Predictions

4 out of 7 this week, Wellington was the biggest surprise, though we also did not see how Auckland would lose at home oh how the mighty have fallen. First week of semis this time and they are tricky apart from the first two but here are our predictions::

Canterbury
Wellington
Southland
Hawke’s Bay
