Attractive rugby continues in miserable conditions
- Wellington Rugby Football Union
- The big wet came to Wellington on Saturday, but it didn't stop attractive rugby being played across most of the Premier venues in a ninth round of heart warming and high scoring action that saw Norths tighten its grip on the Swindale Shield and the race down the table to finish inside the top eight heat up considerably.

BNU Masters 3 v Western Subusrb - 15 May 2010 at Ngatitoa
- Brooklyn Northern United AFC
- Readers with long memories or empty lives will recall that the report of the first-round game against Wests (http://www.bnu.org.nz/sca-match-reports/16-masters-3/173-bnu-masters-3-v-western-suburbs-4310) ended with the warning that the return match would be tighter. And so it was, even though Wests are the only team below us on the table - their defence was much better organised, their keeper was in that position by choice, and one midfielder in particular caused us a lot of trouble in the second half.

Key round seven clash for Wests and Ories at the Cage
- Wellington Rugby Football Union
- This weekend's round seven Swindale clash at Ian Galloway Park between the Wests Roosters and Oriental-Rongotai shapes as a key clash for both sides. For home team Wests, this match is a must-win or their 2010 Jubilee Cup hopes could be gone, while for in-form Ories another bonus point victory would keep the pressure right on Northern United with a month to play.
