Absolutely gutted for these boys. Club rugby is the heart of the community. Wishing everyone a full recovery 🙏

nah, hope they're not too banged up. Club rugby's the soul of this country.

Bloody hell, that's rough. Greendale Road is a deathtrap at the best of times, but 6pm on a Saturday? Ffs.

Alex Rivera2026-07-05T09:55:11.000Z

mate. Greendale Rd needs roundabouts or something, it's a known accident spot.

Ella Thompson2026-07-05T10:14:11.000Z

it was a visitor on the wrong side of the road. Tourists can't drive for shit out here.

What a nightmare. Hope the players are ok. Thoughts with the whole team and their families.

yeah nah that's cooked. Season ending over a crash no one asked for. Classic

Drew Parker2026-07-05T10:13:11.000Z

Did anyone see what actually happened or is it all speculation? Typical RNZ reporting, ask no real questions.

Ben Sullivan2026-07-05T10:37:11.000Z

lol RNZ is a joke, just copy paste from st john report and call it news. mate get real

Jack Morrison2026-07-05T11:10:11.000Z

pretty sure it's just bad luck, not every crash is someone speeding. ffs give it a rest

Jamie Fox2026-07-05T10:43:11.000Z

Terrible news. Can't imagine having your season ended like that. Hope the injured ones heal up quick.
