You beauty! New Opawa Bridge will be built

By Bill McElhinney The historic Opawa River Bridge is going to be replaced with a new two-lane bridge. “This is the best news I’ve had from the New Zealand Transport Agency in my time at council, which is eight years,” Marlborough District Council deputy mayor Terry Sloan says. Terry is also the chair of the regional land transport committee and the South Island regional land transport group. “It has been a long and arduous process and the government announcement that it was re-visiting all state highway projects was a major concern to me,” Terry says. Continued on page 2 Deputy mayor Terry Sloane is delighted that the narrow, old Opawa Bridge is finally going to be replaced with a new two-lane bridge.

How to reach us

New bridge coming but old bridge will stay Continued from page 1 “I’ve been at various transport meetings recently and have been doing my best to keep this project at the front of the officials’ minds. “It’s a great feeling knowing that we are going to get

what we were originally promised. “It’s not just our local communities that will benefit, it’s the whole national land transport network. “Congestion around the bridge has the potential to

affect the work of emergency services and that had become a concern for me in recent times, too. “Finally we have a reason to celebrate, with the added bonus that the old heritage bridge will be retained to be

enjoyed by pedestrians and cyclists.” The 170-metre long and 5.5m wide historic bridge built in 1917 joined Grove Rd at the northern entrance to Blenheim and was the first concrete bowstring arch

construction built in New Zealand. It had eight equal arch trusses and was registered with the Historic Places Trust in 1990 under a category 1 classification, which saved it from demolition.

$21m to build new bridge By Bill McElhinney The NZ Transport Agency says it will take about 18 months to construct the new bridge over the Opawa. The cost has also gone up. The project was initially costed at $17.5 million, but $21 million has been budgeted for the project. The budget includes land-

scaping and road realignment. The existing bridge, sometimes called the banana bridge, is too narrow and unsuitable for current transport needs. NZTA South Island director of regional relationships, Jim Harland, says he is pleased to be able to provide certainty for the Marlborough community.

The new bridge will make State Highway 1 more resilient to natural disasters and more secure as the strategic freight route between Picton and Christchurch. Jim says during the construction phase, the team will continue to work with key stakeholders, affected landowners and leaseholders.

There has been significant support for a bypass, which would allow heavy vehicles to detour around Blenheim. Jim says it is possible a bypass will emerge as an option in future years, as NZTA continues to assess the resilience and safety of SH1. “But that does not change the need to have a bridge

over the Opawa so that commuters can access the central township.” It is expected the new bridge will increase freight and light vehicle traffic and provide more consistent travel times. Around 9900 vehicles, including 880 heavy trucks, cross the existing bridge daily.

Weather warning The Metservice is warning southeast gales are forecast to be severe at times in exposed places in the Marlborough Sounds with gusts of 120 kmh. The wind and heavy rain is expected to begin to ease by this afternoon. A deep low from the subtropics has brought heavy rain and gales to parts of the country, particularly the North Island, causing flooding, closing highways and cutting power in some areas. Some travel services have also been disrupted.

Benge & Co ‘not a robbery’

St John area committee chairman Rod Hill points to one of locks on a container which was cut open by intruders at the weekend.

Police have announced that the alleged incident of Benge & Co Green Grocers on May 21 was not an aggravated robbery as they were led to believe. Police have arrested and charged a 44-year-old man for making a false statement to Police and for theft as a person in a special relationship. He appeared in court on Monday.

Break in a set-back for Blenheim St John By Bill McElhinney A senseless act of vandalism at the weekend has left Marlborough St John volunteers fuming. Some time on Saturday night or Sunday morning intruders broke in to three containers at the rear of the St John Community Shop in Boyce Street. They used bolt cutters to sever the locks on the containers, but found little inside that was worth taking. However the break-in means St John will now have to provide extra security in the area and replace the container locks with

hardened steel fittings, all of which comes at a cost. Police have been informed and advice is being sought from them and other security advisors. “This may cost us several thousand dollars,” St John area committee chairman Rod Hill says. “This is money that has been raised in the community and would have gone to providing much needed medical equipment. Now we’ve got to spend it on security. “The people who did this, or their families, may need our services at some time in the future,”

Rod says. “It doesn’t make sense, as there is really nothing in the containers that’s worth stealing. It’s mostly items that we don’t have room for in the shop.” “We’re fed up with this sort of thing,” shop manager Marlene Weatherall says. “In the past we have had plastic bags at the rear of the shop ripped open and the contents scattered about. “We had a skip there, and people came and dumped rubbish in it, even things like car tyres and old bikes. And then we have to pay to

