2022 School rugby

[Bovidae]

@Winger No. St Peter's have been regular finalists/winners of the CNI but don't appear to have a strong team this year. I think FA is an assistant coach, not the head coach.

[Bovidae]

I've just had it confirmed that the Waikato Chiefs Top 4 qualifier will be played tomorrow:

Hamilton BHS v St John's Hamilton - 12 pm

Maybe New Plymouth BHS is playing FDMC too to decide the Taranaki winner.

[Stargazer]

@Bovidae I've added HamBHS v StJ. I've seen nothing that suggests that NPBHS plays FDMC, this weekend. NPBHS's schedule mentions a Chiefs' play-off match against Pukekohe HS on the 27th.

[Bovidae]

@Stargazer Yeah, Pukekohe HS somehow beat Wesley in the CM playoff game. Manurewa would be stronger than Pukekohe - strange they didn't get a game. NPBHS and FDMC would have played each other earlier in the season, so they probably just used that result.

This is Hamilton BHS's last home game so that must mean that the Waikato winner plays BOP away next Sat.

Up the Lake!!

[Bovidae]

Hamilton BHS 31 - 12 St John's Hamilton

[Bovidae]

To put into context where Pukekohe HS is within the Chiefs region, they played Matamata College today in the Waikato 1st Division final. Matamata won 24-17.

[trooa]

St Peters 21-16 De La Salle. Kelston 20-16 Sacred Heart 1A Semis.
Big upset in BOP Top4 qualifier, Tauranga beat Rotorua 22-11.

[Bovidae]

@trooa So TBC has the Moascar Cup now?

Hamilton BHS at Tauranga next week then.

[trooa]

@Bovidae Yupp they do. When do they play the Counties/Taranaki qualifiers?

[Bovidae]

@trooa As @Stargazer wrote above New Plymouth BHS plays Pukekohe HS next Sat. The winners of both SFs would play the following Sat to decide the Chiefs Top 4 rep.

@JK they been the best in that comp all year

Damn, the Super 8 teams have been all over the place this year when playing each other. Good for the competition I guess.

Yeah we have but gotta say I was a wee bit worried by that manurewa comeback early in the second half.

Was a good game!

[Bovidae]

John McGlashan College would be a good chance to be the SI Top 4 school. They are undefeated this season.

[mikedogz]

Best of the rest in the Counties comp

Semi Finals
Tuakau / OAS 27 vs 24 Alfriston College: 1st XV
HPC 1st XV 20 vs 8 Waiuku College: 1st XV

The Final will be Tuakau College/Onewhero Area School combined Vs Hauraki Plains College

Onewhero is my old school. Hauraki are actually a Thames Valley school and they annoyed their home union when they came over to the Counties Comp. Some of their kids would be living in the Counties region.

Matamata and St Peters Cambridge play in a Co-ed Final this Saturday.

Matamata will fancy an upset in this game, especially if they are at home.
