SPORT <strong>North</strong> <strong>Canterbury</strong> <strong>News</strong>, <strong>June</strong> <strong>30</strong>, <strong>2022</strong> 29 Ashley take Deans Shield home RUGBY By PETER WILLIAMS Ohoka’s turninthe spotlight proved to be shortlived as it succumbed at thefirst defence of theDeans Shield to an efficientAshley side 2239 on Saturday. Meanwhile,atCheviot, Glenmark Cheviot was also broughtdown to earth after itsvictory in theCombined Grand Finallastweekend,when Kaiapoiheld outthe fastfinishingnortherners fora narrow 2724victory. The top fourteamshave opened up a gaponthe rest of theteams inthe Luisetti Seedscompetition. Kaiapoi (19) leads with Ashley, GlenmarkCheviot andSaracensareboth on 15, well clearofthenext teams — Hurunui and Ohoka on 7. Next Saturdaymostinterest will be at Cheviot whereGlenmarkCheviot, undoubtedly smarting from thisweek’s defeat,will be seeking redemption againstAshley. It willbeasurprise if thechance to win back their beloved Deans Shield doesn’t bringthe best outofthe Glenmark Cheviot side. Ohoka vAshley Ohoka settledinto thegame morequickly andwas rewarded forits early territorial dominance withapenalty kicked by Scott Allin after just 7minutes. When Ohoka’s hardworkingnumber 8, TomTaylorreceived ayellowcardafter an altercation, his teammates lifted their endeavours. The opportunistic Ohoka centre,Blain O’Loughlin, snaffledupaloose ball and ranhalfthe lengthofthe fieldtoscore. Ashley started to assert itsauthority. WingerKorbyn Gray wasbusy,looking for work. Whenever he gotthe ball in hand, which wasquite often,hecould be reliedonto break atleast one tackle, oftenmore. The industrious lock, JimmyThiele was thefirst toscore for Ashley. Then aJack Marshall penaltylevelled thescores. Ashleywas starting to getthe better of theterritorial battle, but Ohoka’s Allin, playing at firstfive,showedthere was muchmore to hiskicking gamethan just hisgoalkicking. Hehoisted some prodigious punts which had the crowd gaspingand frequently relievedthe pressure thatwas starting to mount on the holders. Thenrightonthe cusp of halftime came aplaythat reallyliftedOhoka’s spirits. Angus Gunn gathered an Ashley kick well insideOhoka’s territory putina long 5022 kick which gave Ohoka the throwtoanattackinglineout. Unusually,theAshleydefencewent missing. Flanker Ben Gold claimedthe ball attherearofthe lineout and crashed overinaoneonone tackle. Allin’s conversiongaveOhoka auseful158lead at thebreak. But it didn’ttake Ashley longtogain the ascendancyinthe third quarter.The wholeAshley pack was rolling up its sleeves, ledbythe Duckworth brothers at prop andNo.8Elijah Coulston. Duringthis period they putonthree unansweredtries, all converted by Jack Marshall.Thiseffectively spelt Ohoka’s death knell. Skipper,LouisJames,scored followingadominant drive from the lineout. Before longBen Wicksteed and Gray had alsogot onthe scoresheet. Although Ohokakept tryinghard, and George Wigginsnarrowed thegap with a goodtry in the corner,the damagehad been done anditwas lefttoJosh Duckworthtoput the icingonan outstanding individual game, by scoring thefinaltry of thematch. Ohoka 22 (BlainO’Loughlin,Ben Gold, Evergreen ... Nordy Anderson scores atypical No 8’s try for Hurunui against Woodend at Culverden. PHOTO: JOHN COSGROVE George Wigginstries, ScottAllin 1 penalty, 2conversions) lost to Ashley 39 (Jimmy Thiele, LouisJames,Ben Wicksteed, Korbyn Gray, Josh Duckworth, tries,JackMarshall 2penalties,4 conversions). GlenmarkCheviot v Kaiapoi Despite playingathomeonGlenmark’s Club Dayand against theplayingthrough champions, this was always goingtobea difficultassignment for Glenmark Cheviot after theexertions ofthree weeks of gruelling finals rugby. This was confirmed when aprematch glance at theteam sheetrevealed that backline lynchpins, MikeKeane and JordyGray