We're one sleep away from the finals series of Super Rugby kicking off with the first match set for tomorrow night. The Brumbies are crossing the ditch to take on the Hurricanes at Hnry Stadium.

The Brumbies have been a bogie team for the Canes in playoff matches having lost the last three Quarter Finals they have played them in. However, the Hurricanes are on fire this year and it will be a massive challenge for the team from Canberra.

Stephen Larkham is the head coach of the Brumbies, he joined D'Arcy to discuss.

There are three mouthwatering clashes this weekend in the Super Rugby Pacific playoffs, the Hurricanes taking on the Brumbies, the Blues taking on the Crusaders and the Chiefs taking on the Reds.

The All Blacks team for 2026 is set to be named right after Super Rugby finishes and all of the sides have rather large injury wards with the likes of Will Jordan, Fabian Holland and Tamaiti Williams unlikely to feature in the upcoming nations championship.

Which players can use to finals to demand selection? And who must stand up to prove they deserve higher honours?

Ricki Herbert is a former All Whites coach, he joined D'Arcy to discuss the loss.
