@NColeske Friday. Highlanders, Moana Pasifika preseason game in Queenstown.

@Savs_Say When was this?

That’s not ideal.

@Otis_Muzza @MarkCurrieNZ Each to their own

@MarkCurrieNZ This one just looks plain ugly too. A blue strip in the middle of a maroon kit is horrid.

Otago games won this summer: 4 Otago kit variations this summer: 5 #priorities

@MarkCurrieNZ I congratulate the Volts on this initiative. The cricket fans of Southland love the concept and have embraced it. Other factors of why the Volts aren’t winning games are worthy of more attention than this.

@dekabflah Shoulder injury. But I’m unsure of the full extent at this point.

@Savs_Say Damn. Any update on holland?

How good does the Southland-themed Volts jersey look, which they will play in in Invercargill on Tuesday. READ MORE: tinyurl.com/2cpdm8y5

Jayden Broome’s life changed dramatically on September 8 when he fell from the roof of a two-storey student flat in Dunedin. I talked with him about his four-month hospital stay, some of the dark moments, and the positive outlook he’s now embraced. tinyurl.com/2wdwnbat

@liamnapiernz Agree

Why Dave Rennie is the compelling choice to lead the All Blacks nzherald.co.nz/sport/rugby/al…

@shortflyslip You’ll be able to give the complaining about TV coverage a rest next year when domestic cricket is reduced to YouTube with one camera and no commentary. It’s certainly not perfect but I’m stoked we still had every T20 game live & free to air this season.

Three Wellington players misfielding the same ball is a remarkably poor piece of fielding. And then Mark Richardson on TV pretty much admitting that fielders doing TV interviews during play might affect their concentration. You don't say.

Faletoi Peni is about to embark on his rookie season as a Super Rugby player. I talked to him about his remarkable journey from near rock bottom to a contract with Moana Pasifika. READ HERE: tinyurl.com/mvejtftb

There’s every chance the coach of the team that finished equal last in the 2025 Super Rugby competition will get promoted to the All Blacks head coach job in 2026. Wild stuff.

nzherald.co.nz/sport/cricket/… Impressive piece of sports journalism

I see the @BBL is basically rolling out the Uni Oval in Dunedin for their graphics. Am I right?

@pineynz Yeah pretty average, although that ‘do you want me to get you an Uber to the nets?’ line got a laugh out of me. Like it or not, the microscope naturally goes on underperforming teams and they probably should have been conscious of that.

Filming famous people after a night out, then posting the footage; pretty average behaviour.

Scott Eade will take on the head coaching role with the Southland Stags in 2025. Head to southlandtribune.substack.com for more.

The Southland Stags outside back has confirmed he has linked with the New Zealand Sevens squad ahead of World Rugby’s HSBC SEVENS Series. READ MORE HERE: tinyurl.com/3fm2rddb

It appears to be the mother of all hangovers. Since Ben O’Keefe sounded the final whistle on that famous night in Hamilton three weeks ago to send the province of Southland Ranfurly Shield giddy, the Stags’ 2025 season has unravelled into a mess READ MORE: tinyurl.com/229hf6mz
