Near intercept by Macilai as Otago were on attack and spreading it. That would have resulted in a try for either side had that gone to hand

Dan Hawkins kicks a 'Coach Killer' as his restart doesn't go 10 and advantage Otago again with 5 minutes left in the half

What a try and piece of individual brilliance by Hayden Parker. Northland kicked the ball out but Otago were able to take a quick throw in and the ball gets to Parker who kicks it ahead and gets a very lucky bounce allowing him to get a toe to it resulting in a footrace which he wins. Great try!

Otago looking for a penalty as the crash it up but instead concede one in a kickable position by not releasing the ball after the tackle

Interesting move as some of the backs were in the line out but they drop out - Ram is the man that scores as this see-saw game is hotting up

Wright ultimately makes that mistake giving Otago the ball and Coltman gets through plenty of work to set that up and a short pass to Franklin gives Otago the lead

Otago on attack now and have a number of phases under their belt as Renata is forced to kick the ball as he ran out of options. Northland touch it on the way out and Otago feed the line out. Driving Maul set up 7m out

Northland and Ram hitting up Otago in the opening 15 minutes. Otago have held up very well on defence and that could be the difference between the sides as Northland seem to have run out of idea's at the end of that play

6 phases in for Northland but they are still in their half. Otago have their defensive lines well set up after that earlier slip. Little knock on by Takulua and we will see a scrum here

Hawkins attacks Parker from some good line out ball and the Otago man takes his opposite number down. Northland recycling well and stringing the phases together
