| The two games between Rangers and Rotorua White were both physical contests. Jimmy has the better balance in this action. | Bazza keeps the defender at bay while he strains to get to the ball. |
 |
 |
| Luke abuot to overhead kick. Stand back!! | Eyes on the ball, but Jordan has his eyes on the break, hoping Bazza will get the flick on! |
 |
 |
| Rising well at a corner. | Kyle takes the ball away, eyes up looking for the pass. |
 |
 |
| In the game at Rotorua, both sides promise to behave themselves for once. The home team have to provide the ref. | However, the battle is back on. Get up you two!! |
 |
 |
| Chris chests the ball down well, turning it away from his opponent. | Hmmmm. Don't kick him! |
 |
 |
| Jono gets outjumped this time. | Jordan whips the ball away. Vince is ready to support. |
 |
 |
| The battle continues. This one looks sore!! | Johnny Noblett gets up well to palm the ball away. |
 |
 |
| Kyle wins this challenge. | A brave header keeps Rotorua out this time. |
 |
 |
| James and Jordan combine in attack. | Bazza gets through for a shot at goal. |
 |
 |
| Kyle and Chris work together. Kyle was psyched up because Jono had given him a blood nose before kick off! | Luke keeps an eye on his opponent. Don't let him turn! |
 |
 |
| Brendan "the Tank" in action | He's shielding the ball well this time. |
