Blues earned a 23-20 come-from-behind victory over Star at Balmoral Dr.Star co-coach Chris McIlwrick said his team probably should have won the game but a lack of discipline cost them. Star led 10-3 at halftime and 17-13 after 60 minutes. In the closing stages, when the score was 20-20, a Star player was penalised for leaving his feet at the ruck. After he back-chatted the referee, the penalty was advanced 10 metres into a position for Blues goal-kicker Blake Tempero to land the winning points. In the Ack Soper Shield division one competition, Edendale earned a 22-19 win over Te Anau.
