@Nepia said in 2023 School Rugby:
@Bovidae Do you know why is the final at TBC? Is it rotated around, as surely Hamilton would be top qualifiers as they won the Super 8 and beat TBC in the round robin?
I asked the same question myself, and no one knew the answer. Hamilton BHS had to go to Tauranga last year for the same game, and played there in the Super 8 RR too.

Wow, that's just weird.

Hurricanes Cup
Semi-finals
Scots College 43 - 35 Feilding HS -> see next post!This final score of the game has been posted on Feilding HS's FB page and this info from the Club Rugby website doesn't appear on their socials:
Scots College are scheduled to meet Palmerston North Boys’ High School in the Hurricanes Boys school final this coming Saturday (scheduled to be played in Palmerston North).
But we understand the result of Scots College’s 42-35 win over Feilding High School on Saturday hasn’t been confirmed yet owing to early injuries to Scots College’s props and possible substitution irregularities. We weren’t there and have sought clarification on this, so it is hoped that when this is made we will be alerted. Update: Still no work on this as of late Monday afternoon.
Feilding posted the below to their social media after the game.

@Bovidae I'm glad they're picking this up. It's frustrating that Sky is so Auckland-centric and can't be bothered to broadcast games from other parts of the country. The best 1st rugby is not played in the Auckland 1st competition. It's spread all over all competitions.
Whakaata Māori's streams may not have the same quality as Sky broadcasts (not by a long shot) and the commentary isn't always great, but at least they're showing us the games. I've really enjoyed watching the Super 8. I honestly hope they'll be showing all boys and girls games. It's only 8 games. If they can't stream them all, then they should drop both games for 3rd place.

@Stargazer Typically they only used one camera and a local commentary team for the Super 8 games, but did have an extra camera for the Super 8 final and an off-site commentary team. I've no idea who that was, as I haven't watched the stream. They should be able to get some knowledgeable commentators (voluntary or paid). Talking to some of their crew it all comes down to the budget for that particular game.
