SENIOR FIELDS
WIN FOR POROPORO Poroporo advanced from the kick off and a penalty award saw Tai Riini venture the bar. He missed narrowly. Wairaka discovered a good hunting pack and dominated the close play. The three Merito brothers were prominent on all occasions in loose rushes.
It was from a dribbling rush that the blue backs took a hand and Paul crossed near the corner. Biddle failed to convert.
Poroporo remained on the defensive for a period, but quickly returned the attack. * . Keen following up gave Biddle a splendid scoring chance of which he made the most. J. Kingi had no difficulty in converting. Poroporo 8, Wairaka 0.
