    Southland stalwart Josh Bekhuis is embracing the upside of their busy schedule in rugby's NPC

    Southland stalwart Josh Bekhuis is embracing the upside of their busy schedule in rugby's NPC


    The Stags are back in action tonight against Manawatu in Palmerston North - five days removed from a home loss to Canterbury.

    Southland will then take on Auckland at Eden Park on Sunday.

    Bekhuis - who now owns the record for most matches played in the NPC - says the short turnaround has its perks.



    Kick off is at five past seven - with live commentary on Gold Sport and iHeartRadio.

    NPC COVERAGE WITH GALLAGHER INSURANCE. NATIONAL INSURANCE PARTNER OF THE PROVINCIAL RUGBY UNION GROUP.
