If there is to be a massive upset this week then this is the match it will come in,the Hurricanes have changed a number of players here today and although nthey are still looking very strong the Cheetahs are'nt the easy beats many think and at home even more so.

The Cheetahs are fresh off their bye in this game and after a great comerback against the Stormers in their last match they will be thinking they are a chance here today against a Canes side fresh off a very hard match last week against the Stormers and missing players.The Cheetahs are'nt a bad team but they just get no luck in alot of their matches,but at home they do and against a Canes side who might be viewing this game as "Just Another Win"they could get a surprise.

The Canes have lost Gopperth and Collins and get Ripira in at the all important first five position and also give winger Zach Guilford a start.both players are handy but both don't get alot of game time and that could affect the Canes this week,they have also made 4 positional changes in their side but I won't go into that,The Hurricanes have all the talent in the world but take a few players out of their line up and they revert back to playing a mistake ridden game that allows their opposition to get a foothold in their games,The Canes might still look mighty on paper but I have a funny feeling that they could be beatn this weekend by a comitted and rested Cheetahs side looking for anything that resembles a win.

These two sides have played each other twice with either side winning at home,last season the Canes won 37-15 in Wellington,the season before the Cheetahs won at home 27-25.

This match although on paper looks like a win to the Canes,I have my doubts over it,the Cheetahs are not to be taken lightly at home and the Canes are always a threat no matter where they play,I thought the Canes looked good last week in patches but just could'nt get the rub of the green at stages and away from home thats what you should expect,i'm expecting a very hard game here and I don't want to tip the Canes by 12 or less because I actually think the Cheetahs will get up here...Take the Cheetahs with the start..Good Luck.
