Championship Final - Hawke's Bay v Northland
-
From the match preview;
PLAYERS TO WATCH
Tom Robinson – Northland
The man they call ‘Big Red’ has had an impressive provincial season. Last year he was hampered by injury, but this season he’s made every post a winner. He’s made the most tackles in the competition this year with 121, 28 more than Hawke’s Bay’s best Brendon O’Connor with 93. Expect him to make a huge impact on the final alongside fellow flanker Kara Pryor and big lock Sam Caird.
Folau Fakatava – Hawke’s Bay
Folau Fakatava has become more well-known for his beautiful hairstyle in 2020. The dyed blonde set-up at the back, a lockdown experiment, has become his trademark this season. But he’s been a notable force on the field as well. He’s made more try assists (9) than any other player in the Mitre 10 Cup this year and at only 20 years old he’s got a huge future ahead of him. He’s been a key man for the Magpies, and they’ll call upon his skills in Friday’s big dance.

@Snowy Considering the next one on the trophy may be the last, they should double the font size.
Yep, just "fill her up" (so to speak).

Bay of Plenty you didn’t engrave it last season. What do you reckon Northland who ever wins misses them out? 😂
further proof no one cares about the second division

Poor old BoP - all they could afford was to write it on in pencil?
Send it to me next week and I will pay and arrange for it to be engraved for 2019.
"Steve" Hanson has offered to contribute.

Baker thinks hes back playing sevens (I wish he was) with the quick throw in with half the Northland team there already.

Haha Luatangi Li loves scring tries at McLean park. He got 2 there in the shield clash iirc.
