Waikato 10 - Northland 18


The Mooloo men went down to Northland 18-10 in the opening game of the Air New Zealand Cup held at Okara Park in Whangarei tonight.

Northland had not beaten Waikato since 1999.

Northland led the way in the 80 minute encounter, leading 13- 3 at half time.

Waikato's only try of the night was scored by Sione Lauaki who came off the bench early in the second half. Sosene Anesi unfortunately had a try denied by the Television Match Official ten minutes from full time.
