Auckland v Harbour
-
@Daffy-Jaffy He always has. I remember seeing him playing at high school for Papatoetoe High and he was nailing goals from everywhere within 50 metres.

@African-Monkey I wonder why he didn't make the PC squad this year, missing out to AJ ALATIMU – Western Force and Ulupano SEUTENI – Borderaux. I don't know them at all. Maybe an experience thing as they are playing at a higher level where he's come straight out of Auckland club rugby.

Prime TV will be showing this game live tomorrow. It seems they'll be showing the Friday night game live every week.
First time in a long time that an NPC game is live on free-to-air TV. And on at a prime time slot of 7:30pm too.
First time since the 1994 NPC final. The infamous battle of Onewa.
Edit actually no, it would be the first time since the 1995 final. Was that the Otago / Colin Hawke/ penalty try game.? (Would actually be a very uncontroversial penalty try in this day and age, where being a bit shit at scrummaging is a sending off offence)

Yes that was 1995
4:43 for the penalty try

Actually looking forward to this game. Both sides have a level of quality to them, and look fairly evenly matched. Four guys with AB experience for Harbour (and my wifes' bosses' son on the bench for extra interest) while Auckland doesn't have any ABs but they have a heap of SR players.

Really looking forward to this game! It's my first game of the Mitre 10 Cup season
Also looking forward to the Waikato and Bay of Plenty games
