Absolute quality!!! Great to see future stars of the game....Thanks heaps for the upload!!!

Especially with it being the full match aswell! Simply Awesome!Thanks!

The number 8 for Wellington plays in the NRL now with the Melbourne Storm and plays for the Kiwis too. He’s 6 foot 7 120kgs. Nelson Asofa-Solomona

Sup boys, an old boy here from 2000. That bred Crocket, Mannering and also Vukona that I stayed from across the curtained room in Fell House with. Then hail you Alma Mater, boys Send forth a loud hurrah With three times three shout lustily Floreat Nelsonia!

Stunning game of rugby

Interesting to see this, I play for the 2nd XV for my school in Ireland and we have something similar to this each year called the schools cup so it's interesting to see what the Southern Hemisphere equivalent looks like

cant get over how good nelson college's haka was!

"Look at him he 6 foot 1000" 😂😂😂

That must be soul crushing. Ten years of records and you blow it with one kick. Poor boy.

What are the caps awarded for, why wear them onto the pitch and what is the significance of placing them on the half way line? Really good game to watch.

The each year we have the Schools Cup which thnk is a bit like this, it's a competition between all the schools in each province (each has there own version) and then the final is broadcast on TV each year. IT's at this stage where players first start to get scouted for the professional clus at U17 and U18 level. Afterwars a select few will go on to play professionally but the majority will go on to university or smething else.

the number 8 for Wellington is bloody massive!

The full game?

Not many people have heard of NZ but there rugby puts them on the world map & can they play there the best .

After 5th year you can legally leave school and get a job(which these days in unlikely), go to another school or go off to what we call a technical college(for wasters really). However if you do well enough in your exams(GCSEs) and achive whatever ever amount of points your school requires then you can get back for sixth form which is where you only do 3 or 4 subjects and stay for two more years to get your A-Levels. 6th formers make up most of the 1st XV unless there is a really good 5th year

its a shame nelson college did not win after years of wellington college winning it.Nelson College will be hosts next year 2013

Surely it's 15,16,17 and 18? Or are schools down there different?

what age are these boys?

how old are they ?

Well in terms of the play we wouldn't be just as sharp with the quick balls and offloads, I guess that's why the All-Blacks are so good. It goes all the way down to school level. But when I say it's different I mean the ages, you go to high school when your 11 and that is called junior rugby. Once you are in 5th year which is 15 or 16 years old then that's when your first play for the 1st XV or 2nd XV.

the no. 8 for wellington is amazing.

number 8 for wellington might make it into junior all blacks squad, just sayin

that was a intence haka...

Usually 15-18 but the oldest they are allowed to be is 19.

Ah right, so it's a little bit different then

I thought the Wellington 9 had a great game, conr

yeah kruma

its just a English tradition schools do which is common in both nz and aus.

*controlling his forwards well, especially in the first half
