Only two games (so far) during week five of the Women's #NZNationalLeague but they were both doozies as two pairs of local rivals turned in a couple of extremely close games decided by narrow (and spectacular) margins

Otago University earned their first ever #NZNationalLeague victory and it was Ruby Burgess - who captained the NZ U15s a few months ago - who got the decisive goal
NZ Warriors junior Emosi Ravosai played 17 games of U21s and 3 games of NSW Cup this year as a middle forward before entering RLWC...
vs CI: 33mins, 5 runs - 67m @ 13.4m/run, 1 tackle break, 10 tackles @ 91%
vs Aus: 38mins, 8 runs - 68m @ 8.5m/run, 12 tackles @ 80%
Xavier Willison played 80 minutes at edge forward for Kiwis vs Cook Islands. Willison played 80 minutes in five of his 24 games for Broncos this season, three of which were when he started at edge forward and in the other two he probably covered edge after starting in the middle.
Stacey Waaka this year...
NRLW: 10 games, 9 tries, 12 try assists, 7 linebreaks, 46 tackle breaks, 8 offloads
RLWC: 2 games, 5 tries, 2 try assists, 5 linebreaks, 10 tackle breaks, 6 offloads

We can announce the signing of goalkeeper Joe Wallis on an emergency loan from West Bromwich Albion.
This comes due to a one-game suspension for Luke Hewitson, awarded retrospectively after a post-match incident during our fixture against Darlington in August.
Welcome to Chester FC, Joe! 💙

Deven Jackson curls in @MelbourneCity's third! 💫
A beautiful strike makes it 3-0 to City, as Jackson follows the loose ball to loop it past the keeper in style

Aotearoa's best all-format batter honour revolves around Phillips, Daryl Mitchell and Rachin Ravindra. Ravindra's still a weaker T20 player though so it's more about Phillips vs Mitchell and it changes game to game, series to series. Right now, I've got Phillips at the top.
Glenn Phillips is averaging 40+ in all three formats for Blackcaps this year...
Test: 181 runs @ 60.3avg/77sr
