    You'd think Friday night will impact the Harbour crowd.

    Saturday night is Auckland is Womens RWC triple header and opening.
    That would impact more.

    So the graphic I have just seen on Breakdown was wrong? Waikato-BOP was at 4:30 pm on Sat.

    Looks likes NZR might have found someone with a brain. That draw carefully dances around the Women's RWC.

    Sky could have been cynical and not bothered if there was a clash. I'm sure NZR wouldn't have been happy though.

    The QFs have worked out well as there are three derbies, including a big grudge match in Wellington.

    Agree. And either team could take these 3 matches. Hopefully a decent crowd turn up for at least some of these games

    The Waikato and Bay odds should be closer.

    For those confused about the playoff format, this is from the official website:

    Four Quarter-Finals will take place between teams:
    QF1: Odds 1 plays Odds 4 (Wellington v Hawke's Bay)
    QF2: Odds 2 plays Odds 3 (Waikato v BOP)
    QF3: Evens 1 plays Evens 4 (Canterbury v Northland)
    QF4: Evens 2 plays Evens 3 (North Harbour v Auckland)

    Two Semi-Finals will take place between winners of QF 1 and QF 4; and winners of QF 2 and QF 3.
    Matches to be played at the home venue of the Premier Competition Union with the higher finals ranking.

    This odds and evens makes no sense to me. I get it is because we have a 14 team competition and not everyone plays each other, but it still seems so redundant.
