Otago has reached the point in their season where they can stop worrying about the semi-finals - although they could still make the top 4, they can only get a maximum of 39 points and that may still not be enough. But they do have 4 home games to come and will be seeing a path to a few wins and mid-table respectability. This has the smell of a dangerous game for the Bay especially if Otago get an early lead and a bit of confidence. Burman in for Moore the only change to the starting XV.

Toby Arnold, Nigel Hunt, Wayne Hughson, Phil Burleigh, Jason Hona, Mike Delany, Junior Poluleuligaga, Colin Bourke (captain) Luke Braid, Zac Hohneck, Culum Retallick, Mark Burman, James McGougan, John Pareanga, Joe Savage.
Reserves: Dean Elmiger, Josh Hohneck, John Moore, Matt Henwood, Ben Smith, Cory Aporo, Zar Lawrence.

Geoff and Nicky Oliver spent a month last year chasing the All Blacks around Europe, so a quick jaunt to Dunedin this weekend is child's play.

The avid Bay of Plenty fans have joined a handful of supporters heading down to watch the Steamers play Otago tomorrow night, as Bay's new supporter's club starts to spread its tentacles.
