Hawke's Bay v Waikato (RS)

[Higgins]

@nepia Matt Cooper, Roger Randle and Hallam Kupa are others that should fall into that category too.

[Yeetyaah]

Uhhhh. Who's Ryan Tongia?

I'm wondering whether wikipedia or the fern has gone nuts. Both, I guess.

Wikipedia seems correct (except for "current team").

See we've even resorted to selecting ex-HB players.

It's not enough that you stole Sullivan, now Tongia. Tongia, dead to me now.

Point of order. We stole him from those filthy Aucklanders.

I wonder if Hamilton Burr's parents are American, or if they knew about Hamilton and Burr when they named him (apologies if this has been discussed on the Fern already, there's likely a good chance I have already discussed with my faulty memory).

Surely he has to be Scottish with that name?

[Daffy Jaffy]

@bovidae Filthy? - there is no point showering every day when we are locked down!

Sorry, I'll correct that to knowingly received stolen goods.

[Yeetyaah]

I just want Ratima to start man. Kinda glad Lansdown isn't playing he's been a bit shit recently, counteracted by Smith still starting. Idk it's hard to see Waikato winning but I'll still back my bois.

[Bovidae]

@Yeetyaah Fullback seems to change every week. Is Waaka heading back to the US soon? I would have put Coombes-Fabling at the back and Tongia on the wing with this selection. No confidence to start Cook-Savage at fullback either.

If you look at the loose forwards Waikato started the season with, only Jacobson is left from the main 4.

[Higgins]

@number10 What's the weather like up home today please? Fridge restocked and all my supporters gear laid out ready to go except the polo shirt which is already being worn. Is it too soon to have a nervous pee?

[Number 10]

@higgins Bit of cloud around, no chance of rain, 16 degrees. Bit of breeze, not strong.

[Number 10]

50th game for Pouri Rakete-Stones.

[Yeetyaah]

Smith not starting, copped an injured ankle. Leuila has taken his spot.

[Nepia]

Magpies score in the corner from a maul drive.

Whaitari (the touchie) hasn't been skipping any meals.

[Yeetyaah]

Probable try butchered by shit handling. Waikato are here.
