If you can view this video it should give you a rough idea how the Hawkies Gold Cup race night will go on Saturday night. Looks like it will be a fun night with a few variables to consider when placing your bets.
GOOD NEWS - Congratulations to JP KOEN who has been named in the Highlanders wider training squad for the rest of the season. JP has made some real progress thru the ranks recently. It was only a couple of years ago that JP and Craig 'Doof' SMITH were playing a few games for the Div2 team after the Premier season had ended to keep their fitness up until the Southland Development Squad got up and running.
Think we would struggle to slip them onto the Div2 team card these days but is a great reflection of the contribution they make to the club. On that note it is good to see a number of the guys in the premier squad (Oscar JENKINS, Jay THOMPSON, Jack SHARLAND) this year have spent a year or so in Div2 before taking the big step up to the Premier team.
BAD NEWS - yeah unfortunately Crazy did something to a muscle in his arm (must be great to have muscles) against Midlands so will be pacing the sideline for a while.
BULA BULA
Fiji had a close loss to Samoa 18 - 13 at the weekend. Tua started at hooker again. Big game for Fiji this weekend against the Cook Islands with the winner qualifying for the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
WEEKEND DRAW - here it is... schoolboy teams, these games are sometimes subject to change due to ground conditions so check with your coach on Thurs night.
