Waikato vs Southland - Ranfurly Shield
-
I am excited about a team that has hopefully actually started to play as one.
But you'll have to tell me about it, because I'm out of TV coverage for the next month.

This is pretty much my only enjoyment of the NPC as I don't care what division we lie in when you play both anyways.
Southland seem to pull it out when playing for the shield so I won't be gobsmacked if we lose and if there is any team I don't mind having the shield, it is Southland. In saying all that, I hope we crush them.

You clearly haven't seen Southland play this season then....

Wonder when the last time Waikato fielded a team containing two players from each of Morrinsville Sport and Hautapu?
Not as long ago as you might think. Hautapu has had heaps of Waikato reps in the last 10 years. MS did have the likes of Leonard, Bradley and Sweeney earlier this decade.
