Still not able to watch the games.
According to Tribe, it's half time in the Hastings v Lindisfarne game and Hastings Boys is leading 26 - 0. No surprise.

Apparently, they have problems with the website and the games are LIVE and free on Facebook.

Here's the Napier v Palmy game.

Half time: Napier Boys 13 - 5 Palmy Boys

Stargazer

Napier Boys' should play Moleli at 10 instead of fullback. Slabbekoorn isn't good enough for that 10 jersey.

Stargazer

Geez, Nick Ennor is a big lump. Need some strong frontrowers to lift that lad!

Stargazer

Full time scores:

Hastings Boys' 40 - 7 Lindisfarne

Napier Boys' 25 - 5 Palmerston North Boys'

So a Hastings Boys v Napier Boys' Final. Not really a surprise.
I think Napier suffered quite a few injuries in today's game, so wait and see what kind of squad they can field next week.

I hope to re-watch these games during the week, because I missed most of both games.

Poor result from Hastings Boys to allow Lindisfarne to score a try. I hope the coach punishes them at training this week.

@nepia Only the reserves. It happened late in the second half.

It looks like the Hurricanes Cup Final between Hastings Boys' and Napier Boys' will be played at McLean park, this Saturday.

It will be livestreamed by sideline live.

Stargazer

Napier Boys' line-up. The game will be streamed live: https://sideline.live/play/16407 (for free, I think).

Stargazer

Sideline live again having streaming issues, so I missed the first 14 minutes, but it's live now.

It's still 0 - 0.

Stargazer

For several players this will be their last school 1st XV ever.

I assume for Napier that will be, among others, the Leutele Malasia brothers, Afa Moleli and Max Ratcliffe.

For Hastings, Cooper Flanders, Aone Lolofie (?), Mefi Tupou, Hoera Stephenson, Philip Kingi-Panapa, who I think were all in the 2019 champions squad, and possibly Jordi Viljoen (who played for Palmy Boys, last year). Maybe more. Not sure about Kaihau Pasikala.

Stargazer

Since the stream started, all play has been in Hastings' 22. Napier putting on a lot of pressure, but no score yet. Hastings giving away a lot of penalties, and the ref has put the team on a warning.

Stargazer

Short break in the game, with both Gus Brown and Nick Ennor receiving some treatment. Brown limping.

It looks like Pasikala is wearing the 7 jersey and that means he's the player to have a spell in the sin bin.

Stargazer

Wish regular no. 7 James Pese injured, it looks like they've shifted lock Josh Leach to blindside, and Pasikala to openside.
I haven't seen a line-up for Hastings and don't recognise all players, so can't be sure.

Stargazer

Hastings 2nd five is a tall lad, Tali Ioasa. Just made a great turnover. Finally some play in Napier's half.

Stargazer

Deserved first try to a Napier player with a serious mullet. All after a great break from Nick Ennor.
Strange seeing Napier so dominant.
Didn't pay enough attention to who took the kick, but it was a good one.

Napier leading 7 - 0.

Stargazer

That's the half time score.

Stargazer

Napier's try scorer was their centre, Adam Curran. He's having a good game. Just made a great turnover.

Stargazer

Napier very close to scoring their 2nd try. Gilgal Leutele Malasia (8), or was it his brother? and Nick Ennor, very good.

And now again, almost a try to Napier. Held up.

Hastings defence holding, but geez, why are they playing at this side of the field? Something is not quite right.
