How many planes will Air Force need to fly their squad to Kerikeri? It's quite a long way.

I was at Bucklands Beach vs Te Kuiti Albion today. Not a bad game!

Great story Enzo. Logistics would make it hard, but be good to follow B Beach and then whoever knocks them out, and so on

Might do that! Will see who they draw in the next round...

Draw at 2 today according to Facebook!

Wainuiomata v Eastbourne

Palmerston North Marist v Stop Out

Highlight has got to be Stokes Valley vs Naenae, for sure.

Welcome back Mr Nomad to the Field of Dreams (aka Karori Park)

Yes...byes for Lower Hutt and Upper Hutt.  Add in 14 winners and you have 16 teams. Then eight, then four, then 2 for the national quarterfinals.

See games are to be played weekend of 10/11th of May

Waterside v BNU and Stopout V PNM  probably the best chance of a inter division upset.

first round i always consider the round of death for the top teams as the small guy can sometimes put on that one off because they don't know ant better…

some interesting match's and home advantages

Have to go for Wests, although it is not going to be easy...

PN Marist v Stop Out. A real grudge match, Stop Out will be out to prove a point!

anyone have any idea what Havelock north wanderers will be like?

I'm pretty sure they haven't featured among the top few teams in that Pacific league for the last few seasons but they used to be decent. My brother plays in that league so will ask him how they've been going

both clubs should play their Masters teams.

Cheers man just wanna know if were gonna get a hiding or if we may have a sniff 

Havy North have put together quite a good side this season. A number of HB United youth players along side a number who have Central League experience. One of those sides who can turn up one day but not the next. Attempt to pass the ball rather than knock it long. Came second in the Pacific League last season after losing 3 points for fielding an ineligible player and made the federation cup final as well.

awesome thanks man looking forward 2 it should be a good challenge kinda gutted were not travelling would have been a huge piss trip

Rematch for Seatoun v Tawa. Last years first round at Seatoun Park resulting in Seatoun going down in extra time

Two years ago I think. They got knocked out in R1 by Rapa IIRC last year.

KO times and locations seem to be confirmed.

Hmm, what to watch, what to watch...

Eastern Subs to wear their 1969 cup-winning strip v Waitemata City. Might photograph and post it here. Bring tears to Leggy's eyes.
