Plains Rangers 5, Te Puke 2.
 |
 |
| It was a good battle in the midfield, and Joel launched straight into it. Here he looks rather stunned by JP's efforts though! | Bazza clears the ball up field. |
 |
 |
| JP demonstrates his commitment by crawling after the ball, or is he doing press ups!? | Luke flies in to a solid tackle. |
 |
 |
| JP and Luke are battling away in the midfield. | Bazza takes a throw, coaches Muggsy and Dan and sub Brandon watch the action from the "bench". |
 |
 |
| There were some sold tackles, but the game was played in good spirit. | It's a goal! Jimmy Krause puts away his second straight after half time. |
 |
 |
| All the Rangers defenders are here: Vince thinking about a tackle from behind; Skins, moving in for the challenge; Barrie and Chris coming across to cover, and John is all prepared in goal. | Chris Johnston made a good job of his first ever game in centre defence. Here he is tangling with a Te Puke attacker. Joel is ready to help if needed. |
 |
Yes, we scored again! Luke shows his joy in the usual way. In the background Brandon has a different approach! Referee Gordon Campbell did a good job with the whistle. Thanks for the photos Jacqui! |
