A tight encounter between these two in-form sides but at the end of the day Harbour were able to secure the victory.
Nothing could separate the two sides at half time with the scores deadlocked at 9-9.
Jordan Hyland scored the opening try of the game with a well-taken try.
Harbour responded almost immediately through Bryn Gatland's boot. Tevita Li then finished a well-worked team try.
Peter Breen then slotted two penalties to put the Taniwha ahead 22-17.
Ben Volavola stepped his way through the Northland defence and Matt Vaega then secured the win with an intercept try. Final score 22-31.
Harbour have now won their opening 5 games and next face a ruthless Canterbury side.
