A fantastic half of rugby as Wellington head into the break 16-14 up. Wellington went into the lead early on thanks to penalties by Garden-Bachop. Jordan Hyland finished off a great team try for Northland and Alaimalo add the second soon after. Wellington fought back as Garden Bachop slotted another penalty before Dan Pryor was sent to the sin bin for repeated penalties. Garden-Bachop then put Thomas Umaga-Jenson in for his side's first try of the game. Wellington sustained the late pressure applied by Northland to hold onto their lead heading into the break
