2021 School rugby
-
My old School, Onewhero Area School made the top four which is a great achievement for a smaller school. It looks like they defaulted the last few games, they must have had injuries. Pukekohe High School is the big dog out of the schools that play in Counties. For some grades, teams play in the Auckland competitions.

Hastings Boys’ High’s scrumhalf, Jordi Viljoen, son of former Springbok scrumhalf, Roelof “Joggie” Viljoen, has been included in the New Zealand Schools’ side for 2021. Roelof has toured with the Springboks to Argentina, France, and Wales in 1996. He hasn’t played any tests but he did represent the South African Schools’ side back in 1993 and 1994. In his career, he also represented Northland (2000) and Manawatu (2007-08). Roelof’s father Joggie Viljoen represented the Springboks in six tests in which he scored two tries between 1971 and 1972. He toured Australia with the Springboks in 1971. Another player named in the New Zealand Schools’ side with a famous father is Payton Spencer – the son of former All Black flyhalf Carlos Spencer. Spencer jr. is a product of Hamilton Boys’ High who managed to defend their title as champions of the Super 8 Schools.

@oompb In that squad, Sean Ralph also has SA heritage.
We are still waiting for the first AB with SA ancestry that has come through the grades in NZ. The likes of Rawlinson arrived here as an adult.
Yeah, the chickenrunners to NZ have been disappointing, I'd have expected a through the grades AB by now.

Wellington Premiership (Boys 1st XV)
Final
Scots College 36 - 36 St Pat's SilverstreamI watched most of this game. It wasn't so much a game of two halves, but a game of three periods. St Pat's had an early 19-0 advantage and then Scots came back to take a handy lead themselves, only for St Pat's to score 2 late tries. A conversion after 70 mins tied it up so they share the title.
