    North Harbour are drawing on their shock of eight days ago ahead of their pivotal Mitre 10 Cup match today


    Harbour take on Canterbury with a chance to secure a semi-final spot in the Premiership and claim the Ranfurly Shield.

    They come in off the back of an upset win over second-placed Wellington.

    Wing Matt Duffie says that's given them a lot of confidence.



    Kick off from Christchurch's at 4:35pm, after Northland host Otago at 2:05.