hadbeen named on thebench. The decisiontogowithcomparatively fresher legs seemed to havepaidoff when GlenmarkCheviot made aflying start to thematch. Nick Hyde, who has been scoring tries, seemingly every Saturday,wasatitagain when he dotted downafter alineout drive andwingerEthan McDuff crossed on the half hourtotakethe locals outtoatwelvepointlead. But Kaiapoi is toogoodateam to be shut outofthe gamecompletely. It slowlystartedtoassert itselfand was rewarded just before the break when prop,Zac Andrews got thevisitors on the board. TaineJacobsLawson, who was starting to directplayexpertly from thepivot position, converted. This trywas the first of 27 unansweredpoints scored by a Kaiapoi teamthat wasgainingin confidence. With the experienced Matt Etheredge to thefore and prop Kafu Misiuataalso having ablinder, Kaiapoi made themost of their opportunities. At fullback, MattyTuatangaloa was dangerous withevery touch. Bailey Counihan and JaredGilmore scored the second half tries for Kaiapoi, both from lineout drives. At 2712, Kaiapoihad thematchinsafe keeping butGlenmarkCheviot certainly didnotlie down. Matt Jensen who played in the unfamiliarwingposition was alwaysa handful and Hamish Gibbdid some yeoman workupfront. Replacements, Sake Aca, who was outstandingonthe wing in the secondhalf,and JordyGray, both scoredlatertrieswhichatleast secured two bonus points forthe hosts. Although GlenmarkCheviot scored four triestothree, Kaiapoi deserved its win. GlenmarkCheviot 27 (Nick Hyde, Ethan McDuff,SakeAca andJordy Graytries, Cogs Harnett,CalebBeck, 1conversion each)lost to Kaiapoi 29 (Zac Andrews, Bailey Counihan,Jared Gilmore tries, Taine JacobsLawson 3conversions, 2 penalties). Hurunui vWoodend On Sponsors’dayatCulverden, Hurunui played alot of rugby in the firsthalf without scoring many points.Woodend made anuisance of itselfatthe breakdown, making Hurunui pay forany isolated carries. Hurunuidid manage twotries in the firsthalf —one by hooker BenFunnell andone to halfbackJono Schwass who continued his strongform. It took a140lead in to thebreak. Early in thesecondhalf,Woodend closed thegap whenJordySwainekicked twopenalties, oneofthemaprodigious effortfrom halfway. From that point on, though, Hurunuiwas able to buildmore phasesand eventually foundholesin what had beenastoutWoodenddefence. Nordy Anderson at No 8always carried strongly forHurunuiand was rewarded with two second halftrieswhile replacement Josh Cavanagh also scored. Kicker KyleMcKenzie was on target for thehometeam,convertingallfive of Hurunui’stries. Hurunui35(Tries for BenFunnell, Jono Schwass andNordy Anderson(2),Josh Cavanagh, 1try, KyleMcKenzie 5 conversions) beat Woodend 6 (Jordy Swaine 2penalties). Oxford vSaracens It’s notoften that afather and son combinationplay together in the same team in aDivision 1match, but it happenedlast Saturday when veteran halfback, TevitaVea,answered thecallto cover for aspateofrecent injuriesinthe Saracens team.Whenhecame offthe bench, hejoined his son Samson, a flanker in the team. Saracensdrewfirst blood when Johnny Turnbullmadeabreak,interpassed with winger LemuelHillthen fendedoff a coupleofdefenderstoscore.Oxford soon levelled upwhen Gus Mowat madea break and scored. Matt Roberts, playing in his 100th Division match forOxford, kickedthe conversion. Both teamsplayed ahigh tempogame.George Prain andJireh Vunibaka impressed forOxford butthis wastobeOxford’s only try. Saracens made themostofits opportunities. Kerran Jenkins scoredlaterinthe first half to giveSaracensa147 lead, then,in thesecond half, the versatileBrett Hancox, whowas fillinginat hooker, continued his excellent formfromrecent weeksinscoring twice. Oxford 7 (Gus Mowat try, Matt Roberts conversion) lost to Saracens26(Triesfor Johnny Turnbull, Kerran Jenkins and BrettHancox(2), Ricky Allen 3 conversions.
