2022 School rugby

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.

@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.

went along to WBHS hosting Massey today.
While both sides had a few big boys, they looked smaller than previous years, especially WBHS.
WBHS was leading at the break 9-0, despite spending most of the half inside thier half.
They opened the scoring in the 2nd spell and looked to be cruising as they went ahead 16-0.
Then thier disipline went out the window, got a YC for a high tackle, Massey scored and unconverted try.
Player returned, a few minutes later another YC for a high tackle, about 5 mins later WBHS recived another YC for a breakdown infringement, and in the 5 mins they had 13, Massey hit back with 2 more tries, both unconverted.
Somehow WBHS still lead with about 10 or so on the clock, but they were gettign pinged, short arm and long arm all over the show, Massey scored again to take the lead 22-16, and then, on the stroke of FT, to rub salt in the wound, WBHS were pinged in front of the posts and the penalty denied even a BP.
Were several penalties that were harsh, but ultimately, WBHS fell to pieces and lost the ref in the final 30.
Was about 3 or 4 to go, and despite what I thought was the best option for Massey, they took a penalty tap on thier 22, walked up to the contact, 2 phases, won another penalty, tap, walk into contact, 2 phases, penalty, and again, next thing they are in WBHS 22.
I think WBHS were the better team, bar thier disipline, but lost the plot and couldnt seem to get themselves back.
Not sure of names, as the Website doesnt have the Massey numbers on the names, but think it was a mid-fielder Orlando Faaasou, he was a unit, strong, fast, hard to put down, thier pack probably shaded WBHS at scrumtime.
For WBHS Ben Love, thier 9 is an electric runner, and centre Nathan Salmon makes alot of tackles, cleans out, huge workrate, is tall and quick too.
Both sides have talent, but WBHS need to sort thier disipline.
Anyone know the rulings in this grade for free kicks, as in, what wins one? I think one might be tackles on the chest are a free kick, as there were several instances when free kicks were awarded and I had no idea why.
