Manawatu won't have the services of their All Blacks halfback for today's home NPC match

But while Aaron Smith wasn't released this week, the Turbos' guests Hawke's Bay are bringing TWO of their own ABs halfbacks to Palmerston North.

In fact it's an embarassment of riches for Magpies coach Josh Syms - with THREE test number nines to choose from.



Syms has named Folau Fakatava and Brad Weber for today's game... kickoff's at 4.35pm, commentary as usual on Gold Sport and iHeart Radio.