A good read for a good cause! By Bill McElhinney The shortest day is only a week away (next Thursday) and as winter sets in, what could be nicer than a warm fire and a good book? So if you would like some winter reading material, the Marlborough Cancer Society are holding their annual book fair from today until Sunday at 20 Market Street, Blenheim (next to BikeFit). From 10am to 6pm each day and 10am to 1pm on Sunday you can pop in and browse through the hundreds of good quality books that have been donated. Volunteers have been busy sorting the books into their various categories to make it easier for you to find the ones you like. All proceeds from the annual fundraiser go to continue the support of people in the community affected by cancer.

“This year will be the seventh book fair we have held, raising much needed funds to continue to offer free support to the community,” Hilary Gill, from the Cancer Society, says. “With the last several book fairs we have raised over $15,000 each time and, as always, we hope to raise even more this year!” Good quality second hand books can be donated for the Fair all this week from 10am each day, and the Picton Resource Centre staff are very kindly accepting books for the book fair, Hilary says. “If you have any books to donate drop them off to Nicci at the Resource Centre and she will then pass them on,” Hilary says. If you have any queries you can ring the Cancer Society on 579 4379.

Cancer Society volunteers Barbara Ward, Marilyn Hokianga and Sandra Kirk sort books for the society’s annual book fair, which opened today.

Search and rescue conference coming to town By Celeste Alexander A volunteer organisation that provides land search and rescue services to lost, missing and injured people will be bringing over 200 of its volunteers and delegats to Marlborough next week. LandSAR Marlborough has put its hand up to host the organsiation’s national conference which runs from June 22-24 at the Marlborough Convention Centre. This a huge deal for the region as there are people from 61 groups from around New Zealand attending the conference which will feature talks on a wide variety of topics, from accidental hypothermia in NZ through to river search and rescue/canyoning.

KEN Armchair

Peter Hamill a LandSAR Marlborough team leader says while registrations to attend the conference have closed, there’s still the opportunity for the public to visit trade stalls on Saturday and Sunday in the Marlborough Convention Centre’s foyer area. “There will be companies representing outdoor clothing, optics, mapping technology and personal locator beacons. The public are more than welcome to go along and visit these stalls plus there will be LandSAR information and committee members available to talk to if you are interested in finding out more,” he says. LandSAR Marlborough are also keen to hear from anyone wanting to

learn more about joining. “There are different roles within the organisation and not everyone is out in the field. Our members come from a variety of backgrounds including florists, project managers, people working in wineries, irrigation, the local Iwi and the airforce to name a few, “ Peter says. “There is plenty of training courses available, a variety of skills one can learn and there’s usually a role to suit most people. We train once a month on a Tuesday night for two hours, so if this sounds like something you’d like to learn more about, we would love to hear from you,” Peter says.

Kiwi Adventurer By Megan Connolly Young six-year-old Christian Lordan is excited to have accumulated 30 medals out of 96 as part of the Department of Conservation Toyota Kiwi Guardians programme. Christian has been collecting the medals for just under two years, going around New Zealand with his mum Suzanne Grenfell and his family, searching for the ‘Guardian posts’ found scattered on the Guardian maps. The Kiwi Guardian programme encourages kids and families to go on adventures all around New Zealand. To take part and collect a medal, Christian and his mum printed out the maps from online, found the secret word on the Kiwi Guardian post, and entered it in online. “We’re big outdoors fans,” Suzanne says. Suzanne and Christian set a plan around one of the maps and go adventuring every long weekend and school holiday that they can. Christian says he loves throwing snowballs and going on swing bridges because they are so high and wiggly to cross. “I love waterfalls, swimming in cold water and caves because I might be standing where a dinosaur might have been,” Christian says. “It’s great because you go to a place where you wouldn’t normally go,” Suzanne says. Suzanne knew medal number 30 had to be special so they took a trip to Mount Cook over the Queen’s Birthday long weekend. Suzanne also writes small stories and takes pictures of their adventures so that Christian’s class at Springlands School can read through them. Even the class toy ‘Amazing Alligator’ took the trip. So where will Christian and Suzanna go for medal 31? “Next trip might be down to Invercargill,” Suzanne says.

Gardening for me is what takes the pressure off and helps me to relax.

I am a gardener and a walker. Being retired means you have a lot of time so you can give back to the earth.

