A little bit about the rescheduling of M10 Cup games in this article. A NPC curtain raiser in Wellington was suggested. Flights and accommodation will be the main problem.
NZ Rugby is still finalising a reshuffle of cup fixtures and re-booking hotels for those two weekends.

Fletcher Smtih sparking and then keeping the Waikato try alive....really wish we'd kept him
-
@Kiwiwomble from what I heard, he was poised to sign up here (Dale McLeod instrumental in getting him to that point) and then Northland cut McLeod loose, he chose Waikato and Alaimalo went to Ta$man due to Northland not re-signing McLeod too...as rumour has it anyway
-
i guess he really wants to play 10 and we were playing him at 15 with Ioane at 10
-
@Kiwiwomble by all accounts, thats why Alaimalo left Ta$man, wanted to play 15, they had Jordan

@Duluth I know I keep banging on about this but we would have had 3 or 4 AB tests by now in normal times? I haven't missed them this year. I will miss the Ab's leaving the NPC though and it turning back into the dross we have experienced for the past couple of decades
Completely and utterly agree. We'll both be branded as broken records, but who cares.
