@JK yep, seen comments on SM through the year talking down the NH comp and how far behind the Auckland one they were, so great to see them get up, had a very good year.
I cant recall off the top of my head, but they are unbeaten this year so far?

@taniwharugby What's SM?
I know they were unbeaten in the NH comp but not sure re any exchanges / traditional fixtures etc.
So vs Napier Boys on Friday and looks like its down in Palmy

In the NH comp yes, not in other games. Of their preseason games, traditionals or exchanges, Westlake Boys lost to Kelston Boys (0 - 5), Hamilton Boys (5-29), Dilworth School (don't know the score), to Tauranga Boys (22-26) and they beat New Plymouth Boys (10 - 6). Their game against Hastings Boys was cancelled.

Result:
Blues Girls' Final (Blues Girls' Top 4 qualifier)
Auckland Girls' Grammar 27 - 15 Westlake GHSI watched some of that game and Westlake Girls' were leading 15 - 0 at half time. The second half was messy with AGGS collecting two yellow cards and a red, and Westlake one yellow. Couldn't see what for except that one yellow was for a high tackle.
