Farah Palmer Cup 2022

Pretty much expecting a SI double here. Hopefully Auckland make a match of it but that Canterbury team wins the BF count and add in the milestone element (especially the 100 for Elmo) and I can't see them losing.
Otago have continued playing well despite losing Maia Joseph (knee injury) and should do the Championship in a canter. -

Great Championship Final thus far. I think quite a few people will be surprised to see the 17 all half time score!
More surprised that they are playing in Balclutha!
Not a great choice of ground when your team is based on playing fast sharp rugby. This stodgy pitch is a bit amateur with much thicker pasture than FBS -
This article explains why the game is in Balclutha.
FB Stadium’s final loss is Balclutha’s gain
No-one is owning up to dropping the ball. But the ball definitely got fumbled — otherwise, the Otago Spirit would be hosting the Farah Palmer Cup...

Talk about a one team competition.
This Auckland side looks rubbish.
And then they score haha 10-7. They're definitely not physical enough tho
