Mitre 10 Cup Highlights: Northland v Taranaki

It was a game that was rather evenly matched game with Northland having the slight upper hand. Northland were the team to draw first blood and seemed to control the rest of the game's lead as well with Taranaki going ahead for only short bursts before going onto the backfoot again. Both teams will be extremely disappointed with the amount of disciplinary errors and penalties given away throughout the match and will both have a lot to look at on the drawing board at the first training back! Northland take the win though, 35-25!
