Show Preview
The Hurricanes and the Highlanders will be looking to end their disappointing Super Rugby Aotearoa campaigns on a high when they lock horns in Wellington. Keep an eye on proceedings with live scores right here on The Roar from 5:05pm (AEST).
It has been a dismal season for the Hurricanes, winning just one match to sit two games behind in last spot on the table. It means they have nothing to play for but pride in this one.
One-time All Black Julian Savea makes a welcome return to the No.14 jersey after being rested for their 26-24 loss to the Chiefs.
Today will also bring the Highlanders’ season to a close, though they can leapfrog the Blues into third with a win. They will be keen to reverse the result of their last match against the ‘Canes back in March, a 19-30 loss giving Jason Holland’s men their sole victory for the season.
Kick-off: 5:05pm (AEST)
