Lindisfarne College lost 8 - 36 to Gisborne Boys.
This is most of the match report from their FB page:On Saturday 2nd of April Lindisfarne traveled up to Gisborne for our first annual fixture as the first preseason game of the year. Due to Covid-19 the Palmerston North boys fixture was canceled the week before which meant the Gisborne fixture was taken as a trial game where the game was played in thirds instead of halves.
The match started off strong with Lindisfarne putting up 3 points on the board from a penalty kick. Gisborne shortly after scored 2 converted tries and a penalty kick leaving the score for the first third at 17-3. With strong defence and clearance plays, Lindisfarne were able to hold Gisborne boys off the line for the majority of the 2nd third but let in another two tries due to mistakes on defence giving the 2nd third score 29-3.
The last third of a game was a longer period of 30mins instead of 20mins for the first two thirds. This was also lindisfarnes strongest part of the game with the boys really digging in and never giving up leading to Kingshouse Tupuola scoring a try with a team effort off a line out and contributing to the end game score of 36-8 to Gisborne boys.
Although the game didnt go in our favour the boys showed great determination and held a strong team culture throughout the match.
A big thank you to the Gisborne 1st XV for hosting the game and to the coaches and staff who made this fixture possible, as always we were spoiled with nice food that was really appreciated from us all.
Head coaches Mr Simutoga and Strahan McIntosh, strength and conditioning coach Mrs Akeripa, manager Mr Payne and to the team physio Justin Mills. -
Napier Boys v King's College will be streamed: https://sideline.live/play/17015
One game is $4.95. A monthly sub is $9.95. I usually find the monthly sub worthwhile, but it depends - of course - on how many games you're going to watch. They will stream all Maddison Trophy games from next week, too.

They're streaming the Napier v King's game on Facebook.

It's a pity the Napier hooker thought he was a midfielder, going for a run to the try line and passing way too late to his wing, when the King's players had already caught up with him. If he'd passed sooner, it would have been a certain try to the left winger.
That was a great team try from King's College, totally against the run of play, with Napier looking the better team thus far. The score now suggests otherwise.
Napier Boys 10 - 15 King's College

Momentum has now clearly shifted to King's, who scored again in the left corner. Napier Boys have a lot of attacking flair, but can't finish their opportunities. Defence is definitely a work on.
Generally, King's doesn't really look the stronger team, they create few chances, but when they do, they score from them.
Napier 10 - 20 King's

@stargazer Is Francis Manuleleua playing for King's? He would be their 12 or 13.

I've a strong impression that Napier had far fewer players available than were on the team sheet.
Just as I write that, another successful driving maul from Napier. The ball comes out at the back and one of the backs goes over for the try. Not sure who it was.
Their no. 13 now doing the kicking & he misses the conversion.
Napier 20 - 28 King's
