2020 Hawke's Bay Representative Rugby

Right, I'm in and my apologies to all, especially you TR, for picking the 'Poo, not to mention taking Ta$man 17+. I'm off to wash my mouth out with soap. Anyway Number10, if you are not Billsy then you can retain your spot in the Team by tipping anyway and I'll move Propsicle into the draft. I will be seeing him at the Wellington v MSP Swindale Shield match tomorrow as I have a gut feeling that I will be owing him a beer that we have at stake in the match and will let him know if that becomes necessary.

I forgot - keep Billsy in in place of me.

The HBRU didn't post it until very late, so I missed the livestreamed match of the Hawke's Bay Academy team against Ngati Porou East Coast, this afternoon. The video is still available, so you can still watch it, if you like.
You can find it here: https://cdn.hbapp.co.nz/news/watch-live-hawkes-bay-saracens-vs-east-coast-rugby-from-12pm
The HBRU also didn't post the team line-up, but fortunately, the commentators went through the list:
1 Jayden Walker, 2 Damarus Hokianga, 3 Jacob Ward, 4 Frank Lochore, 5 Tupou Afungia, 6 Lexus Greening, 7 Jacob Stephenson, 8 Hannon Brighouse, 9 Humphrey Sheild, 10 Latrell Smiler-Ah Kiong, 11 Joeli Suka, 12 Zach Simpson, 13 Hemaua Samasoni, 14 Ryan Lindeque, 15 John Ika.
Reserves: Joe Walding-Karaitiana, Troy McIvor, Paula Latu, Dom Devine, Connor McLeod, Duff Penitito, 23 Trent Hape
(They seemed to forget one player; I don't see a lock in the list of reserves).I must admit that there are a few names that I don't recognise.
Anyway, if you want to know the score, you can find it below:

Hawke's Bay Academy 85 - 24 Ngati Porou East Coast

I just noticed on the sideline app website that they've scheduled the livestreaming of a game between the Hawke's Bay Saracens and Waikato Development, on Sat 19 September (12.55pm). It doesn't mention any cost, so possible free if you've registered with Sideline app.

Hopefully, it will be possible to watch the game on demand, as it's at the same time as the Wellington v Tui game.

After a superb victory in the first round of the Tipping Competition the HB team lead the points table by one point. An excellent start guys but it looks like the aftermatch function is still in full swing with tips for this weeks encounter against the always competitive Wellington Tipping team still being awaited from Stargazer, PAJ and Billsy/Number10. Come on chaps we can't afford to front up short of full muster so please give it some urgency given that entries are needed by 7.05pm. If you miss the first game you can still tip the remainder but missing the first game means you chuck a gift ten points away, even if it does mean having to pick Ta$man

The game is still scheduled on sideline app. I managed to get to the link after login:
Haven't seen anything on the HBRU Facebook pages about this game, yet.

Fifty minutes played in this game and the Hawke's Bay Saracens/Academy (not sure which one it is) are leading 27 to 7.
I haven't seen a team list, but with a quick glance I recognise Humprey Shield, Liam Udy-Johns, Bas Visinia, Elijah Martin, I think Jacob Devery as well.

Not a single word from the HBRU, but I managed to find out that the Hawke's Bay Saracens beat Wanganui, yesterday. The final score was 36 - 12 to the good guys.
This team list was posted on Facebook by Wanganui:
Hawkes Bay Saracens 36 (L Greening, F Lochore, Z Simpson, J Ika tries; penalty try; J Thompson-Dunn 2 con)
Wanganui 12 (W Cottrell, J Bogileka tries; N Harding con).
HT: 17-5.Long match report from Wanganui: https://wanganuirugby.co.nz/wp/2020/09/26/match-report-steelform-wanganui-vs-hawkes-bay-saracens-26-09-20/

@Paj @Propsicle @Stockcar86 @stargazer @Number-10
Just taken a call from Triple T of the Bush Tipping Team. Confident prick has taken me on in the Tipping Match between his mob and the Bay for a jug. Naturally the wager was accepted. After mustering a full turnout last week we somehow scrambled a draw against Northland when none of us were at out best. Hopefully that was simply us saving our top form for this week's encounter against the generally impregnable Wairarapa-Bush Team. Upon checking it looks like we are keeping our powder dry with no one having tipped yet, hopefully that it is not complacency setting in but rather an indication that every single aspect that needs to be taken into consideration before making those picks is still being pondered. A tricky situation though in the last match of the round where naturally it is assumed that each and everyone of us will be tipping the away team by some margin or other!
I actually woke up rather suddenly last night after clearly hearing Micheal Buffer's voice in my crystal clear dream announcing "and the judges score card see a unanimous decision in favour of the team fighting out of the Black corner and NEW" and that's as far as he got. I did not need to hear any more to know exactly what that meant!
Anyway heres the link to this week's tipping sheet, remember cut off time for tonight's easy ten pointer is 7.05PM
