Highlanders to welcome back Shannon Frizell for quarter-final against Blues
Shannon Frizell is likely to play for the Highlanders against the Blues in the Super Rugby Pacific quarter-final on Saturday. The All Blacks star has been out injured since April. His return comes as the team is struggling to find form after two straight defeats. Co-captain James Lentjes is injured and his replacement is uncertain. The Highlands are the underdogs against a Blues team that qualified for playoffs as top seeds. They are aware of the quality of their opponents. Their coach Clarke Dermody is aware that the game will be tough. He is hoping Scott Gregory will recover from the flu.
