@mikedogz I went to watch the Waikato-Counties U19 game. That was a strange match as the HT score was only 14-12 after Waikato scored a try on 40 mins. Then CM scored straight after HT to take the lead again. After that, it became the Waisake Salabiau show as most of Waikato's tries were long-range. 10 converted tries in the end, some from out wide.

The Harlequins must have scored a couple of late tries. I was wet enough by that stage. It was good to see Gabe Robinson get a run and the Harlequins scrum completely dominated NH. A pity the rest of the forward effort was so poor (too many breaks directly from rucks). Changes to key positions like halfback really affected the team in the wrong way.
The other U19 result was:
BOP 14 - NH 20

The Chiefs Heartland U20s were meant to play Counties Manukau U19s but it looks like they had a game against the Waikato Colts Divisional XV instead. The Waikato Colts Divisional XV won 67-0. The Chiefs Heartland U20s' opponent this weekend is the Hurricanes Heartland U20s, who lost 65-7 to Wellington U19s in their warm-up game.
