Papatoetoe went into the game on the back of a successful pre season campaign and started positively. The Papatoetoe forwards took the game to Dilworth both in the scrums and at the breakdown and won plenty of front foot ball for the Papatoetoe backs to work with. The backs played with a lot more structure than had been seen at times in the pre season games and this allowed them to play in the right parts of the field.
It was a positive start for Papatoetoe although a number of tries went begging as the final pass went astray. These little errors will need to be cut out as the season progresses.
Player of the day: Inoke Latu.
Try Scorers were:
Sami Tu'itupou x 2
Sione Tonga
Inoke Latu
With James faiva adding a penalty and two conversions.
