Kemara Hauiti-Parapara
Aiden Morgan

Good to see Higgins starting again at 2nd 5

Not so good to see KH-P and morgan in the key HB 1st5 positions

@Winger I’m hoping Preston and Clarke get the Shield game against Harbour. Definitely my preferred halves pairing.

Has Preston been dropped? He's missing from the injured list

Is Howling any good?

@Winger I think Preston is probably just taking a rest, he’s played quite a few minutes recently, especially through that storm week.

Sam Howling is okay, still young though and has plenty of developing to do. I saw him play for Poneke against Petone and he was thoroughly outplayed by his opposite but I can't really judge him off one performance considering his team were going backwards.

waikato are struggling to put a team together so chuck the house on welly 13+
dunno what they were doing at training.. but all got head knocks.. cruden, sullivan, quinn, norris all injured.. any suitable u20's.. injured!

[Bovidae]

I was going to say that on current form, Wellington should win this easily. Now...

Biggest game this weekend.

Hope you're right Canes4life and Preston & Clarke are the preferred combo for the big games. I have my doubts though, I think it's Preston and Morgan in the coaches eyes.

A very under-strength Waikato team. By my count there are 5 starters who weren't even in the original squad. Obviously Filipo couldn't find enough backs.

Bump.. there's a lot of match threads this weekend

Wellington with the early penalty goal 3-0

[Duluth]

Make that 10-0

[Stargazer]

You could see that intercept coming from miles away.

What's up with Waikato this year? NPC form varies a lot, due to player turnover and limited preseason time, but they seem to have really fallen away.

[Stargazer]

Great try to Waikato.

Kirifi is down.

[Stargazer]

Roe deserved that try. Best Waikato player on the field.

[Stargazer]

I jinxed him.
