A fine warm day for a change and excellent conditions for rugby. Grey brought the game to Carterton which soon saw them leading with a converted penalty but this was soon overtaken with a well timed try to Lance Stevenson after a very slick backline move and the conversion landed by Tipene Haira. Almost immediately from the re-start an intercept try by Lance and conversion from Tipene Haira had the score 14 to 3 to Carterton. This seemed to fire Greytown up and soon they found themselves on the Carterton try line and after numerous attempts the defence failed and Grey scored what were to be their last points of the game. A penalty to Tipene Haira ended the half with Carterton leading 17 to 8.

The second half was mostly Carterton with attack after attack resulting in points. Unconverted tries to Lance Stevenson with one more to bring up his hat trick for the game and two to Charlie Brown saw Carterton take maximum points from the game with the final score 32 to 8.

A good hard game that was needed going into the semi-finals in a couple of weeks time and with the nearest rival having a loss on the weekend, Carterton is now leading the competition by 10 points with only two games in the round left.

Player of the day points were awarded to:

1                     Point to Lance Graves

2                     Points to Rex Rimene

3                     Points to Lance Stevenson
