North Harbour vs Northland

@jk very strong side bar your mid-field really

Interesting combo for NH. Dargaville is normally a winger for the Brumbies and Groundwater seems to be rated by the Blues

What's the basis of this, starts for the dev team?

He's out of the Canterbury academy system, IIRC.

[Duluth]

@tim Who is covering 10?

[Tim]

@duluth Now that is a head-scratcher!

Groundwater? He plays 15 for his club.

He was another player tagged in that photo of Olmstead's new housemates

[Tim]

@duluth Aha! Damn, that bit of detective work is paying off.

@tim Luteru Tolai was a back rower at school so obviously they've transformed him into a front rower now. He had a decent skillset but probably lacked the height to play as a 6/8 so it will be interesting to see how he goes at hooker.

[Tim]

@african-monkey I see he was in the Blues U20 team this year, and Harbour U19 last year.

What's Gjaltema like as a halfback? I'm sure Harrison Levien was hoping to make the NH squad when he moved north.

Any live scoring? Nothing on NZ Herald or Stuff. Mitre 10 Cup official site doesn't work.

God TMO foul play called assistant ref already FFS

[Machpants]

And he was wrong

[Machpants]

Jeez two missed kicks for touch by garland in the minutes, second one went dead!

[JK]

Pretty low quality start so far

Rene is here to play! Great try to some ginger lock

[Dice]

Ranger looking like a fast Weepu.

Bryn Hall looking very average without the Crusaders pack carrying him around.
