    Hastings Boys: 47 (McClutchie 2x, Tavita-Metcalfe (2x), Mua, Udy-Johns, Naholo tries; Toala con 6x)
    St Pats Stream: 17 (Masima, Higgins, Svenson tries; Boyle con)

    MOTM: Devan Flanders (well deserved IMO)

    That second try from McClutchie was awesome, by the way!

    3 of the 4 teams in the Top 4 are the same as last year. Only the Blues region has a different school - St Kents for MAGS.

    @Bovidae said in 2017 School Rugby:

    Final score 47-17.

    Hastings took a penalty from in front at the end...and missed. Naholo only 1 try.

    So the Top 4 is set:

    St Kents vs Hastings BHS
    Hamilton BHS v Southland BHS

    Bovidae - how is the draw made?

    Is it on some kind of rotation?

    Last year it was:
    Auckland winner v South Island winner
    Chiefs winner v Hurricanes winner

    @Number-10 Yes, rotated every year so each team plays a team from a different region over a 3-yr period.

    Next year will be Blues vs Chiefs and Hurricanes vs South Island

    A summary of the finals for all 3 competitions which starts tomorrow. St Peters beat Feilding (away) in the CNI so are capable of doing that again.

    Are Hastings really strong favourites? More likely just only slight favourites as they've had a small win and draw with Hamilton this year.

    @Nepia I agree. They were strong favourites for the Hurricanes Final, but the Top 4 is a different kettle of fish. They've earned their favourites role due to their unbeaten streak and the fact they lost last year's final only by one point after another unbeaten streak. But Hamilton is close, and their win over St Kent's was in preseason with both teams missing players. Southland's strength is probably the biggest unknown. I think a lot will depend on the form of the day.

    Must say I expected a lot more resistance from St Kent's, but Hastings was much better. Hastings handled the tough, windy conditions very well, made good decisions and had a rock solid defence. St Kent's handling errors cost them dearly.

    MOTM: Jeriah Mua

    A very dominant performance by Hastings.

    St Kents were not very smart when they were on attack but Hastings' defence was too good. I was disappointed in Nanai after the hype.

    @Bovidae Yes, Nanai did nothing to impress.

    Hopefully, Fakatava's knee injury isn't serious, but I'd be surprised if he'll be able to play the final. Shame. He's been brilliant all season and then probably missing the final. Sad.

    @Bovidae Not surprised with those 2 finalists, although the score in the second semi is much bigger than expected. Maybe Southland Girls, last year's champions, lost a lot of players since last year (talented Black Ferns 7s player Alena Saili being one of them). Anyway, I'd be surprised if Hamilton Girls don't win the final, despite St Mary's again fielding a strong team.

    Result from the first co-ed semi:

    Feilding 44 v Rangitoto 3

    This means that the Hurricanes region have all three semifinalists going through to the final and that Auckland won't be represented in the finals.

    In the other co-ed semi, St Peter's School is leading 31 to 0 over St Andrews College. I won't be surprised if all Chiefs region semifinalists go through as well.
