    Why, with Hamilton beating Hastings in their match-ups have you gone for them?

    Betting on Super 8 teams is a good bet, but I'd generally go for the winner.

    It's our turn!

    My head says Hamilton but obviously the heart wants Hastings, and from what I've been told the Super 8 final could have gone either way.

    I'm sure Hastings will have learned a lot. What you forget is that Hamilton are unlikely to have learned nothing.

    An analysis that runs -- Team A won both last recent meetings, therefore Team B will win the next one -- fails to convince me. To be sure it's not always true, but generally a team wins because it is the better team.

    @Chester-Draws Hamilton won by 23 in the first meeting and then by 8 a week later. In both matches Hamilton had the luxury of playing at home. Both teams will be rested and on the road for this game.

    Any Hamilton BHS 1st XV is well drilled and well coached. Hastings are a good team, they have been really good for a few seasons now. In reality there is very little between the two sides.

    I just think at a neutral venue and with the fact Hastings have probably got a point to prove after the two losses we may see the balance tip in Hasting's favour this time....just my 2 cents worth

    Anything can happen in the Top 4 but as someone who was at both Hamilton-Hastings games and every other Hamilton home game, if I was a betting man I would be putting money on King's. I think they are the strongest of the 4 teams across the park. Nelson will probably upset them in the SF now. 馃檪

    @Tim he looks the goods, definitely strong but I am unsure of his top end pace he鈥檚 no Rieko Ioane at the same age so it will be interesting to see how he progresses ..
    Saw the Auckland mitre 10 cup team training at Alexandra Park earlier this afternoon, looked very intense physical session with plenty of spice in the hits ..
    Can鈥檛 wait for Sunday, should be a beauty..!

    Hastings also won against Hamilton in the under 15s final. Napier lost to palmy with a last minute penalty for losers play off.

    I don鈥檛 think so - @Stargazer is watching it on Sky and updating in the Magpies section.

    Second win in three years for Hastings. Not the biggest or richest school; they must be doing something very right.
