Where does it leave Kaleb Trask though? I thought he looked very promising in his few opportunities at 10 this year. More so than at 15.

Excellent point - I keep thinking of Kaleb as a Mooloo man and not a Chief. Highlanders should grab him.

I'll buy shares in the local brewery. And make sure he doesn't buy on my street

Good move, he's not a superstar but he's experienced and a genuine big game player. :thumbup:

Yep, that was always a highlight.

More locally, the Anzac Day game between W(h)anganui and Taranaki was always eagerly anticipated when I was a kid in the 70s. Not only a great rivalry, but it also signalled the start of the provincial rugby season. We seldom won, but it was Mum's birthday so guaranteed to be full-on fun regardless.

Yep, I'm hoping for a Waikato win as well.

Difficult to make any predictions after such a long break. The only thing I can say with 100% certainty is that Auckland has zero chance of winning this weekend. :twisted:

Scratchy old first half, Waikato ahead 7-5.

That's got to be one of the most inexplicable decisions ever seen. Even if everything the ref said is true (debatable), it doesn't change the most obvious fact that the Waikato 7 came in from the side (almost from the Canty side of the ruck).
