RUGBY by Jack Malcolm A BRUISING game ended with High School Old Boys beating Ngatapa 25-22 in senior club rugby at the Patutahi Domain on Saturday. It was evident from the start that this Civil Project Solutions premier- grade match would be an arm wrestle. Both teams came out firing. Strong ball carrying and heavy contact were features of the first half. Contract Consultants HSOB took on Larsawn Ngatapa’s powerful forward pack, fighting fire with fire. The game started at a blistering pace as the teams fought to assert dominance. It wasn’t uncommon to see players getting up gingerly or a body sprawled on the ground after the breakdown. In the first 20 minutes, Ngatapa seldom got out of their own half. Sustained pressure and several penalties inside the Ngatapa 22 led up to the first try. From a set-piece that started close to the halfway line, strong runs from prop James Jenkins and others gave HSOB the forward momentum they needed. Numbers on the blindside then gave the space for flanker Sam Middleton to score an easy try, which was converted from close to the left-hand sideline. A clearing kick that didn’t go out gave HSOB halfback Scott Tallott an opportunity to put in a box kick over the defensive line and into the Ngatapa 22 before the ball rolled over the sideline. The attack was not over. The lineout was overthrown and recovered by HSOB, before a brilliant display of teamwork and skills between forwards and backs led to lock Fletcher Scammell scoring. HSOB winger Will Hocquard made a strong line-break before offloading to a supporting runner who in turn offloaded the ball in contact before one final offload HITTING THE GAP: High School Old Boys first five-eighth Baxter Mackay tries to break through the Ngatapa defence between put Scammell in for a try, which was not first-five Mike Livingston (left) and centre Nash Mouton.
