Top PRL placings decided
By DAVID KAPI
The SP Port Moresby rugby league competition top four spots are
sealed following good performances by leading teams over the
weekend at Lloyd Robson Oval in Port Moresby.
Dobo Warriors, Hawks, Brothers and Magani maintained their top
four positions respectively over the weekend to gain 30-plus
points which will be hard for the bottom teams to catch up even if
they win the last remaining games.
However, only three spaces are available and that means Tarangau,
Kone Tigers, Royals, Defence and Butterflies, who are congested in
the middle-half of the table, have to win two last remaining games
to make the top seven positions.
Dobo Warriors defeated Wests 28-24 to maintain their lead in the
competition, while Hawks scrapped past Paga Panthers 20-18 and
Magani edged Butterflies 30-14 to ensure finals berth.
Meanwhile, defending champions Tarangau, who are on fifth place,
are showing signs of towards finals campaign by putting together
two consecutive wins by defeating seventh-placed Royals 26-2, and
sixth-placed Kone Tigers went down to Defence 14-10 while Brothers
buried Post Pumaís finals hopes 32-14, and Souths kept their
finals hopes by nailing Waliya 36-16 to complete round 24.
The SP Port Moresby rugby league finals will be played in two
weeks time..
