That funny time of year where its wind/rain/hail/sun all in one day sometimes, can only mean one thing - the start of cricket season and Tour of Southland time...

Whats happening round the club?

Monday 10 November - Pirates Old Boys AGM to be held at the clubrooms 7.30pm - come on down and get a job...

Now that all rugby is done and dusted until next year we will be having a couple of working bees to tidy up a few things inside, outside and around the clubrooms so keep an eye on the website to see when they are on if you are keen to help out.

All Blacks v USA this Sunday... kickoff time is 9am so pancakes and coffee instead of the usual beer and chips combo to watch the big game....

Season all over for the Stags...

The semi final loss to Manawatu on Saturday was the end of a long club and rep season for the four POB players in the Stags...

All four POB players have featured in the Southland Times this year with Bryan Milne getting a mention last week...

Check the article out on the Southland Times website: Wing Bryan Milne committed to maroon jersey | Stuff.co.nz

Barney is a true Southlander who even bought a bag of swedes to training one night this year for his team mates to take home for a feed.

Despite the Stags losing the semi the All Blacks made up for it by beating Australia on Sat nite - nothing better than beating an aussie in the last minute...

With a touch more luck the Stags would have had the Ranfurly Shield safely tucked away for the summer but a late drop kick saw Hawkes Bay hang onto the shield with a 20 all draw.

Still the Stags played some good footy and earned themselves a semi final game v Manawatu - kick off 2pm Sat arvo so slip a fiver on at the TAB for the Stags to win and get round the TV.

Also good article in the Southland Times this week about POB/Stags/Fiji hooker Talemaitoga (Tua) Tuapati who has been doing some good work for the Stags this season.

Stags v Hawkes Bay 5:35pm Saturday arvo... simple equation for the Stags is that a win will see them bag the Ranfurly Shield for the summer and probably lock them in a for a semi - so get round the TV and cheer the Stags on.

All going well you will be able to welcome the Stags and the Ranfurly Shield back to Vegas on Sunday morning then head home to watch the Bathurst 1000 for about 6 1/2 hours...

Also if you are after a Stags jersey get down to the Rugby Sports and Leisure shop on Tay St - they have got the 2014 jerseys and supporters gear in stock but if you are after a bargain they had some Stags jerseys from previous seasons at a good price a week or two back so pop in and see if you can grab one.

Great first 40mins by the Stags on Saturday into the wind, rain and hail but Counties too good in the 2nd 1/2. Great to see 4 pairs of POB socks on the track for the Stags as Rugby Southland were running a club colours day.

POB player of the day was Bryan 'Barney' Milne who crashed over for a great try in the first 1/2 and was busy for the full 80 minutes.

Also well done to the POB players in the Southland U19 team who came away with a win in the final against Manawatu in the Championship section of the national U19 tournament. Also good to see Dave 'Crazy' Hall helping to coach the team as well.

Its cold, its wet, its miserable... perfect day for a game of rugby against a North Island team. Good to see all four POB players in the starting line up.

Last home game of the round robin for the Stags so get on down and support them.

Also on Skysport channel 3 this arvo - from the national U19 tournament Southland play Manawatu in the final for the Michael Jones Trophy so hit the record button for that if you are going to the Stags game.

3 or 4 POB players should be in the team.

Don't forget the club colours day promotion Rugby Southland are running...

Probably the last home game for the Stags (unless they score a home semi) this weekend so get down and support them at the family friendly time of 2:30pm on Saturday at Rugby Park.

The rumour was that SBW was going to be on tour with Counties at the start of the week... in response Rugby Southland was preparing to fly Southland's own SBW back from Argentina to take him on, but with SBW confirmed as not playing Fordie has been told to keep his chiselled & sun bronzed frame in Argentina.

The Stuffed Hawks are on tour in Argentina - search for them on Facebook to see what the have been up to.
