NPC - news, injuries etc

@Bovidae Just son of a Waikato All Black. Mixed up Greg Dyer with George Dyer I think

[Bovidae]

@ARHS I didn't include Selby-Rickit.

George Dyer should be in the Waikato squad.

Ta$man squad to play Canterbury in Hanmer Springs below. Surprised to see Isi Tu'ungafasi in that squad; didn't someone on the Fern say he'd play for Canterbury?

Can't wait for that CRFU Facebook page live feed. It's awesome how you can't cast it despite the chrome cast symbol being on the screen, and the subtitled commentary is a real treat too.

Even better....

DELAYED MATCH COVERAGE! Canterbury Rugby 🐑 have advised that due to poor Wifi at Hanmer Springs they will now be recording the match v the 🦈 and will show the match at 7.05pm tomorrow on their Facebook page. They say "Sorry", you say "_ _ _ _ _ _".

Mako Facebook page also says the defending champions will name their squad on Saturday.

Manawatū Turbos 2020:

Captain: Jamie Booth

I assume Ben Strang is the young hooker out of Whanganui Collegiate, who was the NZS no.2 last year.

Sounds like there might be some U19 games.

Is this going to be a breakout season for Ere Enari? He was bloody good for the NZ U20s, but hasn't done much since then.

A lot of attacking players going straight to deck when hitting rucks. Could blow a penalty at most rucks.

[Tim]

Any word on a live stream for the HB/Auck game?

[Stargazer]

@Tim No, not yet.

[Bovidae]

Looking at the stream of the Waikato-Taranaki game Waaka is at fullback. Loosies are Jacobson (x2) and Parker. Finau and Thomson at lock.

From what I can make out:

Cobb, Taukei'aho, Iosefa-Scott, Thomson, Finau, L Jacobson, M Jacobson, Parker
Roe, Reihana, Osborne, Rogers (?), Tupaea, Wrampling, Waaka

7-0 to Waikato but just pushed off their own feed at scrum.

[African Monkey]

@Tim He needs to leave the Crusaders.
