@Canes4life It could well be that this might just be the two starting props final games for Ories, especially Whetu, so they could well be giving them the accolade of starting in their final games.

[Bovidae]

Marty Holah on the bench for Hamilton Marist tomorrow. I think he is part of the coaching team.

[mikedogz]

Finlay Christie might be playing for Pukekohe along with Sam Henwood.

@mikedogz Is he playing for Counties this season? (Christie)

[mikedogz]

I haven't heard anything yet. If he is going to Blues, a good chance he might sign with Counties. Jonathan Taumateine is still there as far as I know and Liam Daniela was announced as being signed to a contract.

He is Pukekohe boy but if still at Ta$man he should really play there.

Jonathan Taumateine

Did he get any minutes for the Chiefs this year?

[mikedogz]

A few games off the bench.

Counties claim SBW as their All Black this year but he was allowed to play for Ponsonby who have claimed him as their 50th All Black. Joe Royal plays their too but I have heard he is still Counties. Puni is SBW's club lol.

[Bones]

@Canes4life bit of a lemon on the bench though.

Post in the ABs thread re Karl T getting a run for Takapuna tomorrow in the quarter final vs Massey. Also of interest is the man named at number 6.....the one and only Adam Thomson.

Watched Taka play last week against my Northcote side (good guys won) but will prob pop down again to see the above two players in action

So popped down and saw a great game of rugby. Takapuna winning 23-22 with a try converted from sideline (off the post even) with 2 mins to play. Massey had tavita Li on one wing and mark talea (brumbies ?) on other wing.

Both Karl T and Adam Thomson played full games and played well. Funnily my son and I sat down by a lass who turned out to be Adams partner so got all the details about why he’s here and playing. Apparantly has something lined up in the US but it’s on hold so while in NZ he’s keen for some rugby. Got 20mins last week and then after today’s effort should also play next week in the semi final. May be here a while yet by the sounds and could be available for harbour. Hasn't played a lot of rugby since the spine infection (I think 18months off in total and almost 6 months in hopsital) but clearly still has it. Ruthless in the breakdown, useful in lineouts and took almost all the kickoffs although made a clean spill of one. Heard a loud call of 'FINE!!' from behind me in the crowd when it happened.

Oh and Northcote beat kumeu 50-23 so next weeks semi finals will be

ECB hosting Takapuna
North shore hosting Northcote

Playing for Ories at Miramar Polo Ground in driving, horizontal rain. Great to see Ma'a still living the f***ing dream!

Takapuna has a prop whose first name is Teancum.

A refreshing liquid combination prior to a big game.

So apparently Canterbury have scheduled their first preseason game for the same weekend as the club final here in Christchurch. Meaning that all rep players will likely be unavailable.

What a joke.

[mikedogz]

All grades in Counties are into semi finals. My home town club Onewhero not in any

Here in the Waikato the some grades are in to semi's. They are going to host a finals day at the Stadium in two weeks.

A good day for my club Te Rapa on the weekend. Our Clydesdales presidents team celebrated 40 years so a bunch of old boys came and the club was full. Our prezzies won our trophy game Vs the Suburbs Stirrers.

Our A team finished top seed in the Division 1 comp after beating Putaruru and we host next weekend and the final will be at the stadium. Our B's smashed Putaruru as well and are a good chance as well.

I hear a few AB's will play club rugby this weekend. BBBR playing somewhere in the Hawkes Bay.

[chchfanatic]

@SammyC Lincoln aren’t going to make semis so it won’t matter

[Yeetyaah]

@mikedogz He playing local rugby? Thought he was in Japan now?
