Prediction of the month

We know we're sticking our necks out a bit, but we feel that Marlborough is one side that could win the Ranfurly Shield when it meets Hawke's Bay today. And if it does not succeed, we further predict that the scores will be extremely close. This side is tough, and well-drilled. We wish it well today.

"Surprise, surprise" - Alan Sutherland scores on the short side after a line-out close to the Bays line.

It was blocking play like this which allowed May so much latitude.