I like to listen to music on the Magic channel and listen to my favourites from 1970s. I love the era.

Spending time with my grandchildren and around my family is nice.

I’m a swimmer so that’s how I relieve stress. I swim for Masters.

How I like to relax is by listening to music. I love listening to music classics on Magic 105.7.

Dear Ed, Almost 300 written submissions and over 100 people speaking to their submissions over three days from 8.30am - 8.30pm. This photo is just those submissions people wished to speak too!! Two reams of paper double sided! ONE day to consider all this before deciding what’s in and what’s out for the next 10 YEARS? Yikes beware folks! Kind of makes you wonder

about the integrity of the process huh? All this and still there is no vision. No picture painted as to what we will look like in 10 years’ time apart from the fact that the toilet will flush, the storm water may flow, the lamp posts light at night, the footpaths are marginally walkable. Pedestrian crossings will appear that are not crossings at all, bike lanes will be painted green and end where the paint ran out and the

Taylor River will flood after a light rain. What we do know for certain is that we will likely become New Zealand’s most preferred retirement destination if we plan to be nothing more. Nothing wrong with that either except that’s not in the plan either. ‘Strong Leadership’ I have my doubts but, hey, that’s what we voted for. Disillusioned Blenheim

Whitney Street students dive in with a splash By Megan Connolly Whitney Street School students make a splash at the Marlborough Lines Stadium 2000 on Friday mornings as part of their term long swimming programme. Every Friday morning the 10 and 11-year-old students practice their strokes to improve their confidence and stamina in a bigger pool while their teachers look at refining technique. Vice principal and year 5/6 teacher Christee Dalzell says; “The school is very lucky to be so close that we can just walk to the pool and make use of these local facilities.” The programme is fully funded by Whitney Street School and works as a follow-on from the standard Fundamentals programme offered in all schools and acts as a way to encourage the older

students to get into the two metre pool. “Our pool at the school is great for fundamentals but it’s not big enough for the older students who can just stand up when they want. Swimming in the larger pool at Stadium 2000 gives them a positive challenge,” Christee says. The swimmers are divided into four ability groups and confidence levels, then rotate between lane swimming and free swim time. This is the fourth year running this programme for the year 5/6 students and provides a great base for them to feel more comfortable if they want to compete in Marlborough Primary Schools Swimming Sports competitions, Christee says. Whitney Street School kids Belle Sweeney, Sienna Wheeler, Bella Rayner and Hayley Jackson enjoying “You really get to see the benefits.” some ‘free swim’ pool time at Stadium 2000 on Friday morning as part of their swim education programme.

Judo clubs have success All Blenheim Judo Club’s judoka won medals in the Central Districts Open Championships held in Nelson at the weekend. Over 85 participants from all over New Zealand competed. “It was particularly rewarding for the coaching team at the club to see two of our newest students, who only started practising judo in February, fight so skilfully and win medals,” club head coach Shayne Jacks says. Henare Panoho, 11, from Blenheim, won a silver in his under 45kg senior boys weight division and his brother Solomon, 13, came away with a bronze in the under 50kg weight division.

“These two students show natural flair for the competitive side of judo and I think we’ll see more good results in the future,” Shayne says. Danny de Klerk, 27, also from Blenheim, won a bronze medal in the senior men res. Kyu open division. “Danny did particularly well facing some of the top judo competitors from around New Zealand and did himself and the Blenheim Club proud,” Shayne says. The weekend wasn’t only a celebration of success for the club’s judo students. Founding instructor, Dave Foley, 70, was

awarded a lifetime honorary grade of nidan, 2nd Dan/Black Belt, by the Grading Commission of Judo New Zealand, the national governing body, in recognition of his long-term service to the sport. “Dave started judo in 1959 and had been in his previous grade of 1st Dan for over 35 years. This award is so very well deserved for his dedication, passion and commitment to judo over the years and he is still as enthusiastic as ever,” Shayne says. The Blenheim Judo Club has both junior and senior classes on Tuesdays evenings during school terms. Dave Foley with his award.

Cakes, confectionery and cookies Contributed by Robyn Bennett Lemon with Blackberry Cream cake. Blueberry Cheesecake with Gingernuts ice cream. Dark chocolate and Orange wedding cake. These are some of the amazing creations that come out of Terri Hendriks’ kitchen. Snowdog Confectionery is a new business specialising in custom cakes and confectionery. “I make wedding and birthday cakes, and wedding favours. “I target events and also supply cafes with sweet treats for people to eat with their coffee,” Terri says. “Confectionery is mainly marshmallows, hokey pokey and caramels.” Terri’s latest creation has been an interesting one. “I made blue Red Bull marshmallows. “I found a few taste testers and one of the ingredients was kept a secret. “People could identify the taste but nobody guessed it was Red Bull. “I had to give them a few clues.” Terri loves to experiment with her baking.

