u19
Counties Beat Taranaki 19 to 7

The Harlequins must have scored a couple of late tries. I was wet enough by that stage. It was good to see Gabe Robinson get a run and the Harlequins scrum completely dominated NH. A pity the rest of the forward effort was so poor (too many breaks directly from rucks). Changes to key positions like halfback really affected the team in the wrong way.

The other U19 result was:

BOP 14 - NH 20

The Chiefs Heartland U20s were meant to play Counties Manukau U19s but it looks like they had a game against the Waikato Colts Divisional XV instead. The Waikato Colts Divisional XV won 67-0. The Chiefs Heartland U20s' opponent this weekend is the Hurricanes Heartland U20s, who lost 65-7 to Wellington U19s in their warm-up game.

Oli Mathis is back playing for the Waikato U19s (vs NH U19s) in the curtain-raiser to the NPC match.

The Northern Regional 7’s Tournament is being played in Morrinsville this Saturday. Kick-off at 10 AM, with finals from 2 PM.

[Bovidae]

No Auckland or BOP teams - strange.

Looking at the Waikato Mens team that has been named there are some notable players missing, which may suggest they are part of the NZ squad.

[mikedogz]

When was the last time there was a national provincial sevens tournament?

[Bovidae]

2019. 2020 was cancelled due to covid, and now it is regional.

[mikedogz]

This is where Auckland and BOP are.
