Coach Peter Russell has named an unchanged starting lineup for the match and made just two changes to the match. Hooker Siua Maile is back from the rib injury he picked up while playing for Tonga. He replaces Ben Strang on the bench. The other change sees Ofa Tauatevalu in line for his debut with a spot on the bench replacing Veikoso Poloniati.1 Harrison Allan

will be very interested in how Naholo goes seeing as the Landers are still looking for a winger

So are the Crusaders to replace Mataele.

@chris really? didnt think they would need to take a gamble, normally seem to have someone young coming through

Not a lot coming through on the wing apart from maybe Tavatavanawai from Tasmen.
I heard the reason Canterbury offered Naholo a contract was to have a look at him as a SR Option,That's if he delivers for Canterbury. -
@chris after losing Nareki im even more gutted Otago didn't pick him up

See how he goes that knee injury may be a problem, big gamble I think.

Piss poor crowd at this one. Manawatu leading early on. 7-5.
-
TK Howden at 6 for the Turbos looks like one to keep an eye on.
Brett Cameron has outplayed Burke thus far aswell.
Fihaki has looked dangerous for the Cantabs.
-
@canes4life Burke looks pretty average to me.
-
@canes4life Heard Howden went well last week too.
