    Highlanders are now my second favourite team

    Highlanders Mana

    Aaron Smith to take a dive, Mo'unga gets red carded, Cameron subs on. Highlanders by 30

    couldn't beat them in dunners i doubt we'll be able to get up in chch, hope for a closer game than last time, hope we can come p with a game plan and execute it, if we do loose it would be nice if its just down the the Crusaders doing what the Crusaders do and not us trying to out crusader them

    Ioane at 10 definitely helps the Highlanders but they still look unsettled outside him in the backs.

    The scrum will be really important - Crusaders will target scrum dominance after seeing the Highlanders scrum last week - look for penalties there and then gain territory off of the back of it.

    i just have this feeling sio is going to get a card and the saders will get a lead and a head of steam...maybe collins and Thompson in the midfield...not exactly huge x factor though.....think we're really showing how important a good midfield is now days...can bank on just getting it to the wing and so can rely on those guys to have all the x factor

    @KiwiMurph

    The most obvious selection is that Tokolahi needs to start ahead of Thwaites.

    Walden to make a surprise appearance and leave half the crusaders backline with concussion because their brains couldn't handle his maaaad skilz.

    Matchbox to show his form was all about him protesting the treatment of Walden.

    @Kiwiwomble to be absolutely disgusted at posters being critical of their teams poor play.
