Victory For Red

The annual Queen's Birthday fixture between Poverty Bay and East Coast resulted in a 19 to nine points win for the Bay.

A full stand and a large crowd on the bank witnessed this first rep match of the season and although the Bay won by ten points the Coast showed determination to hold the opposition to a fairly even game.
