That's all folks, superb play from Ihaia West and Zac Guildford wrapped this one up for the away side who go into the last two games as favourites to secure the 2nd home semi final spot. Southland must do battle with Counties next week in what will be a must-win as they are not even sure of making the semi-finals.
Thank you for joining us, until next time.

Handling errors at crucial areas are stifling any chance the Stags have of getting a bonus point.

Magpies on the attack. Benefiting from a forwards pass from the Stags as they looked to run the ball from deep.

10 minutes to go. Can Southland get the 2 scores required to rescue this game?

The Stags now with an attacking scrum on the Magpies 22 smack bag in the middle of the park. Great attacking opportunity.

Marty McKenzie with the up and under. Guildford claims with confidence and attacks the ball. He fed Latu who draws the last man to fed West who shows some pace to run it in from 25m

Mark Abbott with an intercept bursts up field but didn't have the gas to out pace the cover!

Intricate play in midfield sees Vaega and Halaholo combining to make some yards.

The crowd rise to the feet as the centurion David Hall leaves the field.

Some great offloading from the Magpies made it difficult to set a defensive line. A half break from Horrell and a supporting line from Guildford leads to a try for the away side.