“I’m 90 percent happy with what turns out. “I use a sugar syrup base, which has to be right the first time and then once that’s sorted everything falls into place.” Her favourite confectionery experiment is with caramels. “There are a million different combinations of flavours, textures, shapes and types of chewy consistency.” And where does she get her ideas from? “I just take a flavour of biscuit and turn it into a cheesecake.” It’s perhaps ironic that before venturing into the baking business Terri worked in sports saying, “The main focus was keeping people active and healthy. “I’ve always tried to help people in some way and baking became a creative outlet for me. “Friends asked me to bake for their birthdays and I decided from there to turn it into a business.” While Snowdog Confectionery is a parttime home-based business Terri hopes to go full time in the future. In the meantime she is contracted by schools and the hospital as a personal trainer. Terri grew up in Oamaru, studied at the University of Otago and worked in Sydney.

We all know what we consider a good cafe - good coffee, tasty food and a warm inviting space to sit and relax. So when we find a cafe that serves up all of this and more, we make it our regular. This has been the case for Cafe 50-81, located along Main Street in Blenheim. The cafe is owned by Bruce and Hong Trevett who in April celebrated their first year in business. Asked how their first year has been they say “incredible”. “The cafe has really taken on a life of its own... we have had so much support from the community that the business has been going at a good pace. “In fact we thought it might start to slow down around now being winter, but we are still really busy,” Bruce says. What customers are loving is the variety of delicious food on offer. The lure of Hong’s handcrafted dumplings attracts people from all over the region, as well as their gourmet pies and sausage rolls. “We are well known for our sausage rolls and pies... and the dumplings just speak for themselves. They have a very strong following,” Bruce laughs. Cafe 50-81 opens early each morning at

6.15am in time for customers to call in for their coffee and breakfast fix. The breakfast menu has gained a lot in popularity since it was introduced, serving up Pancakes, Eggs Benedict, Eggs on Toast and the very popular ‘Big Breakfast’. Bruce and Hong have ensured that everything can be made gluten free, including the sausages served in the Big Breakfast. “We work with whatever the customer wants... if they want to take out an ingredient or add something else in, we are happy to do it,” they say. Following on from breakfast there’s the lunch menu which stars a number of dishes that are cooked to order. There’s everything from a steak sandwich and chicken tenders served with salad, through to hot filled rolls and soup. In addition there’s also a selection of cabinet food that can be enjoyed in the cafe or taken away. Complimenting the menu is the Tuatara Coffee, smoothies and milkshakes. “We have something for all tastes and appetites. We look forward to seeing you!” Cafe 50-81 is open from 6.15am - 3pm Monday through to Friday, and 7am - 2pm on Saturdays.

Did you know we are only 10 percent human? Ninety percent of our cells are nonhuman, microbial cells. Since our diet influences our microbes, it’s true: We really are what we eat. The good news is that you can cultivate a new microbiota, formerly known as gut flora, in just 24 hours - by changing what you eat. Bacteria that live in our intestinal tract, also known as gut bugs, flourish off of colourful, plant-based foods. Healthy gut bugs act like quarterbacks in our intestinal tracts: They call the shots and control the tempo by helping our bodies digest and absorb nutrients, synthesise certain vitamins, and rally against intruders, such as influenza and toxic cancer-forming carcinogens. In addition to boosting our immune system, microbiota sends messages to our brain and helps regulate metabolism. Gut bacteria diet Over time, microbiota forms colonies to combat obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, autoimmune disease, and even certain forms of cancer. The bottom line: The more diversity you have in your gut bacteria, the better off you’ll fare in the long run. Here are seven gut bacteria foods to help you get started: 1. Jerusalem artichokes Benefits: High in inulin, strong prebiotic potential. Background: Inulin, an insoluble fibre, travels through our bodies from the small to large intestine, our colon. Once this insoluble fibre finds its way to the colon, it ferments into healthy micro flora. Other good sources of inulin include asparagus, leeks, onions, and bananas. Note: It’s good to ease into eating Jerusalem artichokes, as they may cause distress to people with sensitive digestive tracts. 2. Bananas Benefits: Restores health of the bacterial community, may reduce inflammation. Background: Like a peacemaker, bananas work to maintain harmony among microbes in the bacterial community, known as phyla. This is one reason bananas are a standard prescription for an upset stomach. Bananas may also reduce inflammation, due to high levels of potassium and magnesium. 3. Polenta Benefits: This high-fibre, corn-based complex carbohydrate has a fermentable component. Background: Corn, the base of polenta, earns credit for fostering a healthy gut.

