    I refkon Hurley will get 20 - 30 minutes. Why pick him if you don't plan on playing him. Especially if there are a couple of other options.

      @SouthernMann i kind of think no rules in playoffs, regular season, even if someone is playing well they get pulled looking at the rest of the season, experience for the bench and rest for the starter.....neither of which id be worried about in playoffs

        Tele'a is a game-changing inclusion... that bench scares me though. I would have had Faleafaga there as specialist cover. Hurley won't see the field unless we are getting smoked or there is an injury.

        Yeah I’d have preferred the same. Faleafaga over Te Hiwi for me but the logical reasoning is having midfield cover for Telea’s bad injury run of late which makes sense. They must feel comfortable enough in Gilbert to step in at 10 if something were to happen to Cam, if not we’d probably have seen Ajay and Te Hiwi on the bench.

          I just believe he has been picked to play, not fill out a jersey. They will have a plan where he is on the field.

              We have a punchers chance. Brumbies in Canberra are a good side. We do have a reasonable record there though.

                @ruggabee good to see smart decisions were being made on away jerseys even 4 seasons ago. Highlanders should've been made to wear their warm up jackets.

                      I see Angus Gardner is the referee... I'm happy with that.

                              I would have probably started Whaanga over Te Hiwi. I thought he was decent last week in a spot start against the Canes, better than Te Hiwi has been in most of the games he’s played anyway(except crusaders game).

                              Here’s hoping Te Hiwi pulls off an absolute blinder tonight and shows all his talents.

                              Up the landers!!!

                                  Let's remember another selector picked Jonah Lowe at centre earlier in the year. They are way worse than me.

                                        Interested to see how Gilbert and Te Hiwi can gel in the midfield. Haven’t had that combination this season. Also interested to see how Te Hiwi goes at 13, when he’s started he’s been at 12 for us. Hopefully being that little bit wider and being in those wider channel helps his game by providing him with a little more time.
