If last season is any guide, Steelform Whanganui could face stern opposition when it flies south for away Heartland rugby games against Mid and South Canterbury this year.
Both of the Hannan Shield unions, which drew 31-all in Timaru during the very restricted Covid-19 2020 representative programme, enjoyed unbeaten records.
In this year s Bunnings Warehouse-sponsored Heartland championship the Butcher Boys are off to Timaru for a second-round clash against South Canterbury on Saturday, August 28, and return to the South Island a month later to play Mid Canterbury at Ashburton on September 25.
