Super Rugby Aotearoa: Highlanders put faith in Folau Fakatava - and Mitch Hunt

Highlanders Highlanders halfback Aaron Smith says plans are already in place for him to make it through to the 2023 Rugby World Cup. Highlanders fans still labouring under the misapprehension that Mitch Hunt was an Aaron Mauger/Crusaders old boys selection last year promptly need to reassess that view. New head coach Tony Brown also admires Hunt and his selection at No 15 against the Chiefs on Friday shows that Hunt s communication and leadership abilities continue to be a valued currency within the Highlanders, even if he doesn t always get the plaudits from outside the camp.

Super Rugby: Highlanders name Aaron Smith on bench for Chiefs clash

Hunt starts at No 15 this week, with former Chief Solomon Alaimalo moved to the bench. Highlanders CEO Roger Clark told Stuff on Tuesday: “Aaron Smith is pretty determined to give him the leg up that [former All Blacks No 9] Jimmy Cowan gave him. “We ve got a great history here with our halfbacks. We had two All Blacks halfbacks and one passed that onto the other. “Hopefully, that will happen again with these two.” Up front, the Highlanders have largely stuck with the side that lost 26-13 to the Crusaders, although athletic lock Manaaki Selby-Rickit has been recalled to the 23 in place of Bryn Evans and will start on the bench.
