@FakatavaAllBlack was impressed by Withy and Holland for Otago.
Didn't watch the game, but they are two of a decent number of youngsters looking the goods at NPC level this year. Great to see.

Just watching the game now. I've seen Jermaine Ainsley's name mentioned on here for higher honours, but he's been absolutely murdered at scrum time by Hodgman.
Otago's handling in the first half was terrible. Could have really troubled Auckland with more accuracy in their attack.

Was coming into thread to say exactly that about Holland Kiwi, I have been watching hin for a while liking what he does, and although only saw first half hour of this game yesterday, he impressed the hell out of me. For a 19-20yo kid he even got a great build for a lock to go with his height. But his workrate really impresses me, he works well in mauls as well as lifting, jumping in lineouts . Looks a pretty complete package for a kid! And to top it off he caught AJ Lam from behind after he made a break.
