Still several permutations remaining for the top two heading into the final round: 1. Coastal win against UC then United will finish third no matter the result against Technical. 2. If Coastal draw and United win against Technical then United will finish 2nd on goal difference.

Mainland Play off Series 1st Leg FT Waimak 2 FC Nelson 3
Surprising outcome - expect there will be a very lively crowd in Nelson next week
Why is FC Nelson's win surprising? FCN knocked Nelson Suburbs out of the Chatham Cup and half the side has Mainland Premier League experience. whereas last month Waimak was beaten by Cashmere Technical reserves, What would be surprising would be a Waimak win in Nelson next week.

Wasn't intended to offend - but FC Nelson went unbeaten in the league last year then lost fairly comfortably in the end against UC in the second leg, and they have been a lot poorer in the league this year.
You mentioned Waimak losing to Cashmere reserves, but FC finished below Nelson Suburbs reserves who by my guess are probably worse than Cashmere reserves.
Anyway all power to them and I hope they pull through in the second leg as well, as there are too many Chch teams in the top league anyway.
Nelson even won the first leg against Uni before losing in the second - I read a piece from their coach before that game saying it would be the first time most of them had played on artificial turf so it might be tricky to adjust to the pace and bounce of it.
All teams can sign two Under 20 players for the Championship Phase of the National League, but not from other teams that have qualified for the Championship Phase, this rule has been in place for a couple of seasons now.
Here is the regulation that covers it - see below: so Riley will be able to transfer but not David as he is over 20. Jackson Cole is U20
27.4 A Participant who qualifies into the Championship Phase may register an additional two (2) Under 20 Players following the conclusion of the Regional Phase, who are deemed eligible to compete for the Participant, as an exception to regulation 27.3. For the avoidance of doubt no Participant is able to register these additional Under 20 Players from another Participant who qualifies for the Championship Phase. In all cases the NZF Regulations on the Status and Transfer of Players in respect of the number of registrations a Player may hold in a single season apply. Podderick
How does David Yoo transfer. The special window was set up for U20 players. Have the rules changed?
