    Nine provinces will be bolstered by All Blacks across the NPC this weekend

    Nine provinces will be bolstered by All Blacks across the NPC this weekend


    Southland and Canterbury get one each for their tussle in Invercargill tomorrow in the form of Ethan de Groot and George Bell.

    Bell toured South Africa but wasn't selected in the two test defeats.

    Canterbury forwards coach Craig Dunlea's kept matters simple ahead of the hooker's first match in more than a month.



    Forwards Pasilio Tosi, Josh Lord, Samipeni Finau, Luke Jacobson, George Bower and Patrick Tuipulotu will feature for their respective unions.

    David Havili's available for Tasman's first Ranfurly Shield defence - challengers Wellington get a boost with Billy Proctor and Ruben Love.
