For this week's Friday Sport Kick-off, Nick is joined by Newstalk ZB’s sports gurus Adam Cooper and Jason Pine. 

How are the Hurricanes looking for the season? Cooper thinks tonight's game against the Highlanders is the true test. 

The crew look at the games ahead for the Hurricanes and the starting players – including Ruben Love.

Phoenix Women are the centre of attention and with a big week ahead this might be the Phoenix club’s chance at silverware. They play Sydney FC tonight.  

To the men's team– the foundations are there, but how will they keep the shoots growing against Brisbane tomorrow?  

And both White Ferns and Black Caps in T20 double headers - Eden Park tonight, Hnry Stadium on Sunday. What are the chances of keeping our key players? 

Plus who stole Nick’s highlighter? 

Find out on Friday Sport kickoff.
