@Kiwiwomble just another shitty moment in that game from my team. No way should he have had the ball ripped by Nareki!
That said, was a good play by Nareki, given he knew that was a better way of stopping him rather than trying to tackle him.

Good spotting. TJ will be flown down for the commentary. Hames can double as the sideline commentator too.

They are really inconsistent
If they say anything at all it will be on the offical website: https://www.provincial.rugby/news/year

Stuff understands lock Manaaki Selby-Rickit has been a key target with Bay of Plenty making a play at luring the Highlanders lock north.
-
jeez that Josh Mckay must have a huge attitude problem if no one thinks they can mold that into a solid SR player
And Freedom has been a great find for us (thanks auckland) he's just a bloody solid finisher, he doesn't seem lightning quick but i wouldn't mind seeing him in a straight sprint test, might be deceptive

@Bovidae Gee this pisses me off..Hopefully Southland can hold on to him ..
McMillan is probably using his Maori coach connection. It's not like BOP are short of locks, but could this also be a way of getting Selby-Rickit to the Chiefs?
-
@Kiwiwomble McKay has been pretty bloody good, it'd be a crime if the didn't get an SR contract. Vahaakolo looks great, there was an article that I read recently that the Otago deal he got was through the Landers so I'd say he deserves an SR contract as well.
-
I wish players could stay with their home provinces, and feel for Southland. I believe a salary cap that is staggered to create a travel equalisation subsidy is the fairest way forward. McKay has huge potential. Can't believe how undervalued he seems to be.
