HIGHLANDERS v FORCE

Dunedin, tonight, 7.35

Referee: Jonathon White

THE MATCH:

Another lock-it-in win for the Highlanders after their easy victory last weekend against the Li ... what the, hang on a minute. Not to put too fine a point on it, last week's dreadful loss has probably cost the Highlanders any chance of appearing in the playoffs, but a win here would at least keep them interested. The Force outplayed the Hurricanes for 65 minutes last week, so have some chance.

WHAT TO WATCH:

The jersey. Has there ever been more to do about nothing? The Highlanders have been in existence for precisely 16 years and have spent the majority of time losing while wearing blue and gold, so they're hardly trampling on a proud tradition.

TIPS:

Andrew Slack (Wallaby legend) 67/99 68%: Highlanders

Mike Greenaway (Natal Mercury) - 67/99 68%: Highlanders

Dylan Cleaver (NZ Herald) - 66/99 68%: Highlanders

Wynne Gray (NZ Herald) 65/99 66%: Highlanders

Rachel Glucina (Herald on Sunday) 64/99 66%: Highlanders
