Canterbury side named for NPC Final
- 1078
The South Island showdown promises to be an epic chapter in provincial rugby history, with a massive crowd expected to pack the stands for the final NPC clash at this iconic venue. Canterbury will take the field without All Blacks call-ups Sam Darry and George Bell, but there’s no shortage of firepower as Liam Jack and Brodie McAlister step into the starting XV, ready to make their mark on the biggest stage.
Expect intensity, pride, and passion — this is more than a final, it’s a farewell worthy of the red and black legacy.
