ROUND 9 HIGHLIGHTS: Tasman v Hawke's Bay

The scoreline will flatter the Tasman Mako. This is only because they manage to capitalise on their opportunities whereas Hawke's Bay failed. Early in the first half the Magpies were the team who grew and and gained much ascendacy however they had nothing to show for it. As the better of the two sides coming into tonight, Tasman Mako began gaining much needed confidence andm managed to score through Pari Pari Parkinson and through a penalty conversion by Mitchell Hunt. The second half proved to be a replica of the first in the sense that the Magpies were the side threatening to score but however failed. Again the Mako punished the rued chances and went on to score three tries to secure the bonus point and a home semi final.
