Farah Palmer Cup 2021

@bovidae And Shield Snorters have lost another good player to Otago again. Otago usually benefit from having an university. As female players don't get paid a cent, not sure why players move from Otago to Canterbury (other than for work/uni), unless the upcoming SR competition is already pulling them to Christchurch.

@stargazer I recognise one of those names very well. Bad enough possibly having a whangai in the Lions (neither confirming nor denying) until this year and now this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God I hope her father does not expect me to forgo watching any Shield Snorters matches that might happen to be on at the same time.

I had noticed before that NP East Coast now have a women's team. They play Ta$man Mako women today, in a preseason game for the Mako.
Just wondering whether anyone has heard of Southland still aiming for joining the FPC? If not, is NPEC going to join instead? I have no idea whether other Heartland provinces have women's rep teams and whether they play FPC teams occasionally ...
Is this the start for a future Heartland comp?? Or have I just missed that Heartland provinces have had women's rep teams for ages?
Questions, questions ...

AKAIK Southland aren't in a strong enough position to field a team yet. Their womens comp is still pretty new and numbers still growing.
Wakatipu women play in the Southland comp but it is Otago that are doing development on promising players. -
