There's nerves in the air as the Blues gear up for their Super Rugby final this weekend.

It's been 21 years since the franchise lifted a full Super Rugby title - something they can end against the Chiefs at a sold-out Eden Park on Saturday.

Blues head coach Vern Cotter says the team are hoping to play well, but they've seen what the Chiefs can do on the field.

"We know it's a final and finals are played with utmost intensity... we've locked that in and the boys are trained well."
