I arrived to see most of the 2nd half of the Waikato-Northland U19 game as the kickoff time was moved forward. I was told that Northland led at HT, and would have had the wind behind them. Northland had their moments on attack in the 2nd half but didn't covert into points. Waikato ran away with the game in the end. There was no scoreboard but it was something like 43-10.

@Bovidae saw we picked up a YC in the 2nd half too, wont have helped if they were under the pump.

For collapsing a maul on the goal line. PT and YC.

A great sunny day at Cambridge for the Waikato U18s vs Auckland Gulls (their B team) game. Waikato won 41-24 (HT: 17-7). A couple of late tries to Auckland made the scoreline closer than it was for much of the match. What I find interesting is that some of the players selected for the NZ Schools squad aren't even in the Waikato U18 squad. Auckland certainly has plenty of depth at this level.
