    The Central Stags are looking to get their Super Smash title defence back on track in Nelson this afternoon

    The Central Stags are looking to get their Super Smash title defence back on track in Nelson this afternoon


    The champions have lost their last two matches after an opening round win...and now face a tough opponent in ladder-leading Canterbury.

    Promising all-rounder Will Clark has full belief the Stags can beat anyone...and he's philosophical about their current 5th placing.



    The match starts at four twenty five this afternoon.
