This is the last round of the Mitre10 Cup and there is still plenty to play for. There are a couple of teams that haven’t got anything to fight for but most are either looking at finals or relegation.
Here are my Mitre10 Cup Round 9 Predictions:
In brief here are my round 9 predictions:
| Taranaki v Manawatu | Taranaki by 7 |
| Wellington v Northland | Wellington by 10 |
| Auckland v Canterbury | Canterbury by 10 |
| Bay of Plenty v Waikato | Waikato by 5 |
| Otago v Southland | Otago by 10 |
| Counties Manukau v Tasman | Tasman by 5 |
| North Harbour v Taranaki | Taranaki by 5 |
