    Hurricanes coach reveals it was an easy call to withdraw Asafo Aumua from Saturday's Super Rugby qualifier against Brumbies

    Hurricanes coach Clark Laidlaw has revealed it was an easy call to withdraw Asafo Aumua from Saturday's Super Rugby qualifying final against the Brumbies in Canberra


    Laidlaw says they tested the hooker's strained hamstring in training and the All Black never looked like being fit enough to play.



    Jacob Devery replaces him in the starting side, with Raymond Tuputupu on the bench.
