Three key players will be missing from the Hastings Rugby and Sports team when Hawke's Bay's premier club rugby competition begins next weekend. Hawke's Bay Magpies prop Josiah Tavita-Metcalfe, experienced flanker Fale Matamata and blockbusting centre Timo Vaiusu all left the field with concussion during Hastings Rugby and Sports 28-3 loss to Marist St Pats of Wellington in their first match at the New Zealand Marist Spillane Cup tournament in New Plymouth on Saturday. "They were all pretty bad concussions. We also picked up another couple of injuries and because we only travelled over with 20 players after some late withdrawals on Friday night we defaulted our second game. We thought that was the best thing to do in the interests of player safety," Hastings manager James Rosenberg said..
I only quoted a few of the injuries, but if you'd like to see which players are playing for HR&S and NOBM, this is a good article to read.

Napier OB Marist have defeated Tech OB 119-12, yes 119-12.
Did you attend Stockcar86?
Who's going to tell Higgins?
@Number-10 It is not often Tech get beaten in the local cricket competition. It must have been a real green top (presumably the local rules allow twelve wickets for pitches like that) but I still back my bowlers to dismiss the NOBM team for less than 119.

I needed to work so made the call to go to speedway to tonight rather than rugby in the afternoon. That's a good start for the points difference

@Canes4life Thanks, that's interesting. We knew the Thompson twins are lost to the Bay, but Gimblett and Fabish played for the HB Academy in February, so may still be in the HB frame, despite playing their club rugby in Wellington.
This article is only about school leavers, but Will Tremain (and maybe also Tim Farrell?) may also play club rugby in Welly? Tremain studies at Vic Uni, too, IIRC.

@Stargazer Has Farrell left Hawkes Bay?
@Canes4life Not sure what you mean with "lef Hawke's Bay". I haven't heard/seen anything from/about him recently, but I think - like Tremain - he studies in Welly (not sure). So that would only mean leaving the Bay to study (but still playing for the Magpies later this year).
-
@Number-10 said in 2019 club rugby:
Tim Farrell is still with Tech OB. He did not play on Saturday due to injury.
And a good number of others can't have played either judging by the scoreboard. Losing to Taradale in the cricket made it a real bleak weekend for Higgins.

Does anyone know what G Cridge is up to? Is he playing club rugby or is he injured?

@Canes4life
I think he suffered an injury in the Hurricanes Hunters v Crusaders Knights late last month.He has changed clubs in Hawke's Bay from Hastings RS to Central HB this year.
@Number-10 Hopefully comes with a change of fortune then.
-
From this list, three players who have apparently moved to the Bay:
-
Joel Hintz (prop) has moved from Wellington (Old Boys Uni) to the Bay. He played for the Wellington Lions, last year.
-
Lui Luamanu (Upper Hutt Rams), IIRC, he already tried his luck in the Bay last year? Maybe he didn't play the full club rugby season though.
-
Ollie Sapsford (Wellington Axeman), a winger who has played for the Wellington Dev team and, according to Google, Mid-Canterbury in 2016.
