    Auckland will have to endure supporting one of their traditional rivals

    Auckland will have to endure supporting one of their traditional rivals


    The blue and white hoops have maintained their hopes of a Mitre 10 Cup premiership semi-final after beating Taranaki 35-11 in New Plymouth.

    Prop Marcel Renata says that means cheering on the red and blacks.
