North Harbour vs Northland
-
Good forward pack. Sione Teu played eight and six for Otago, so should be covering positions off the bench. 17 though 18 should be good value, but no idea about the 20 yo Tolai. How'd he go for Northcote?
Midfield is the big question mark. Groundwater was good last year, but Matt Vaega was a big loss. Anyone know what Dargaville is like at centre?
Am interested in how Hapakuki Moala-Liava'a (2016 NZ U20) dges this year. Has the size, but probably needs to increase his skill level and work rate to play 8 at super rugby level.

@jk very strong side bar your mid-field really
Interesting combo for NH. Dargaville is normally a winger for the Brumbies and Groundwater seems to be rated by the Blues

@tim Luteru Tolai was a back rower at school so obviously they've transformed him into a front rower now. He had a decent skillset but probably lacked the height to play as a 6/8 so it will be interesting to see how he goes at hooker.

@african-monkey I see he was in the Blues U20 team this year, and Harbour U19 last year.

Any live scoring? Nothing on NZ Herald or Stuff. Mitre 10 Cup official site doesn't work.
