two teams level-peg-ging on nine points. His goal came after two
earlier misses in the second half. Marton Old Boys led 9-3 at half time with three penalties kicked by Kevin Chase.

The visitors to Raetihi missed several penalty kicks, including a last-dash one which hit an upright. A good show came from Raetihi players Shane Harvey at flank, prop Rangi Bishop and first five eighth Darren McDonnell. Ohakune Karioi loose to Counties Constant pressure by Counties won them the game on Saturday, 131 1 . They led 6-4 at half time and two leading Ohakune Karioi players left the field injured. Ohakune's points came from tries by Andrew Dupwell and Willie Taylor and a penalty by Brendan Wilson and Counties' points came from tries
