And a new one will begin. But that will have to wait until Thursday. Right now, I have to put up the last of the results of the second round and both times, the home teams got pummelled, starting when Counties Manukau beat Wellington 31-25. Counties scored their points from two tries by Ahsee Tuala, one try by Reynold Lee-Lo, and two conversions and four penalties by Baden Kerr. Wellington scored theirs from one try each by Hosea Gear, Sean Treeby, and Charlie Ngatai, as well as two penalties and two conversions from Fa'atonu Fili.
After Counties continued their winning streak, the two most northern sides in the tournament went head-to-head as North Harbour beat Northland 25-24 in a match where Anthony Boric was sin-binned in the 67th minute. North Harbour's points came from a try by Matt Luamanu, two penalties and a dropped-goal by Ben Botica, and three penalties and a conversion by Mike Harris. Northland's points came from tries by Bryce Heem, David Holwell, and Dean Budd, as well as a penalty and three conversions from Lachie Munro.
