Withdrawal
Club rugby is postponed ……. with the country in Lockdown due to Covid 19 and no-one able to venture outside of their neighbourhood, that obviously means club rugby is on hold for the foreseeable future. There’s no need to worry, we’ll get through this, I have ten years of club rugby images to distract you with.
Today was meant to be Round 3 of the local competition here in Dunedin however obviously that isn’t happening. Instead, for your Saturday rugby fix I’ve put together a throwback to Round 3 in 2011, 2014 and 2019.
