1st XV vs Hastings 2nd XV – Win 48 – 5 Structured intensity was excellent in parts. Up tempo game at times irresistible. Defence generally decisive. Tries to Ellis-Jones, Dykes, Gaveau, 2 Peacock, Cadwallader, Morrison, O’Sullivan. Four conversions to Ellis-Jones
2nd XV vs Karamu 1stXV – Loss 33 – 22 Poor tackling was the difference. Forwards played well
C Grade vs Napier U15 – Loss by a lot A very tough game against a very good team. Had very few chances to have the ball and defence was difficult.
POD: M Tweedie
D grade Red vs CHBC – Win 20 – 19 A testing game but the U15s hung in well with H Nash, C Hardie and G Collin standing out.
D grade White vs Hastings Red – Win 22 – 17 Team played well, maintaining good structure. Forwards toiled against a larger pack but their fitness provided more ball to our backs who used the ball with enterprise. POD: S Freebairn
E grade vs Karamu – Win 17 – 7 A good start to the season with the side scoring 3 well taken tries. POD: N Parata & J Cross
E grade vs CHBC Win 73 – 7 Played a weak opposition and scored 13 tries. T McHardy 4, F Ellis-Jones 3. Improvement from the first game
F grade vs Napier Black Loss 13 – 19 The team dominated possession and territory but too often we did not finish off well enough. A huge effort by the team but a disappointing loss in the end.
