@bovidae TBH I am not sure...I know traditionally it was a strong comp, but I guess that included Kaitaia, BOI, Dargaville (with Kaitaia slightly worse travel times to games) which still means some travel.
That said, I know in school boy stuff, Northland schools have always struggled v Auckland ones.
They use to have the winner of the northland schools comp play winner of north harbour one before then winner of that went on to play the Auckland ones. I recall one year Westlake beat Whangarei by about 50 points and then a week later westlake went down by about the same margin vs the top Auckland team. It showed a real difference between the 3 comps

Quite surprised at how well Takapuna Grammer are going so far this year in the harbour comp. Its out local school and they aren't really known for their rugby. 4/4 (including a win over Rosmini) and only unbeaten side along with Westlake (my old school). Will def try and catch the game between them in the next few weeks.

@jk yeah I know right through my schooling when we went to play Auckland schools we always got smashed, was more often down to size.
In my 1st 15 year we had a very good team, were the best team in Northland, but got smoked by Kelston, who were a good side then, but weren't the best in Auckland.
I know Kamo HS played Wesley up here that year too, and a young fella named Jonah pretty much destroyed them.

Dilworth over MAGS is the standout result.
That's HUGE!!
I remember at school the dilworth first and 2nd elevens got their fields mixed up. I was in our schools second and we ended up having a hard thought 1 nil win over their 1st eleven. We'd won every game convincingly til then and expected a walkover. Didnt find out it was their first side until after the game had finished. Meanwhile the dilworth 2nd eleven were getting punished and went down 24 nil

@bovidae MAGS don't seem to be up to much this year.

@african-monkey Quite a fall from being national champs only 2 years ago.

Went digging through old photos and archives at home and came across this beauty of booklet - "National Regional Secondary School Rugby Championship" Featuring 4 teams including: 1. Blues Schools 2. Chiefs Schools 3. Hurricanes Schools 4. South Island Schools The tournament was held at Auckland Grammar and was taken out won by the Hurricanes Schools in the final over the Chiefs Schools.

I have worked out roughly 58% of the players at the tournament played Mitre 10, about 1/3 of the players have played Super Rugby and 12 players have pulled on the Black jersey. Below are some names that will be easily recognised: BLUES SCHOOLS - Steven Luatua, Bryn Hall, Gareth Anscombe, Francis Saili and Ofa Tuungafasi CHIEFS SCHOOLS - Nepo Laulala, Sam Cane and Charles Piutau HURRICANES SCHOOLS - Codie Taylor, TJ Perenara, Lima Sopoaga, Brad Weber and Beauden Barrett. SOUTHERN SCHOOLS - Brodie Rettalick and Marty McKenzie ---------------TOTAL PLAYERS - 92 Mitre 10 - 53 (58%) Super - 30 (33%) All Blacks - 12 (13%) BLUES SCHOOLS Mitre 10 - 13 Super - 9 All Blacks - 3 CHIEFS SCHOOLS Mitre 10 - 9 Super - 4 All Blacks - 3 CANES SCHOOLS Mitre 10 - 19 Super - 13 All Blacks - 5 SOUTHERN SCHOOLS Mitre 10 - 12 Super - 4 All Blacks - 1 -