Polenta’s insoluble fibre travels directly to the colon, where it ferments into multiple strands of gut flora. It’s good to note that polenta, like kombucha, varies in fermentable components. 4. Broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables (kale, cabbage, and cauliflower) Benefits: Cruciferous vegetables contain sulfur-containing metabolites, known as glucosinolates, which are broken down by microbes to release substances that reduce inflammation and reduce the risk of bladder, breast, colon, liver, lung, and stomach cancer. Background: Like a game of Pac Man, glucosinolates latch onto carcinogenic intruders in our colon and kindly show these pathogens the way out. Over the long run, this pays big dividends: Studies show people who eat the most cruciferous vegetables reduce their risk of colorectal cancer by 18 percent. One more reason to load up on leafy greens! 5. Blueberries Benefits: Can modify the microbiota to enhance immune function. Background: Our eyes are naturally drawn to anthocyanins, the pigment that gives blueberries a bold colour, for good reason. We’re not sure if it’s the antioxidants, vitamin K compounds, or fibre that gives blueberries clout as a superfood, but we’re impressed with the results. Studies continue to show blueberries may help strengthen our memory, improve our immune system, and diversify our gut bacteria. 6. Beans Benefits: Any legume will help release short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) that strengthen your intestine cells, improve absorption of micronutrients, and help with weight loss. Background: Beans feed good gut bugs, which in turn revs up your immune system. Calorie for calorie, beans offer the most nutrition bang for your buck. They are packed with fibre, protein, folate, and B vitamins, which play a role in regulating a healthy gut and a healthy brain. 7. Fermented plant-based foods: tempeh and miso Benefits: Fermented foods, such as tempeh and miso, are trending for a reason. They directly inoculate your gut with healthy live micro-organisms that will crowd out the unhealthy bacteria, improve the absorption of minerals, and improve overall health. Background: Fermented plant-based foods are probiotics that have been found to improve the health of the intestinal cells, improve immune function, decrease allergies, reduce the risk of colon cancer, and treat diarrhea.

New fund helps get kids to Sounds camp By Bill McElhinney A new charitable foundation to help young people experience the best of the Marlborough Sounds has been launched in Blenheim. The Mistletoe Charitable Foundation patron, the Hon Dame Lowell Goddard, hosted a function in the Whitehaven Room of the ASB Theatre last Wednesday to launch the next stage of the foundation fundraising. She was able to announce a $15,000 donation for the foundation from New Zealand King Salmon. The Mistletoe Charitable Foundation was set up two years ago to help send school-aged children, who might not be able to afford to, attend to camps at Mistletoe Bay. The foundation is raising a

$500,000 fund, and the interest from that will be used to support up to 240 children a year to attend school camps at Mistletoe Bay. Dame Lowell says Marlborough is “a very special part of the world”, and the Marlborough Sounds is the jewel. “Mistletoe Bay provides an environment to provide a love of the natural world and an understanding of how the natural world is to be sustained.” Mistletoe Bay has been operating as an eco-village and campground, hosting school camps as well as summer tourists, for 10 years now, and Dame Lowell says she is captivated and inspired by the environmental, social, and educational principles underpinning the bay. She quoted comments from young

people who have attended Save the Children leadership camps at the bay, saying their experiences have been ‘life-changing’. “Often these children have never been to the beach. It seems inconceivable, but it is reality for many youth.” Foundation chairman Simon Heath presented the first cheque so far to Mistletoe Bay Trust chairman Jon Cunliffe, saying he is delighted the foundation can support the trust to help school children have the Mistletoe Bay experience. “Mistletoe Bay is for all children.” He thanked the Thorburn Trust for its contribution to the foundation, as well as the many people and businesses in Marlborough who have helped the foundation.

