@Chris-B said in Championship Final - Hawke's Bay v Northland:
In the unlikely event that we somehow beat the lardy-arsed Aucklanders on Saturday, I may have to resort to my persona as supremely gracious winner!
Underdog status and fictional character all in one post. Impressive.
We might be upsetting the second division guys a bit here...
I actually would like to see the shield up for grabs in the Hawkes v Taniwha match. Adds some extra interest to the "championship" final.

I don't know why I found "Championship" so funny, but I did

If ever the nation wanted to get behind North(Auck)land rugby, this weekend it is.
Taniwha for life 😎

i think it would be pretty cool for a Union that by all metrics should have been cut from the competition years ago (had the NZRU not blinked) to get a piece of silverware.

For the first half of that sentence you can eat a big fat d**k!

Northland need to win for that weird old guy they used to show on Sports Cafe who used to jump up and down and yell "BLUE!" in to a jug

@mariner4life well 'Blue' as he his affectionately known, still travels around following the team (did have a couple of year hiatus as I believe he was ill)

Does that mean you are supporting Ta$man/Southern Vikings this weekend?

@Donsteppa not looking good from what I have heard...

@taniwharugby What happened to Harrison Levien? Is he out for the season?

No Sam Nock, Cooper on Bench, Hawkins to start, Corey Taylor comes onto bench, otherwise 13 of the 15 who have started the last 2 games are unchanged...those 2 changes to the starting 15 are massive.
