## Resource

Matatū stunned the Chiefs Manawa with a gritty 41-24 win, dominating early with two tries in the first five minutes and a commanding halftime lead. But the Chiefs surged back in the second half, mounting a fierce comeback that forced Matatū to play shorthanded after a red card. Still, they held on with a crucial rolling maul try and a late score from Kaipo Olsen-Baker. Meanwhile, the Hurricanes Poua claimed their first back-to-back wins, crushing the Blues 45-30. Matatū’s victory was hard-fought, but their second-half struggles and the Chiefs’ dramatic fightback signal a team still refining its resilience.
