    Captain Beauden Barrett's right boot could be the key to a home Super Rugby final for the Blues


    The table toppers host the Brumbies in tonight's semifinal for a chance to face the Crusaders in the big dance next weekend.

    Kickoff from Eden Park's at five past seven - and we'll have expert commentary free to air for you, on Gold AM and iHeart Radio.
