When I was a kid this was the big match. Two of the top NPC sides and also 'my team' vs my dads.
Rellies all lived in Palmy and often the game would be a school holiday one when I would be staying down there with grandparents.
Good memories.

This time around? I am quite confident although the Poo can turn it on at times so a little nervous on it.

1:30 in Counties try. Manawatu Halfback knocked on when doing a box kick from ruck after kick receipt. 8,9, 11 play by Counties from the scrum.

Is Cameron still with the saders? He could be a good option for the landers ..

Bugger, him at 10 with Hunt at 15 would be much preferred to Hunt at 10. He even gets more than 10m on his kicks!

[Bones]

Luuuuuvly try to CM.

[mikedogz]

Jared Page playing better as a Fullback compared to Wing.

[Steven Harris]

@Bones I also know there’s some interest around Rivez Reihana from Northland as I am unaware if he is locked in with the Chiefs .

[Steven Harris]

@mikedogz he’s got a good skill set and pace to match

[Bones]

And another cracker!

I remember these days. Counties won in 1979 and Manawatu in 1980, Wellington won in 1978 and 1981

Jared Paige an Penasi Malimali showing some real strength and talent. Despite the YC Slade has been a real nuisance for the Turbos in the tight.

Counties had a front row of Ketel, Dalton and Spiers. Manawatu had Gary “Axle” Knight.

I like the Fijian winger Malimali
