Draw enough for<br />

Waihora to keep trophy<br />

• By Chris Barclay<br />

THE OPENING salvos of<br />

the duck shooting season<br />

depleted winless Waihora’s<br />

line-up for their Luisetti<br />

Seeds Combined division<br />

one rugby clash with<br />

Lincoln, though a stirring<br />

fightback still enabled last<br />

year’s runners-up to retain<br />

a coveted trophy.<br />

Missing a trio of<br />

frontline players for<br />

Saturday’s pool B local<br />

derby due to recreational<br />

hunting, Waihora still<br />

produced a final quarter<br />

surge to secure a 31-<br />

31 draw to maintain<br />

ownership of the Greg<br />

Sparks Memorial Trophy.<br />

Waihora regrouped<br />

from a 31-14 deficit at<br />

Rhodes Park, with a lastminute<br />

pushover try by<br />

Josh Brown levelling the<br />

scores before a conversion<br />

attempt 15m in from touch<br />

missed the target.<br />

“It feels like a loss. We<br />

were down 14-0, scored<br />

31 unanswered points and<br />

leaked 17 points with 15<br />

minutes to go,” Lincoln<br />

coach Kris Partridge said.<br />

“At 17 points up you<br />

think you’re home and<br />

hosed. They got their tail<br />

up and instead of looking<br />

to score points we were<br />

trying to close the game<br />

out.”<br />

Partridge said Lincoln<br />

also lost three players<br />

due to duck shooting<br />

commitments.<br />

“I wouldn’t say it was<br />

a massive impact but we<br />

definitely didn’t have a<br />

full contingent to pick<br />

from.”<br />

Waihora club captain<br />

Brendon Friel said colts<br />

and division two players<br />

were summoned to fill in<br />

Mike Dixon<br />

for a squad also affected by<br />

injuries.<br />

“We had a young colt<br />

start and another one<br />

was on the bench. A div<br />

two guy played a half and<br />

then came in and helped<br />

us.”<br />

The club attempted<br />

to shift the fixture to<br />

Thursday night but were<br />

unsuccessful.<br />

“We’ve deferred games<br />

in the past (due to duck<br />

shooting) but Lincoln<br />

wasn’t keen,” Waihora<br />

president Mike Dixon said,<br />

who was also away duck<br />

shooting.<br />

He said it was not<br />

unusual for players to be<br />

unavailable throughout the<br />

campaign these days.<br />

“We’re not quite hitting<br />

our straps because we’ve<br />

got guys away, holidays,<br />

they’ve got things booked.<br />

Unfortunately that’s what<br />

rugby’s like now. You can’t<br />

count a boy all year to<br />

be there without having<br />

a weekend away,” Dixon<br />

said.<br />

Southern and Prebbleton<br />
