The POB Forde Auto Services Premier team start the season with a 3pm kick off against Midlands out at Winton this Saturday. Also sponsoring the team again this year are Road Safety Southland and Windsor Physiotherapy.

In no particular order the squad this year consists of: Dom Collins, Anton Huisman, Dom Foniti, Nick Hayes, Mike Molloy, Rob Peseta, Jimmy Affleck, Ben Keenan, JP Koen, Craig 'Doofy' Smith, Jaye Thompson, Oscar Jenkins, Rocky Pettigrew, Campbell Wood, David Hall, Johno Steele, Jack Sharland, Lukas Murch, Dan Cairns, Brad Lake, Liam Howley, James Schrader, Kurt Schrader, Katopau Tuilaepa, Materua Toupo and Pua Kuresa .

Coaches: Matt Saunders and David Hall
Manager: Allan Meikle
Physio: Craig McColl

New to the squad this year are Dan Cairns, Brad Lake, Liam Howley, James Schrader, Kurt Schrader, Katopau Tuilaepa and  Pua Kuresa .

Not available at the moment are Tua Talemaitoga (playing in France), Bryan Milne (getting over an injury from last years NPC) and Craig "Stick" Smith (playing cricket for the Otago Volts).

After a couple of seasons at the helm Matt Saunders has got the team going well and they will be worth watching this year.

The POB Forklifts NZ Division 3 team has a bye first round after a late withdrawl from Midlands. Due to a restructuring of the Div1 & Div2 grades there is now a Division 3 in the Southland Rugby competition as well. 

Harvey Tanks are also sponsoring the team this year and after a few years of using handed down jerseys the boys will be hitting the field in new jerseys this season so hopefully they will play as good as they look.


























The usual suspects plus a few new faces will be turning out in Division 3 this year. 

The big news is the top heavy coaching/management structure that will be guiding the team thru the season:

Coaches: Daniel Rolton & Jayde Key
Mentors: Regan Johns & Dennis Thompson
Managers: Grant Nimmo & John Butler
Assistant managers: Braden Diack & Jared McCulloch


The team also starts off the year with $50 left over from last years team fund along with a chilly bin of expired beer from the last bus trip of the season so a good foundation to build on.

Last weekend of pre season games before the season kicks off next Saturday...


1pm @ Waikiwi - POB Senior Cs/Div3 v Waikiwi Senior Cs/Div2...


2pm @ POB - POB Premiers v the Babas...


Couple of early start times as not only do both teams have the top 2 inches focused on rugby there is the Black Caps v West Indies Cricket Word Cup semi to fit into the day as well.


On the subject of cricket great to see Craig Smith notching up a nice 70 for the Volts in their game against Northern Districts...
