    Maori All Blacks coach Clayton McMillan is tempering expectations of a dynamic, clinical performance in the tonight's opener against Ireland in Hamilton


    Halfbacks Brad Weber and TJ Perenara will co-captain the side which features ten debutants, four in the starting lineup.

    Kick off's at five past seven.

    Live commentary on Gold Sport and iHeartradio.
