An all New Zealand final has been confirmed after the Super Rugby semi-finals were played out today.

The Hurricanes scored four tries on their way to beating the Brumbies 29-9 at the Cake Tin in Wellington this morning. Julian Savea, TJ Perenara, Ardie Savea, James Marshall all scored for the Canes.

Meanwhile the Highlanders overcame a trip to Sydney, beating the Waratahs 35-17 in front of their home crowd. The Highlanders scored a penalty try while Aaron Smith, Richard Buckman, Waisake Naholoa, and Patrick Osborne scored the other four tries to secure their spot in the competition decider.

That means the Hurricanes will host their New Zealand neighbours in Wellington next week.

The Super Rugby final is set to kick-off at 9h35 next Saturday.
