Highlanders vs Hurricanes Preview
Round 5 of Super Rugby Aotearoa opens in Dunedin on Friday afternoon and a terrific opportunity awaits the Highlanders.
The Highlanders are fresh following a week off, and they’ve returned several typically tough efforts already this season, not reflective of their 1-2 season record.
The Hurricanes, while noticeably better, have been New Zealand’s equivalent of the Waratahs in 2021.
They arrive in Round 5 winless after three matches and off the back of a defeat to the previously winless Chiefs.
The line has been set at less than a try at just 4.5 points, and I think that the Highlanders will cover that comfortably at Forsyth-Barr.
