@Higgins theres a few 1st 5s in Wellington showing out at the moment. Rongotai have a good year 13 at 10. Bernards have a league kid playing 1st 5 who goes well. Scots bought a kid in from up north or Aussie i hear. Mana college might have the best of the bunch, the young kid with the step and crisp pass. Pats have a good left footer running the cutter. So many options
Can I remind you that three of the schools you mentioned were on the receiving end of what must have been disappointing scorelines in the Tranzit Series for those concerned. Imagine what those might have been like had it not been for the first fives you mentioned! Could it be that there is another JGB out there lurking awaiting their Hurricanes contract? Still it was only preseason as they say.......................................
-
@Higgins I doubt the teams see this as preseason, considering this is basically the main opportunity to get seen by the Hurricanse U18 selecters playing against each other. The only other games are those for the Hurricanes Cup after the Super 8 and Wellington Premiership have finished. And that impacts on who gets picked for NZ Schools camp. Although, now they have regional scouts, it will be interesting to see whether that's going to make a difference to selections.
-
@Stargazer I know they are full on games but I was only using the pre season analogy as a way of softening the blow for the pounding the Wellington teams got!!!!!! Naturally I am overjoyed at those results the HB sides keep inflicting on schools from that region.

Round 1- Wellington College 24 - 33 Gisborne BHS
- Scots College 21 - 47 Palmerston North BHS
- St Pat's Wgtn 5 - 43 Napier BHS
- St Pat's Silverstream 0 - 24 Hastings BHS
Highlights of one of those games
-
@Higgins Some great individual actions by that Wellington College 10 that you mentioned; he looks good in that clip posted by @Duluth! He makes Wellington College's attack look good, but their defence seems very leaky. Overall, GBHS looking stronger, some big boys easily breaking through Wellington College's defence, but some of their tackles made me cringe, especially the one where the Wellington player scores in the corner.
This weekend's games will be interesting. If I can find the time, I may still watch last weekend's games that didn't involve HB schools.

McGlashan trio boast illustrious pedigrees
It's not the 1990s - but there is a Joseph on the side of the scrum and a Timu out wide. And the ‘‘Bear’’ is back.
The score in this game was:
Southland BHS 17 - 23 John McGlashan College -

Auckland and Counties haven't got girls draws out yet but I expect a Counties only draw, they usually run a 1st XV and a ten aside comp. Not a lot of info around about it, I just saw the competition when browsing the Waikato draws. Invite only apparently.

Matamata College v Tauranga BC - 11.00amI was reading that these two schools play for a trophy, which Matamata currently hold, but haven't played each other since 1996.
