Apparently, the Saracens are absolutely destroying Wellington Māori.
HT: 43-8

[Stargazer]

Full time: Saracens 96-15 Wellington Māori.

Disappointing, so close to 100. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth:

Superb effort, shame another try could not have been scored. I have also heard a strong whisper that the Tui turned over the Wellington Lionesses (or whatever they are called) by a couple of points. still to be confirmed mind you.

[Stargazer]

@higgins Yep, just saw it on FB. The Tuis have beaten Wellington Pride 25-22. That's awesome.

[Higgins]

That's good to hear. I will certainly have an extra spring in my step at my club's prizegiving here tonight after to such notable victories over Wellington outfits.

[Stargazer]

And another win! Our U19s have beaten the Hurricanes Heartland U20s 55 to 24.

From FB:

A good win today for the team against the Hurricanes Heartland Under 20 side - final score 55-24. After a close tussle in the first half, things came together really well in the second stanza, with our guys rattling on 47 points - with both Danny Toala and Lincoln McClutchie in dominant form. Clerk Kopelani had another strong performance in the mid-field, Trei Nepe-Apatu was a work-horse in the loose, and Lee Moleli was strong in the carry and at scrum time.

Points:
Tries - Lincoln McClutchie (2), Nikau McGregor, Danny Toala, Lolani Faleiva, Jack White, Dan Sharplin and Kyle Cornelison

Conversions- Danny Toala (4), Lincoln McClutchie (2)

Penalty - Danny Toala

National Tournament next week - we are in the top 8 for the first time ever at this tournament - so we are mixing it with the big boys! This group of young men are up for the challenge though, and ready to go!!

Hawke's Bay U19 Squad

[Stargazer]

Former Hawke's Bay schoolboys in U19 squads of other provinces (as far as I recognse the names):

U19
Jayden Falcon (Tiaan's little bro and also a 1st 5/8 from Lindisfarne): Manawatu
Josh Bokser (former Napier BHS captain and flanker): Canterbury
Dennon Robinson (Hastings Boys' centre): Bay of Plenty (played for them in seeding games)
Humphrey Sheild (Napier BHS halfback): Ta$man

Former Hawke's Bay schoolboys playing Mitre 10 Cup for other provinces:
Kini Naholo not released by Taranaki?

Not "poached", but playing for the Magpies:
Folau Fakatava
Kianu Kereru-Symes

Whatever happened to Jeriah Mua? Thought he'd gone to BOP, but haven't seen him in any squad for the seeding games. Injured?

Results:

Hawke's Bay Saracens 33 - 25 Wellington Centurions (HT: 5 - 17)
Otago Spirit 31 - 12 Hawke's Bay Tuis (HT: 24 - 0)

[Higgins]

Excellent result, the first one anyway. Any news on the Under 15s yet?

[Stargazer]

@higgins Lost to Hamilton, unfortunately. Can't remember the score. That's assuming you meant Napier BHS U15s.

[Higgins]

Another late dubious penalty by any chance?

[Stargazer]

Holy batshit. This was half an hour ago:

Bay of Plenty lead Hawke's Bay 50 - 0

U19s

WTF!

Lucky we won the big one.

[Number 10]

Final score: 0 - 90.

That must be one hell of a BOP team this year. They had defeated Taranaki 94-0 in the Chiefs comp.
