The Chiefs and club captain Connacht bound Craig Clarke are celebratiing consecutive Super Rugby titles today after they completed a sensational second-half comeback today to defeat the Brumbies in the Super 15 Final
The post-match celebrations featured plenty of this beer, made by the presumptuously cocky Waikato Draught company:

The highlight of the on-field celebrations, before the players headed to a beer-filled dressing room, was a spine-tingling haka in front of the main stand at Waikato Stadium.
Man-of-the-match Liam Messam said the haka was a tradition for the New Zealand club as it reminded them of their roots and familial bond to each other. It was also a way of paying tribute to friends and family in the crowd.
