Highlanders vs Blues Preview
The Highlanders can keep alive their finals prospects in Round 8 of Super Rugby Aotearoa, but they’ll need to beat the second placed Blues.
The Highlanders delivered the Crusaders their first loss off the season two weeks back, but squandered an opportunity to consolidate third position when they lost to the Chiefs.
With that opponent now in the box seat, every result is crucial for the Dunedin-based franchise, and they’ll need to draw on all of their strengths to win this.
The Blues have been a clear second in Super Rugby Aotearoa all season, and enter this match fresh off the bye week.
At home, the Highlanders can muster seriously special performances, and I am banking on it this week.
