I found this interesting mainly because I grew up in the district nearby, know people related to people involved and worked with my Dad on a farm I believe was part of land owned by key people.

I just saw that a Boy from my old school, Onewhero Area School in the Wop Wops of the Counties province is attending the Chiefs Under 17's camp. He will get approached for a scholarship no doubt. Any decent player from there has moved to Wesley.

first time I have seen this : Wheelchair boxing.

A great Counties team. It should have had more All Blacks, only had 2 with Jonah the only regular. All time greats in that Counties team. A great crowd on the embankment. I was there with Family on the grass bank on the Grandstand side.
