Auckland B v Auckland Colts

Auckland's second side proved far too strong for their counterparts in what turned out to be a comfortable run out on Saturday afternoon. The Colts will have a chance to get their campaign back on track this Saturday when they confront the challenge of Counties Manukau B.

Bs 83 (J Akau’ola-laula 2, E Meleisea, H Ahokovi, T Latu, M East 2, A Dabek, W Riedlinger-Kapa, O Mausia, D Tusitala 2, F Vakauta tries; H Miller 5, D Leuila 2, D Tusitala 2 conversions)

Colts 12 (M Te’o, P Vaovasa tries; G Taina conversion)

(Halftime: 33 – 12)

Auckland U85 v Thames Valley Development

The U85s got their season off to a winning star with a gritty win over the much bigger Thames Valley Development side who do not fall under the weight restriction. The match was still locked at 0-0 at the end of the first spell, but 85s outlasted their rivals to claim the victory.

U85kg 15 (J Neary, T Crothall tries; M Ward conversion; J Simpkins penalty)

Thames Valley Development 10

(Halftime: 0 - 0)

Auckland U19A v Auckland U19 Development

This was as tight as they come and a good sign of the competitiveness within the age-group. The U19 Development came within a whisker of pulling off what would of been deemed an upset win and potentially claim the higher seeding of the two Auckland sides for the National tournament. The U19A however, were able to hold their nerve when it really mattered and claim a nervy victory.

U19A 13 (C Clarke, T Faleafa tries; J Cooper penalty)

U19 Development 12

(Halftime: TBC)
