After a sluggish start to the season Auckland have now won two on the bounce and will look to make it a third when they take on South Auckland rivals Counties Manukau later today.
Counties Manukau are on the same streak, and will be bolstered by returning All Black halfback Cam Roigard who comes off the bench.
Ahead of the pivotal clash, D'Arcy spoke with Auckland and All Blacks winger Caleb Clarke to preview the game and find out if he has any messages from the All Blacks coaching staff ahead of the first Bledisloe Cup test next weekend.
