COME ON SOUTHLAND!
I don't think for a second they can win but that Otago performance against BoP last weekend was nearly as dire as Southland even though they were only playing Northland.

Do you know if that is the same team as last week?
-
@Hooroo Two changes. The starting left wing wasn't playing last week, and reserve hooker.
-
I reckon the Shield might be moving. Looks close...
-
Yeah im keen for it to be shared around this year.
Southland for a week....North Harbour for a week or two. Waikato for a week.
Magpies to look after it for the rest of the year.

#Me too.
Let's see if the consistently worst team in the competition can win it and then maybe the NZRU can turn up and explain quite what supremacy the Shield represents.

@Magpie_in_aus upvoted until I read the last line.

I’m not sure of the rules, is your invitational XV eligible to challenge for the shield?
-
Up Southland.
-
Bloody hell she's an even game. 10-3 Otago after 35 mins. Big battle.
-
Costly turnover penalty from the Stags..
-
Great game, great team. Come on blue!
-
This team of Otago midgets makes Lentjes look like a monster.
-
How does a South African look exactly like he came from the Manawatu.
This is turned into a game of touch.
-
@Nepia with what... 2 missed tackles?
-
Well and truly over now..feel for the Stags..can’t fault the effort, but you have got to make your tackles when have not got the ball..just not enough quality in such small Union

In 2 minutes!
We can’t slightly exaggerate on the fern anymore?
-
Where is Selby-Rickitt ? Injured ?
-
@cgrant Yeah I asked on Facebook and the Southland Rugby page actually replied to my comment (take note Waikato) and said that he is injured for the season.
-
Thanks for your answer. Poor guy, this may hamper his chances of winning a call for the next SR season for which he has been conditioning all year long.
