    So this will probably be DC's debut

    I guess they'll start him at fullback because that's what they planned to do before the calf strain? From MacDonalds comments it seems likely BB will stay at 10

    A backs bench of: A Halfback, O Black & H Plummer? 4 10's in the 23?

        Slightly off, he was covering fullback/10 from the bench when he got scratched

          Go the Highlanders. 🙂 I think if the Blues win this with a bonus point then it removes the Canes from contention. Hopefully someone can prove me otherwise.

                Injuries really starting to bite at the back end of the season. These derbies are massive; great to watch, but so brutal.

                On paper, BLues by heaps ... but WTF knows? Landers seem really well coached at the moment, they are maximising their talent

                  No it doesn't. Canes have 2 games left. Blues have 2 games left.

                    @KiwiMurph yeah but if they win with a bonus point then it will most likely mean the winner of the Crusaders v Blues will take the crown.

                      I'd be tipping Highlanders for this one - I don't think Blues have ever won under the roof.

                      Highlanders with Ioane at 10 are a different beast.

                      I expect Highlanders off the bye to run Blues ragged under the roof who are into their 4th straight game.

                            No the Crusaders have to lose another game for that last match to be a 'final'. They have 3 games left:

                                  Walden to be named in the starting side and last 5 minutes before receiving a red card for viciously taking out DC off the ball.

                                  Hammett to be interviewed at halftime and just say "See!".

                                          KW outs himself as the guy getting professional rugby players to take others out.

                                          "We" indeed. Don't try and get me involved in your filthy gang mate.
