Hawkes Bay Schoolboy Rugby
-
That Gus Brown is an imposing figure for Napier. Hope the Canes have their eyes on him.
-
@Canes4life IIRC, he's a lock converted into a prop.
-
This a pretty physical match for schoolboy rugby. Plenty of big bodies running around.
-
Have Wellington finally unearthed a good prop? I've heard quite a lot about Seneli's scrummaging and that was impressive on his opposite Gus Brown.
-
How was that not a penalty for pulling down the maul
-
Seneli certainly pulled that scrum down. Should be a penalty to Napier.

@Stargazer Stream are more dangerous but Napier have a better set piece.
I think the wind is playing a big factor tbh, there certainly isn't much between the two teams from where I'm sitting. They are just different in how they go about things.
Stream should have a lot more territory in the second half.
Meddrick not playing for Stream is a blow, he's probably the best school boy back in Wellington.

@Canes4life The difference I see is that Stream have more power, and therefore leg drive and ability to run over opponents.
Napier players look more skilled all over.
-
There are certainly a few standouts in this game.
I reckon that wind is 10-15 points so I feel Napier will be a little annoyed they haven't got more on the board here.
-
That skill was a bit average from Napier @Stargazer
