Rugby Trans-Tasman. Chiefs have played a total of 8 games in 2021 Super Rugby Aotearoa, from which they won five games against Blues, Highlanders, Crusaders, and Hurricanes, while in Super Rugby Trans-Tasman Chiefs have won four games out of five against Force, Brumbies, Rebels, and Waratahs.
The Highlanders were ranked 5th in the New Zealand Conference and 11th overall after the seven rounds of the Super Rugby season 2020. They should have played the Jaguars in the 7th round, but the COVID-19 pandemic stopped that game and canceled the remaining games. But the New Zealand Rugby Union created a new local super rugby event called Super Rugby Aotearoa. In the 2020 Super Rugby Aotearoa, Highlanders won only three matches and ranked fourth, such as two against the Chiefs (28-27) and (31-33) and one from the Hurricanes by a score of 38-21.
In 2021 Super Rugby Aotearoa, the Highlanders received fourth place again by winning three games. They won over the Chiefs (23-39), Crusaders (12-33), and the Blues (35-29). After completing Super Rugby Aotearoa 2021, Highlanders took part in the Super Rugby Trans-Tasman 2021 competition in which they first played against the Reds and won the game by a score of 40-19. They also won all four games against Force (15-25), Rebels (42-27), Waratahs (59-23), and Brumbies (12-33).
