      Hooker Penisoni Fineanganofo will make his PIC Steelers debut on Sunday when Reon Graham’s side travels to Tauranga to face Bay of Plenty. The Karaka front-rower gets his first opportunity of the NPC season as Graham has been forced into some changes and made some tweaks to his line-up for a...

          Any update on ENS's injury? It looked like a hammy problem which can take a while to recover from.

                BOP can be late putting their teams out but at least they give you the full squad picture with injuries etc.
                I find that their SM is quite good but because they like to spread out the post timings sometimes things get a bit behind.

                    Seems to be a total lack of interest in this game judging by lack of posts in this thread since it started. Still looking at the nice weather the Mafia are probably at the ground.
                    13 - 12 to The Steamers last time I looked in case anyone is remotely interested.

                          TJ needs to step aside at the Canes for Roigard. One of the form players in NPC.

                            Jersey clash isn't ideal.

                                  Hoped to get to this on way back from an event in Hampton Downs. Glad I did not. Hugely uninspiring. Bright point. Is there a better defensive 9 in NZ than Cam Roigard? He made the difference in this one.
                                  BOP spine was horrid in second half. Poor Rangi had a mare. Triple T lost his rhythm and the BOP 10s had none today. Narawa Walton and Broughton tried hard but Counties deserved that. Brash looks interesting.

                                    I have to admit not having the faith to tip CM in this one. BOP have been a bit of a bogey team for us over the years and with no ENS I wasn’t confident.
                                    They aren’t contenders but I do like what this coach and approach of backing locals is doing

                                      I always back Counties for a close win. One game I don't think with my brain.

                                          Is the The Chiefs Country Cup only on the line for home games? I can't remember. CM have already played Waikato and play Taranaki away.

                                            Going by this, it is at away games as well. Counties first time I think.

                                              @mikedogz The reason I ask is that Waikato beat BOP in Tauranga last year but obviously didn't get the Cup. Maybe covid meant it wasn't on the line in 2021.
