            Finally, some positive results:

            The Hawke's Bay Tuis narrowly lost one of their 40 minute games to BOP 10-12, but won the other against Manawatu 21-20.

            Hawke's Bay Samoa had a big win against Bay of Plenty Samoa: 58-12

            Haven't seen the Saracens and U19 results yet.

                        Looking at our U19s results, that doesn't bode well for the next crop of Bay players.
                        I guess next year, all those Hastings BHS 1stXV players - who are playing so well this year - will come through (if still in the Bay).

                        Anyway, I just started a Jock Hobbs Memorial U19 thread, which has the info on their upcoming tournament games.

                            Jacob Devery

                            HALFBACKS
                            Bronson Hokianga
                            Jack White

                            FIRST FIVE-EIGHTHS
                            Raniera Peterson

                            MIDFIELD BACKS
                            Felise Iopu-Tavae
                            Mitchell Drew
                            Nathan Burton

                            OUTSIDE BACKS
                            Al Momoisea
                            Sam Lewis
                            Isaac Thomas

                            Really strange to see Farrell and Rakete-Stones on that list. I started wondering whether they published last year's list. Both props turned 20 in June, how can they play in an U19 tournament?

                            And what impact is this going to have on the Magpies? We already have so many injuries.

                            The official tournament programme (pdf) says on page 5:

                            Each squad is made up of 25 players who are under 19 as at 1 January 2017.
                            

                            Edit: I think the DOB of Farrell on the Magpies website is wrong. According to his NZU20s profile on the All Blacks website he turned 19 in June. But that still doesn't explain how Rakete-Stones can be on that list. He was 19 on 1 January 2017, not under 19.

                                The U19s have just lost their semi-final to Counties Manukau. Full time score: 20-3 (HT: 8-3)
                                So again playing for 11th place. The team finished 12th both in 2015 and 2016.
                                They'll play either the NZ Heartland U19s or Southland U19s.

                                This was today's line-up:

                                  The first of two losses to Counties in a week probably 😞

                                    @Stockcar86 Yes, that's what I thought as well. Also wondering whether the non-selection of Farrell means that he's still injured, or that he's been called up for Magpies duties to replace Mark Braidwood.

                                      The U19s just beat Heartland U19s to finish 11th. That's one place better than the previous 2 years. Next year, some of this year's Hastings BHS 1st XV should be available for this team, unless they move out of the province like Naholo and Mua. Surely, they should be able to do better than 11th?

                                      The final score was 26 to 16. Tries: Angus McKnight, Al Momoisea, Nathan Burton, Isaac Thomas; con Isaac Thomas 3x

                                      Hard to judge players based on one game only, but I liked the look of Momoisea, Burton and the two locks. The halfback (Hokianga) looked quite handy, too. The replacement no. 8, Ulupano, is a giant. Ian Jones said in his commentary that even he felt small next to him. He didn't get much game time, but I saw him make some impressive fends. Got strong legs, too. Some handling errors, too, though.

                                        Some more good news
                                        Wellington Maori 30 - 43 Hawkes Bay Saracens played at Porirua Park early this afternoon
                                        Chainsaw was there in fine form so there should be a good selection of his action photos available sometime later today. I had to help a friend watch her son play for the Wellington Under 18s (he went good too) on an adjacent field so only really saw about two thirds of the second half with full concentration.

                                        The scoreboard was not operating but general consensus was that Wellington Maori was in front by a few when I started watching. I must have brought something with me as the Saracens looked pretty comfortable most of the time I was scrutinizing affairs. They looked to be playing at a faster pace than Wellington Maori could match, perhaps it was superior fitness kicking in? I did not have a team sheet with me but the HB fullback called Tom something looked to be a class above the opposition defenders twinkle toeing his was through a couple of times as well as using his speed to create huge problems for the home side defence, a couple of tries resulting from his thrusts. Tom later moved into centre where he was not quite so prominent. He earned himself a nice big tick next to his name in my book with two beautiful tackles where he twice bundled far bigger players into touch right on our goal line saving almost certain tries.

                                        So far all in all a good start to the day (the 'Poos win excepted), hopefully it continues onto Albany tonight.
                                        Ohhh, there was one thing that did not endear itself to me, one of the HB players got rucked beautifully when he failed to move out of the opposition side right on our goal line and proceeded to squeal to the referee. Take you punishment like everyone had to in the good old days and certainly do not let the opposition know it hurt you.

                                          @Higgins Great to hear. They must top the table then, because Wellington Maori was sitting first with only one point more than the Saracens.

                                            @Higgins said in 2017 HB Representative Rugby:

                                            Some more good news
                                            Wellington Maori 30 - 43 Hawkes Bay Saracens played at Porirua Park early this afternoon
                                            Chainsaw was there in fine form so there should be a good selection of his action photos available sometime later today. I had to help a friend watch her son play for the Wellington Under 18s (he went good too) on an adjacent field so only really saw about two thirds of the second half with full concentration.

                                            The scoreboard was not operating but general consensus was that Wellington Maori was in front by a few when I started watching. I must have brought something with me as the Saracens looked pretty comfortable most of the time I was scrutinizing affairs. They looked to be playing at a faster pace than Wellington Maori could match, perhaps it was superior fitness kicking in? I did not have a team sheet with me but the HB fullback called Tom something looked to be a class above the opposition defenders twinkle toeing his was through a couple of times as well as using his speed to create huge problems for the home side defence, a couple of tries resulting from his thrusts. Tom later moved into centre where he was not quite so prominent. He earned himself a nice big tick next to his name in my book with two beautiful tackles where he twice bundled far bigger players into touch right on our goal line saving almost certain tries.

                                            So far all in all a good start to the day (the 'Poos win excepted), hopefully it continues onto Albany tonight.
                                            Ohhh, there was one thing that did not endear itself to me, one of the HB players got rucked beautifully when he failed to move out of the opposition side right on our goal line and proceeded to squeal to the referee. Take you punishment like everyone had to in the good old days and certainly do not let the opposition know it hurt you.

                                            The Tom in question will be Tom Iosefo, who has played sevens for Samoa.

                                                By the way, the last name of one of our U18 girls try scorers is Mikaele-Tu'u. Can't be coincidence!

                                                          @number-10 It's a pity, but not a surprise, considering both teams had already lost to Wellington this season. Wellington always seems to be our stumbling block. But we're again better than Manawatu ...
