Huge milestone for Canterbury stalwart Steph Te Ohaere-Fox
Canterbury prop Steph Te Ohaere-Fox will play her 100th game this weekend, becoming just the second player in New Zealand to hit the milestone for one province, behind Auckland’s Fiao’o Faamausili. And fourth overall.
She’s also the first woman to hit the century mark for Canterbury.The front-rower played 24 times for the Black Ferns between 2008 and 2014, played for the Wasps in the UK and was part of the Barbarians side in 2019.
Sunday’s milestone will be a huge moment for her and her whānau, as she gets set to become the first Cantabrian centurion since Andrew Mehrtens.

New big screen on under the new lights for the Northland Kauri!

@taniwharugby The attendance does not look all that great. The kai kart owner must be thankful that at least two (or is it three?) patrons spent money at their place!

A few milestones in that Canterbury - Wellington game:
Kendra Cocksedge playing her 150th first class game; Te Ohaere-Fox playing her 100th for Canterbury and Bremner playing her 50th for Canterbury.
That number of 100th is huge in women's rugby, and represent many years, because women only play 5 - 8 FPC games per year.

Wiki and stats.allblacks.com says 54 games and 49 tests.
Palmer played 35 tests which was second only to Richards when she retired.

Also, I think it was mentioned yesterday, Emma Jensen is still playing for Shield Snorters and she's now on 130 first class games. 43 years old!
43 Black Ferns & 87 provincial.
@Nepia These stats are also wrong. Jensen played 50 matches for the BF (49 tests). NZ Rugby History only has provincial games for Auckland and Shield Snorters, but not Waikato. All blacks stats web page mentions Auckland and Waikato, but not Shield Snorters.
