Counties First XV Winners Tuakau College - Onewhero combined beat Hauraki Plains College 14 to 10

The first time a team from Onewhero Area School or Tuakau College have won a counties comp for a long time in any grade.

It would be decent grade if Pukekohe, Wesley and Manurewa stayed in Counties.

Manurewa HS beat Hamilton GHS 27-10 so will represent the Chiefs Region at the Girls Top 4.

I suppose this is an upset, but I'm not sure if they played each other earlier in the season to know the relative strength of each team.

Auckland Girls Grammar won the Auckland Girls 1st XV competition, yesterday, beating Mt Albert Grammer Girls' 26 - 12 in the Final.

They'll play Westlake Girls' in the Blues Top 4 qualifier on 5 September.

@Bovidae Manurewa ended up fourth on the table in the Auckland competition, Wesley were the other Counties team. Hamilton were the inaugural Chiefs Manawa winners.

I'd like to point out that I once played for the Manurewa High School 1stXV. Key word being 'once'.

But no CM teams in that Chiefs competition. Manurewa would have played against stronger teams during the season.

Johnnie's up over Nelson College nearing the end of the first half. Really good game so far. Number of familiar names in rhe Johnnie's team. Three sons of All Blacks Muager, Joseph and Timu. While there is a Hore from the Manitoto; and also a Breen and a Whaanga (brother plays for Southland and formerly Otago).

[Bovidae]

Watching the SI final they said that the Top 4 SFs will be:

Blues vs Hurricanes
Chiefs vs SI

Also a typical wet day in New Plymouth for the Chiefs final.

[Bovidae]

Some history made with Westlake BHS and John McGlashan College making the Top 4.

Watched some highlights of the WBHS vs Kelston game. Very close game all the way through. Huge result for Westlake

[taniwharugby]

@JK yep, seen comments on SM through the year talking down the NH comp and how far behind the Auckland one they were, so great to see them get up, had a very good year.

I cant recall off the top of my head, but they are unbeaten this year so far?

[JK]

@taniwharugby What's SM?

I know they were unbeaten in the NH comp but not sure re any exchanges / traditional fixtures etc.

So vs Napier Boys on Friday and looks like its down in Palmy
