I expect Papakura will be back and one of Waiuku, Te Kauwhata or Onewhero will be the eighth team.

Well Mike without knowing anything on the clubs I would have to plump for Waiuku, as it where my wakapapa is from! Believe there is a road up there with our surname even.

Weymouth ended up going into the top grade, jumping two grades. Waiuku have gone up one grade and added a reserves side. Like my hometown club Onewhero, they suffered after Covid.
