Highlanders vs Hurricanes Preview
There was a feeling last week that if the Hurricanes could not beat the Chiefs in Wellington, they would not be able to defeat anybody in the Super Rugby Aotearoa competition.
Well, they blew a 26-7 halftime lead against the lowly Chiefs, a side that had not won a match since March 6, 2020.
As for the Highlanders, they did manage to defeat the Chiefs when they faced off at the start of March but it seems like the market is holding their 1-2 record against them.
It does not seem likely that the Highlanders will be competing with the Blues and Crusaders but they are still a step ahead of where the last placed Hurricanes are at.
