Highlights from Petone's win over OBU on Saturday.
Petone's side featured a raft of current/former Super Rugby and NPC players including Harry Godfrey, Riley Higgins, Ngani Punvai, Losi Filipo, TJ Clarke, Belgium Tuatagaloa and Kaliopasis Uluilakepa. Petone also have Brad Shields, Peter Lakai and Logan Henry in their ranks so pretty stacked if all those players were available at the same time.

A quick scan of Wellington rugby and these are the following Canes players that are playing Club Rugby this week.
Wainuiomata: Peter Umaga-Jensen
Petone: Harry Godfrey, Ngani Punivai
Tawa: Siale LauakiThe Petone backline looks stacked this week with everyone apart from Max Hosking having played NPC or Super level rugby.

There was a stream of this game and Petone with 5 professionals in their backline completely ran away with the game in the second half. Godfrey, Punivai and Clarke were electric. The latter has been in great touch for Wellington over the last couple seasons and could be a great replacement for Moorby at the Canes next year. Godfrey showing why the Canes should be looking at him as their future first five. Reminds me so much of a young Beaudy, his acceleration to the line on attack is something else. He’s got a way higher ceiling than Aiden Morgan.

I heard Te Rapa lost their game in the 80th minute after an intercept. Had a run around at Ngaruawahia at the Prezzies ten a side. On the couch now aching. Old Jimmy from Old boys Tech has come back for another year. The oldest regular active player in NZ club rugby at 81.
-
Huge result in Welly club rugby today, Petone beat Norths 88-14. Future Canes 10 Harry Godfrey at the forefront apparently.
-
Lol a little unfair having so much professional talent in that Petone backline. Riley Higgins with 3 tries playing centre, Punivai with three aswell and Godfrey with 1. Belgium Tuatagaloa (former Wellington, Canterbury NPC/ NZ Sevens) scored four tries.
-
@Canes4life Tuatagaloa also played for Samoa at the 2019 world cup.
Yeah that is a strong backing at that level. One of the Moana wingers Viliame Fine also plays for them when he's available too.
