Could be wet weather rugby on Friday night.
I wonder how serious Tucker's shoulder injury is?

Very rare to see a player selected from Division one.
Wasn't Messam listed as a Raglan player last year, or the year before?
Filipo has certainly rotated a lot of players over the first 3 games. Looking forward to seeing how Reuben goes as a starter. He was a good chance to make the NZ U20s but for injury, so didn't play for the Chiefs U20s either.

@Bovidae surprised to see a second string combination named against a Counties team with their internationals back. Counties should be too strong - unless Dmac provides some magic.

Nah. Reasonably even. Apart from those three guys our lot are mostly a notch below.

@ARHS Yeah, a couple of debutants and no L Jacobson, Johnstone, Dyer or Ratima. Good to see Norris available again.

Great play from CM ..patient and accurate

Nepo Laulala’s defence exposed big time ..
