It will be a familiar side that runs out for the Hurricanes in Wellington against the Highlanders this weekend, with just two changes made.
The Hurricanes will welcome back utility Jordie Barrett and prop Jeff To'omaga‑Allen to the starting side.
Barrett will start on the wing against the Highlanders in place of Vince Aso, who moves back to the bench, with Chase Tiatia holding on to the No 15 jersey after an impressive outing against the Brumbies.
The Hurricanes will meet the Highlanders at 6.35pm Friday while the Rebels will take on the Brumbies at 8.45pm.
On Saturday, the Crusaders will face the Chiefs at 4.15pm while the Blues will meet the Sunwolves at 6.35pm.
