Not picking sides... gonna wear our Seawolves kit, to show local pride while we are there. We are hoping it is warm enough to wear these silly Seawolves hawaiian shirts while we are at the game: https://shop.seawolves.rugby/products/2023-paladin-hawaiian-shirt
Oof reminds me of our Highlanders version. https://www.cooneys.co.nz/products/highlandershawaiianshirt?variant=37706153558192 I just saw in the local rag, one of our Otago players has been signed by the Seawolves - Charles Elton. Flew under the radar for too long to make it big here, but when I saw him play he seemed very solid. If I recall he can play all loosie options!
Ah yes! I saw his signing, and was wondering how he came up on the radar for our coach (Alan Clarke, "Clarkie"). I'm always curious about how new talent is discovered. Our #8, Riekert Hattingh, was a Blue Bull (and his father a Springbok), so we had a bunch of Saffa talent on our squad for a few years there.
