Chiefs Top 4 Semi-Final — Full of Pride

Today didn’t go our way.

The boys gave everything they had in the Chiefs Top 4 Semi-Final against Hamilton Boys’ High School. We were beaten by the better team today, but there is absolutely nothing to be ashamed of.

Be proud of your season, boys. The commitment, confidence, courage and belief you have shown throughout the year has been outstanding.

To our players, coaches, management, families, supporters, sponsors and everyone who has stood behind this First XV — thank you. Your support has meant everything.

We leave this season with our heads held high: gracious in defeat, humble in victory, and hungry for what comes next.

The future is bright. The work continues. The fire stays lit.
