2022 School rugby

@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.

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.

@Stargazer said in 2022 School rugby:
@mikedogz Can already guess which school is going to win that, but good to see a decent comp.
I presume you mean HGHS.
Sacred Heart Hamilton beat them last year, didn't they?
-
@Chester-Draws Sorry, I don't know. It's already hard to keep up with all schoolboy rugby; if I had to follow all schoolgirl rugby (other than in my own province) as well, it would become a day job. Hamilton Girls' seem to be the eternal Top 4 winners, although I can't check that either because the wikipedia page about the Top 4 only lists the boys schools' results and not girls schools' and coed schools'.

IIRC HGHS won big last year.
