The Silver Fern

@African-Monkey Watch no one talk about it next week on NRL 360 meanwhile the Tigers probably get talked about for half of the show.

@Dan54 Yes he is Jordi's brother. Disappointed to see Jamie leave but as a Manawatu fan, I'm not surprised he's left for a another province. Similar to when Oudenryn and Love have left in previous seasons.

Very good get for you guys.

@Bovidae A big blow for Manawatu losing Jamie Viljoen the PNBHS 1st 5/8 to Taranaki next year.

I'd say he's the most promising player to come out of Manawatu schoolboy rugby in the last few years.

Turbos have already won as many games in 2025 as they did in 2024.

@Kiwidom Josh Southall coached club rugby in Christchurch for Lincoln Uni this year.

Surprised Moana didn't try and sign him long term.

Varsity won the Manawatu final today against Kia Toa 29-27.

Reuben is with Manawatu this year I believe unless something has changed recently. He played a game for Freyberg a few weeks ago in the Manawatu club comp.

This will be a absolute flogging. Probably a similar score to the Crusaders Waratahs game in 2002.

Madge must have done of one his Tales of Tiger Town speeches at half time.

Galvin was woeful last night.

Alex Yallop lock who played for CBHS in the same year as Holland and Hannah newly signed to Southland for this year's NPC.

Learned my lesson tonight on talking up the Wahs to anyone

Raiders will win the minor premiership this year. Easily beating the Knights right now.

Rivez Reihana should be in the All Blacks squad imo at some point this year.

Always rated him since he was at St Kentigern's.

Chiefs are the early 90s Buffalo Bills of Super Rugby.

@Fredsaua12 What's happening with their 10 situation?

@Mr-Fish I'd rather pick Robinson over JGB. Robinson I thought looked quite sharp in his most recent SR game when he started.

Get ready for the most boring tip of all time.

Even after their loss I still think the Chiefs are winning the SR Title this year.

We simply turn to paper Tigers every time we play in Canberra for a finals game bar 2016.
