Hawkes Bay vs Tasman (RS)

@stargazer E. Enari is not that great as a halfback and if he goes down injured and needs replacing then a makeshift (presumable L. McClutchie) is not going to be that far behind him in performance. At least I hope he is not!
Incidentally Humphrey Shield is on the bench (Trent Hapi is the starter) for the Saracens team that is playing in Porirua tomorrow afternoon. Granddaughter is playing for one of the many Wgtn teams on the No. 2 field up there as well so clearly I will have to give huge amounts of attention to the match being played on the Jerry Collins Field (12.30pm kickoff) if I get up there! Interesting to note Lions squad member Bruce Kauika-Peterson can only make the bench for the home team. -

Think I might have to cheer for the Magpies in this.
Years of whinging about not getting a challenge from those new kids should not go rewarded easily.
Money can't buy happiness but it might buy a shield.Hey, I think he hears you!

@number-10 I don't know why you're so defensive. You sound like you're employed by the HBRU. It was just a vague idea. Not sure whether you understand the meaning of the word "wonder", but it wasn't criticism and it also wasn't a straighforward proposal to sign anyone.
I have the right to feel frustrated, and so is every Magpies' supporter, by the fact that we have no second halfback (let alone a third). We are allowed to question things. If you don't like that, you're at the wrong place. If Enari goes down, we have no adequate replacement so I'm wondering if there isn't someone out ther who could fill the role and who that might be. I never said the HB coaches failed in their duty. Those are your words, not mine.
They are indeed my words and not yours. I didn’t say you said the HB coaches had failed in their duty either. So that makes two of us who never said you had said the HB coaches had failed in their duty, should we start a club up about it?

@machpants eh I didn't see it. Disappointed that he's going.
You're not alone, what does he bring to our loose forwards already picked apart from the biff (only applies if we play ladies)?
