    A balancing act for Otago skipper Sam Gilbert as he deals with the high stakes of tonight's NPC semifinal against Bay of Plenty in Dunedin


    The blue-and-golds are searching for their first domestic title since 1998, having already locked up the Ranfurly Shield for the summer.

    Gilbert says while the semifinal should be celebrated, he's trying to stay as grounded as possible.



    Kickoff is at 7.15pm - live commentary on Gold Sport and iHeart Radio.
