In the first of two pre-season games this term, the development XV rugby team made a phenomenal start defeating McCleans 59-0 on Saturday. Tries were scored by numerous players with an impressive 33 points being scored in the second half. An encouraging sign is the depth of talent and courage shown by the younger players who debuted in the Development team and the boys are looking forward to a challenging fixture against Gisborne Boys 2nd XV this weekend.
