This week in the Niche Cache we reflect on Auckland FC and NZ Warriors losses at Mt Smart. We discuss Auckland FC's loss to Melbourne Victory in the A-League finals before reacting to news that Kosta Barbarouses will leave Wellington Phoenix, as well as a few notes about the NZ Under 20s squad and Chris Wood's season with Nottingham Forest. Then we dive into the NZ Warriors loss vs Canberra Raiders with the Kiwi-NRL Raiders, Moala Graham-Taufa's move to Rabbitohs and Benaiah Ioelu's debut for Roosters sprinkled in, before exploring NSW Cup and Jersey Flegg Cup wins for NZ Warriors vs Bulldogs. We update Jackson Ball's crazy NBL season and finish with a chat about the NZ-A cricket tour of Bangladesh, plus some updates for kiwis in County Championship.