She Shops success By Megan Connolly It was another successful year of She Shops held on Saturday afternoon at the Nativity Centre, according to organiser Libby Barnes. The afternoon offered shoppers free pampering, $2 entry and bargain clothing for $1, with all the proceeds from the day going towards local charity Pink Packets. “The day was a huge success, our best so far! “We raised over $1700 for Pink Packets so that means over 1700 items were bought by the 220 people women who attended,” Libby says. The event was so popular this year that they had people lining up at 2pm before the doors even opened. The longest queue they’ve ever had, according to Libby. “Women went out with bags bulging with some great bargains. “We are very grateful to some of the local businesses that lent us clothing racks so that more clothes could be hung up this year. We are also so grateful to everyone who donated us clothes and accessories for such a worthy cause,” Libby says. W h e n o n ly t h e b e s t W i l l d o !

The recent Speed Skating competition held in Blenheim over Queen’s Birthday weekend drew around 60 skaters from Timaru, Nelson, Whanganui who took on our local skaters. Here are the results of our locals: A Grade Ladies - Erin Green, 2nd place in the 300m T/T, and 2nd place in the Flying Lap. She was 5th overall. It was Erin’s first run in A Grade and she was the youngest out of 10 skaters so a great effort for the first time. Erin also came first at the half Marathon at the Marlborough Kart Track on the Monday in very wet conditions (after a crash). B Grade - Olivia Beldham unfortunately did not place as it was a tough grade to skate in with 17 competitors including masters men and ladies. C Grade - Breanna Campbell, 2nd place in the 300m T/T and 3rd place in the 465m. She was 3rd overall. Paige Horne, 3rd place in the

Falcons falter The King Salmon MBC side put in a performance they would want to forget at the weekend when they travelled south to take on 5th place Rangiora. The Falcons were well beaten 37-18, dropping them right down the ladder at the UC Championship to 9th place. MBC were half the side that defeated Nelson the week before, they struggled to get their game going and let in some soft tries that consistently allowed the home side on the front foot. Starting the game without regular front rowers Tino Vakaloa and Monu Moli didn’t help their cause, but Year 11 youngsters Te Ariki Peipi and Max Morris showed they are more than capable at that level. Pick of the forwards was hard working open side Josh Chapman,

he toiled the entire match, making countless tackles and cleaning up a lot of lose ball. Close behind him was No8 Jayden Holdaway and captain Aidan Gane. In the backs, fullback Keelan Murrell turned in a good performance, often tidying up from the back and working hard to spark his backline. MBC will quickly review this game and move on, as they don’t have time to lick their wounds in this competition. They are on the road again this weekend, this time over the hill to take on Waimea Combined. A win against Waimea is crucial with only 6 points separating the 4th and 10th placed teams on the table. This Saturdays game kicks off at 12:00pm at Waimea College.

Marlborough bounces back in Tasman Trophy Three Marlborough sides bounced back last weekend in the cross over phases of the Tasman Trophy, East Coast shutting out Wanderers 20-15 in Seddon, Central getting their first win against Kahurangi 61-41 and the most crucial win was Renwick beating powerhouse side Nelson 26-22 at Neale Park, keeping them in the semi final hunt. The return of Timoci Tavatanvanavai was the talking point of Central’s victory. Nicknamed “The Difference”, the Fijian centre / wing proved he was in

fact the difference for the Blues, running in 5 of his sides 9 tries. Creating the space for him was his midfield partner Nigel Satherley who consistently broke the line to feed the speedster. Up front, hard running prop, Peter Vakaloa was a constant handful, along with Jesse MacDonald and Reyne Volavola all touching down as well. At Neale Park in Nelson, Renwick put in a consistent effort to put away Nelson. Fullback Glen Ballam had a fine game from the back, linking in well with Centre Ula Moala and the consistent

Mike Vaeno. Ti’I Paulo was a constant menace at the breakdown, his physicality and experience leading the way for the Renwick forwards. Kyle Marfell did an outstanding job shutting down the in-form Willie Havili which was key to Renwick’s success. Out in Seddon, in what was very much a forward dominated fixture, the Coasters pack proved too much for Wanderers. Hooker Billy Collins picking up a double, Jack Reader the side’s third. Marist and Stoke proved why they were the Nelson finalists,

Marist putting on a sound performance to silence the Waitohi home crowd 45-22 and Stoke beating last year’s Marlborough champions Moutere at Awarua Park in a high scoring encounter 45-31. After 7 rounds, Renwick sit at the top of the Marlborough sides right in the hunt at 5th place on 20 points. East Coast and Waitohi right behind them at 6th equal on 16 points, with Moutere in 7th on 12, Central on 11.
