Lam manages to retain possession from the clearance from Plummer and he starts a beautiful chain of events. Plummer receives the ball in hand and looks to kick but decides to hand it to Trainor who breaks the line and dodges a few defenders as he clears 60 metres of the field before handing it to Apisai to dot it down!

Auckland gather on their 22 for the restart before a clearance by Plummer

What a piece of play. Auckland seem to be just playing the phases before Ruru places Lam in the perfect position to break the line on the 22 and slip his way past the Otago defence. He runs the full 22 metres for another try to Auckland!
