SouthernMann

Great interplay between Fabian Holland and Oli Hag for that try. Plenty of talent in those two.

Torian

The Dutch Giant I love that guy!

SouthernMann

And I see his brother has been named in the Highlanders U18 team. How long until those two are locking at a high level together.

Torian

Meat pie man Pole🙂

SouthernMann

Henry Bell has really came on this year since his brother has been talked about as the second coming for our hooking stocks.

Torian

@SouthernMann wouldn't mind Henry making the step up to super

Torian

By the way @Chris-B just want you to know I will be supporting Ta$man next week like my life depends on it🙂

Chris B.

@FakatavaAllBlack Good man.

It is a chronic character failing to ever support Hawkes Bay against Ta$man.

It is a chronic character failing to ever support Hawkes Bay.... 🙂

Stargazer

@Chris-B I hope you've just jinxed yourself. 🙂

SouthernMann

That is unexcusable from Manawatu. Complaining about the throw instead of watching the ball.

Torian

Holland having a day of it

SouthernMann

This is getting a touch uncomfortable

Torian

Nice Gilbert sets up big Ollie

Commentator just said Haig was born in Perth (was aware he spent time in England) landers could nearly have a forward pack of guys born overseas De Groot, Dickson, Holland, Haig, Frizell

@FakatavaAllBlack said in Manawatu v Otago:

Born there to English parents I understand. Only came to NZ at age about 13 or 14.

Halfback Mclea has really taken his chances the past fortnight as my guy Sean Withy scores
