Hamilton BHS 40 - 7 Rotorua BHS

Played in wet conditions. The game was close in the 1st half until just before HT. Hamilton BHS had a few players out, including the captain who had his jaw broken from a cheap-shot punch by a PNBHS player last Sat. I was told he was stood down for a game, which seems very lenient.

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae A punch with such conseqences should be a ban for the rest of the Super 8 season, but obviously, we don't know the full circumstances.

Great for the CNI that Wesley got up. WCS also have to travel to play St Paul's and Feilding.

St Kents beating Sacred Heart is somewhat of a surprise.

@Stargazer why did Rathkeale college join C NI with lots of travel instead of Wellington Premiership like wairarapa college did

[Stargazer]

@Winger No idea.

Wellington Premiership
Round 6
Rongotai College 12 - 28 St Pat's Silverstream - 12.00pm

A fine entertaining game of footy playing in glorious sunshine but on a slightly slippery surface. The first half was all St. Pats (00 - 21 at the break) but Rongotai fought back strongly and held the upper hand in the second half (only a full time converted try blew the score out a bit). Rongotai, spurred on by an encouraging cheer squad, certainly held the upper hand in the second half and on reflection the score probably was not an overall indication of the total state of play. The Rongotai fullback was an excitement machine using plenty of polynesian flair in a lot of incisive runs interspersed with occasional mishaps and a couple of cases of dropsies! He also got rag dolled a couple of time too (but I might have got those confused with the similar statured first five).
St Pats scored a glorious first half to what I thought was their full back who ran it in from at least fifty yards using long strides that made him look like he was running slowly (he most certainly was not) right on the halftime break which in the end tipped the balance in favour of St. Pats come the end of the game.
Overall it was well worth having a slight mix up in my schedule that somehow found myself with the time to scoot along to watch and enjoy the match!

@Stargazer I doubt those postponed Super 8 games will be played unless they are re-scheduled for the school holidays (unlikely) or played mid-week.

The Super 8 final is on August 5, a week after the last round of games, and the Chiefs Cup starts the following Sat.

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae I wouldn't be surprised at all if they were played in the school holidays (either on 8 or 15 July).

[Bovidae]

Rotorua BHS are touring Argentina in the July school holidays.

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae Yeah, I guess it depends on when they return after their last game in Argentina (on 10 July) and how tired they are. Their next scheduled Super 8 game is on 22 July.

[Higgins]

@stargazer Has the weather been so bad since I departed Napier (temporarily) earlier this week to render the grounds unplayable for the two Super 8 games?

[Stargazer]

@Higgins Yes, it has been quite bad.

[Bovidae]

I went to watch the CNI match between St Peter's Cambridge and St John's Hamilton. St Peter's played with a strong wind behind them in the 1st half but only scored a solitary try, while St John's scored twice, the second right on HT. The 2nd half was dominated by St John's who used the wind well, so played at the right end of the field, and used their lineout drive.

St Peter's 17 - 40 St John's (HT: 10-12)
