Woohoo well done St Peters!!!! I don't know how many more 1 point victories I can take! Absolutely brilliant our loose trio were outstanding.

@kiwimurph Exactly! We were lucky to make it into the top 4 of the Auckland 1A comp let alone make the national final. Whatever happens on Sunday, they've done the school proud.
