The Heartland provinces haven't had a normal season, but have still played quite a few games.
We're now nearing the end of the season, with - as far as I know - only one more game to be played: Poverty Bay v Wanganui. This game is the only Heartland game to be televised this year (Sky Sport 3 from 2.00pm), thanks to it being the curtain raiser to the Ranfurly Shield game between Hawke's Bay and Manawatū.
Wanganui line-up:1 Gabriel Hakaraia, 2 Joe Edwards, 3 Kamipeli Latu, 4 Josh Lane, 5 Matt Ashworth, 6 Campbell Hart, 7 Jamie Hughes, 8 Semi Vodosese, 9 Cameron Davies, 10 Dane Whale, 11 Alekesio Vakarorogo, 12 Timoci Seruwalu, 13 Josaia Bogileka, 14 Vereniki Tikoisolomone, 15 Tyler Rodgers-Holden.
Reserves:
16 Dylan Gallien, 17. Hadlee Hay-Horton, 18. Matthew Brown, 19. Bradley O’Leary, 20. Lindsay Horrocks, 21. Cody Hemi, 22. Dillon Adrole. -

@Stargazer Any idea which of these matches will be granted first-class status by NZRU - or have been?

This was the Poverty Bay squad that played, today. IWL's younger brother in the starting line-up.
I was hoping they'd upload a highlights video on YT because this game was televised, but so far, nothing. Maybe the highlights will first be shown on Mainfreight Rugby.
Anyway, it was a game of two halves. The final score was
:::
Poverty Bay 38 - 41 Wanganui
