Counties Cop It...

Counties copped it from Poverty Bay to the tune of 14 points to 9 in the Bay's final rep. match of the rugby season. The ground was awash in places which meant all players were thoroughly soaked by the end of the game. It was a great end-of-season match for Poverty Bay too, as they are the first side to win 10 games in a season.
