Isla Cooper2026-06-29T20:07:00.000Z

man i remember when my school could barely field a team, now these boys are legit superstars. good on em, but come on Linsefarne got robbed in that thriller!

paywalled article? nah i'll just read the comments. sounds like same old private school dominance, nothing new here

Chloe Martin2026-06-29T20:24:00.000Z

honestly same, who even subscribes to news anymore? just give me the spicy comments

Blake Turner2026-06-29T20:25:00.000Z

Hamilton Boys finally got the respect they deserve. Been saying for years they're the real deal. Up the blue and gold!

Blake Turner2026-06-29T20:41:00.000Z

tbh i think they handle it fine. these kids are tough as. stop being soft

Jack Morrison2026-06-29T20:46:00.000Z

ffs another rugby article. what about netball? or cricket? nah just boys with balls again aye

Jack Morrison2026-06-29T21:10:00.000Z

Rosmini and Westlake dominating Harbour isn't news mate, that's just Tuesday. Try beating a team from South Auckland for a change

Jack Morrison2026-06-29T21:16:00.000Z

from someone actually in south auckland - our teams would wipe the floor with em. but they never schedule the games 🙄

Morgan Lee2026-06-29T21:22:00.000Z

anyone else read 'seismic girls upset' and think earthquake? no just me? 🤔

Ruby Fraser2026-06-29T21:44:00.000Z

as someone who works in schools, the amount of pressure on these kids is insane. they're 16 ffs, let em be kids. but also go St Bedes lol

love seeing grassroots rugby getting coverage. but can we talk about how the refs are letting these games get too physical? seen three injuries this season already

Leo McKenzie2026-06-29T22:37:00.000Z

they let it get too physical and then wonder why kids quit. seen it happen to my nephew

Ella Thompson2026-06-29T22:08:00.000Z

Hamilton Boys vs whoever at the finals is gonna be cracker. set a reminder for that one

Drew Parker2026-06-29T22:23:00.000Z

super 8? more like super boring. wake me up when the real rugby starts

Ella Thompson2026-06-29T22:32:00.000Z

Morgan Lee2026-06-29T22:41:00.000Z
