WAIRARAPA BUSH RUGBY ROUNDUP – Week 3

WAIRARAPA BUSH RUGBY ROUNDUP
WEEK 3 WAIRARAPA BUSH CLUB SEASON

Where do you start and where do you finish? The thrilling fast moving game between Marist and East Coast, the late flurry by Carterton against Pioneer, the overall speed and exuberance of the Greytown team or the cliff-hanger between Martinborough and Eketahuna. Let’s not forget the incredible crowds who are attending and enjoying the rugby.A special mention to Sarah Donaldson, who is an Assistant Referee this year and Greytown Premiers for securing the Nunn Shield.

To the “Whataboutu” Reserve competition, this competition is close and at the moment Puketoi look to be the form horse. A long way to go but odds on, it is looking like a cracker of a round robin.

Thanks all the Reserve teams for wearing their warm-T’s promoting our well-being and player support program. Make sure you take a moment to go through the new Wairarapa Bush website and join us each Saturday at 8.20am for the Childsey and Persico Rugby and Sports Show.

Rugby, more than just a game.
