MAUGER ON TUESDAY’S HIGHLANDERS CLASH

They play really exciting footy and that’s one of the reasons I’m heading there. They’ll be fast and they’ll test the Lions with their tempo.

ONE TO WATCH?

Luke Whitelock (right) is an outstanding leader at No 8. He will leave his mark on a game.

... AND NEW ZEALAND MAORI NEXT SATURDAY

Any Maori team is guaranteed to be proud and physical. Beat the Lions last time around in 2005. ONE TO WATCH? Damian McKenzie will spot any chinks in the defensive line. He’s a small fella but he’s strong, elusive and fast.
