on the board when, after a scrum penalty, he kicked the three points to decrease the deficit to 4. A dangerous by flanker Joel McKenty reversed a penalty, and
Stephen Brett converted the three points and cancelled out Northlands earlier three-pointer. Another penalty by Brett lengthened Canterbury's lead to 10. But from the kickoff Northland executed some nice sweeping moves and 10 metres from the line Jole McKenty ran a good angle to cut through the defensive line and was to strong for the Canterbury sweepers. Lachie Munro added the conversion and Canterbury saw their lead reduce to 3. With another penalty to Canterbury and the scores at 16β10, Northland gained an attacking lineout five metres out from Canterbury's goalline. After the ball was taken, McKenty came around towards the sideline and received the ball; after a dummy he scored his second of the match. Munro couldn't convert and the teams went into halftime and the scoreboard reading 16β15 to Canterbury.

try under the posts. Replacement Fa'atonu Fili converted the try and put the scores to 13β14 to Otago. Five minutes later
Wellington were being pressured in their 22 before Victor Vito stole the ball in the ruck and Robert Fruean made a break which ended up getting the Lions down into the southerners half, from there Fa'atonu Fili flicked it out to Hosea Gear who sped around his opposite number Karne Hesketh for a try in the corner, Fili converted the try from the sideline and put the scores up to 20β14, the first Wellington led in the game. A drop goal a minute later by Fili meant that Otago had to score a twice, once a try, to gain the lead; that try came in the 79th minute by Adam Thomson but was two late for his team with the full-time siren going off before the conversion, which was missed, that left the end score 23β19.

Daniel
Kirkpatrick converted from the sideline with his fourth of the day. Wellington handling errors were the only thing stopping them from extending their lead, they had the speed which was an evident factor on offense and defense with Wanganui hesitating to take the gap. In the 25th minute, Daniel Kirkpatrick scored and converted to take its points tally to 18. Wanganui's first points came in the 32nd minute with a penalty by halfback Denning Tyrell, this was the only points by Wanganui and Wellington went into the break with a 23β3 lead.

a scrum forced by Otago by placing the ball in their own endzone, Canterbury opted for the lineout rather than the points, which was the right call, they lost the lineout but when Otago attempted to clear, Michale
Paterson charged down Glenn Dickson's kick and leaped on it to score the try, Brett could not convert, and with Dickson landing another penalty put the scores to 12 points to 9. Brett finished the scoring in the first half with a 40-metre penalty and Canterbury went into the locker room with a 6-point advantage.
1842:
Munro kicked another penalty and reduced his teams differential to 3. Another penalty in the 59th minute by Munro drew the score at 21 all. Sean
Maitland scored his second when an overlap on the right side was utilised and he ran around to score under posts. With the conversion successful, Canterbury were up 28 points to 21. No team looked like scoring for the rest of the game, except for a Stephen Brett dropped goal. And that was the final scoring play of the game with Canterbury winning, 31β21.
1707:
conversion by Brett. Another Ripia penalty 50 minutes in put
Taranaki up to 17 points. A set move by Canterbury ended up with Stephen Brett getting the wrap around and putting a grubber kick through for Sean Maitland to score his second, Canterbury were up 29β17 and other than an intercept by Shayne Austin, who was eventually caught by Brett, there were no other scoring opportunities and Canterbury ended the game with their second successful Shield challenge of the year.
