Counties crush Bush
PA Auckland Counties demolished Wairarapa-Bush, 24-4, in a national championship rugby match at the Pukekohe Stadium yesterday, but it was not until mid-way that they looked championship contenders, unleashing a superb exhibition of running skills between forwards and backs. Wairarapa-Bush had
chances but failed to take them. In the dying minutes the wing, Greg Kaitiana, put Bush on the scoreboard with a try after Graeme Anderson made a break from the base of the scrum. Scorers.—
Counties: S. Lineen (2), M. McLean, G. Wilcox, B. Robertson, tries; J. Harvey, 2 conversions.
Wairarapa-Bush: G. Kaitiana a try.
