NOBM v Clive -
Next week's final is a repeat of last year's.
I didn't see either game, but both could be termed upsets.
Clive came from behind to win over top qualifiers Hastings RS and Napier OB Marist won by an astonishing margin despite, apparently, having seven front line players out injured.

@footy01 I misread it as well the first time I saw that post, but then I noticed it was written as a question. Maybe it's possible, because they've both played games before the finals? Anyway, I seriously doubt the Canes will release Jonah. Maybe Tiaan.

Yes indeed, 37-7 to Clive, six tries to one. As decisive as the scoreline suggests. Only poor goalkicking prevented Clive from going past 40. They even missed a penalty from inside the NOBM 22 before any scoring occurred.
Clive led just 8-7 until a try a minute before halftime to lead 13-7. Second half was one-way traffic, keeping NOBM scoreless.
Jonah Lowe scored two tries on the right wing for Clive and Tiaan Falcon played the whole second 40, kicking one conversion.
JJ Taulagi picked up his fifth yellow card of the season - pushing/shoving after a tackle - and went off injured a minute before fulltime. Has the ability to beat a man but his temperament is a liability.
To underline NOBM's day they didn't score any points with Taulagi's yellow card and the one man advantage.
Stockcar86 - are you okay?
