Dilworth over MAGS is the standout result.

That's HUGE!!

I remember at school the dilworth first and 2nd elevens got their fields mixed up. I was in our schools second and we ended up having a hard thought 1 nil win over their 1st eleven. We'd won every game convincingly til then and expected a walkover. Didnt find out it was their first side until after the game had finished. Meanwhile the dilworth 2nd eleven were getting punished and went down 24 nil

Also Taka grammer roll on 5/5 now following the win over Massey who dont seem much chop this year.

@bovidae MAGS don't seem to be up to much this year.

@african-monkey Quite a fall from being national champs only 2 years ago.

From Tyrone Elkington-MacDonald's instagram:

•2009 NZSS RUGBY REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP• 
If you're a Code head like me , you'll love this. 
Went digging through old photos and archives at home and came across this beauty of booklet - "National Regional Secondary School Rugby Championship"

Featuring 4 teams including:
1. Blues Schools
2. Chiefs Schools
3. Hurricanes Schools
4. South Island Schools

The tournament was held at Auckland Grammar and was taken out won by the Hurricanes Schools in the final over the Chiefs Schools.

The level of talent at this tournament as you can see is unbelievable. 
I have worked out roughly 58% of the players at the tournament played Mitre 10, about 1/3 of the players have played Super Rugby and 12 players have pulled on the Black jersey.

Below are some names that will be easily recognised:

BLUES SCHOOLS - Steven Luatua, Bryn Hall, Gareth Anscombe, Francis Saili and Ofa Tuungafasi

CHIEFS SCHOOLS - Nepo Laulala, Sam Cane and Charles Piutau

HURRICANES SCHOOLS - Codie Taylor, TJ Perenara, Lima Sopoaga, Brad Weber and Beauden Barrett.

SOUTHERN SCHOOLS - Brodie Rettalick and Marty McKenzie --------------- 

TOTAL PLAYERS - 92
Mitre 10 - 53 (58%)
Super - 30 (33%)
All Blacks - 12 (13%) BLUES SCHOOLS
Mitre 10 - 13
Super - 9
All Blacks - 3

CHIEFS SCHOOLS
Mitre 10 - 9
Super - 4
All Blacks - 3

CANES SCHOOLS
Mitre 10 - 19
Super - 13
All Blacks - 5

SOUTHERN SCHOOLS
Mitre 10 - 12
Super - 4
All Blacks - 1

@stargazer It's a pity that Godie Taylor and Ben Tameifunai never kicked on at senior level.

@stockcar86 Didn't see you posting these pics the last two years.

Seriously needed an unlike button in the latest update.

[Bovidae]

The Super 8 seems to be more competitive this year, which is a good thing. PNBHS seems stronger (their game with Hamilton was very close) and Napier has started with 2 wins. I'll see them play in Hamilton in 2 weeks time.

A mate and I went over to Rotovegas to watch the Super 8 game between Rotorua BHS and Hamilton BHS. Hamilton had a handy lead with 15 mins to go but Rotorua scored 2 late converted tries to their fullback (Ravutaumada?). He's very quick.

@bovidae Next week's Super 8 will be interesting, with Hamilton v Napier, both still unbeaten. The television game is Rotorua v Hastings, both with one loss, but Rotorua looks the better team.
