By Waikato, I think they mean Auckland.

@Duluth Nope, I haven't seen anything. Very disappointing coverage this year. I've only seen half time and full time updates and a few photos. It's all very low key. I wonder why? Cost-cutting? I doubt it will keep scouts from NRL away ...

@Stargazer a few players showing some real class in this game.
Taine Plumtree, Shamus Langton, Josh Southall, Keinan Higgins and Tyrone Thompson all superb in this match, pushing their case for Under 20 selection next year and for further NPC and Super contracts going forward.
Plumtree senior looked happy in the crowd with his sons efforts. Fair play to Taine he was probably the pick of the bunch today. Has a superb all round game.

@Canes4life Yes, it was a good game. I think those were indeed the best Wellington players. I hope Leo Thompson's hamstring injury - which prevented him from playing this game and showing his skills - is not going to cost him a possible spot in the U20s.
