Championship Semi: Otago v Northland
-
@taniwharugby depth is everything in this competition..when you think about it ..we have no training facility in terms of a high performance centre , no academy and no money , 13th on the table in terms of player budget..but we are in the final ..
I know many of those previously mentioned areas will be addressed over the next few years , and then and only then will it feel like we sitting at the table on level terms ..
I am predicting some exciting times ahead , but only if these are followed through , already hearing about a high profile back expressing interest in moving to Northland ..will keep this one under my hat, I have a family contact on this one .. -
@Steven-Harris yea the new HP centre on track to be open mid 2021, hopefully that helps keep and attract talent...I expect making a final helps that cause too.

@Steven-Harris yeah most of our props are the weak links in our pack, in that thier fitness leaves alot to be desired which affects thier decision making and execution (penalties, defensive lapses, hands)
A problem endemic to NZ rugby at the moment.
