SF - Wellington vs Shield Snorters
-
A player that won't be in the Wellington side on Saturday is Peter Lakai. Going from Instagram it looks like he broke his arm and is now on the mend.
Will be interesting to see what side Wellington puts out after a pretty brutal QF against the Mooloos.
Nevertheless I hope we get some revenge against these hooligans after they trashed the Shield.

@Canes4life 😆 🤣 😂

It's same team from last week with a new replacement tight head from southland..old school fellah someone Morgan ? Or similar.. apparently good in the scrum we shall see
-
@BerhamporeNinja interesting, Aumua looked like he was training from the Insta photos today, any chance he'll be named on the bench?
Is the prop Morgan Mitchell?
-
@Canes4life asafos on the bench, yeah I think that's him !
-
I Believe they have 6 forwards and 2 utility backs with Dominic Ropeti added to the bench
-
Does anyone have any idea when our Horkes Bay team (using the phonetical spelling) will be named for the Saturday night game please?
EDIT: Goodness how does a question about my provinces team suddenly appear in a thread that does not have anything to do with a game concerning Wellington and a team that I have never heard of?

@Kirwan I don't think a team has ever been punished for damaging the Shield, have they? I mean, the team that took a bath with it, resulting in the wood starting to rot and leading to the old Shield having to be replaced, didn't face any consequences either. And that's just one example.

Nobody has ever split it in half, snorted drugs off it and took pictures celebrating both acts and posted them publically. It's a new low.

@Kirwan There's no proof that they snorted drugs or that it was players snorting drugs and taking pictures. As has been reported, there were several non-players present, including the female who's holding the phone with the pictures. I've seen no pictures of anyone celebrating the Shield breaking.
