@Canes4life why am I not surprised to see Harry Plummer considered an inside back in Auckland, but a lock in Wellington.

[Canes4life]

@Bones probably because the average locking height in Wellington is 1.8m

Do you need tall locks when you have Ardie?

Is that to scale ?

Never realised Nonu was a hobbit, then again he is standing right next to Ardie

[Canes4life]

@MN5 this image suggests Nonu is 2 metres tall.

Carters first touch was a sweet cut out pass but his outside backs stuffed up a 2-1 opportunity.

Oof...Petone might wanna rethink having two teams in the same grade. Some wallopings in prems too.

For anyone interested there are a few good podcasts with various Club, NPC and Super Rugby players via the Huddy Sports YouTube channel.

@Stargazer there is a good interview in there with Hugh Renton that you might want to post on the HB page.

Cheers for this @canefan - was always wondering if he left the Magpies or they ditched him, and it turns out they ditched him.

I thought there might be a few Chiefs squadies playing club rugby this weekend. Only Sullivan is listed to be playing in the Waikato competition, so maybe others are playing for their home province clubs.

Rats.

Not cool.

@Gunner Agreed. Like to see Administrator’s take some action. Pull the teams from the competition. Fine the clubs. This stuff wouldn’t happen if the culture didn’t allow it to happen.

Dylan Nel is playing no.8 for Morrinsville Sports. His opposite for Hautapu will be Simon Parker.

No Bailyn Sullivan this week though.
