While the Hornets’ women’s premiers the ‘Nets were given an unexpected week off heading into bye week, with Otahuhu defaulting, the premier men’s sides put on two entertaining performances in front of a massive crowd at Paparoa Park against the Manukau Magpies.
Those who saw the reserves game will have been blessed to see a few Hornet legends return to join the current ones, and they definitely didn’t disappoint.
The premier men beat Manukau 26-16 and the reserves dominated with a 34-10 win.
