SNS Port Moresby Vipers

Pidik’s double puts Gurias into top four

The Vipers dominated possession in the opening minutes of the game making the Gurias defend under pressure.

They were the first to score in the 19th minute after five- eighth Peter Palus showed his class to throw a dummy and slice through the Gurias defence and run away to score.

The home side continued to build on the pressure and were in again just before the 30 minute mark when Supa George pounced on a grubber.

Quintan Ragi added the extras to put his side 12 points in front.

Eagles soar above Vipers

The Eagles dominated most of the first half to lead 16-0.

But the Vipers fought their way back into the match with a double to halfback Sebulong Ragi in the last 10 minutes, to leave the halftime score at 16-10 in favour of the Eagles.

The Vipers hit early in the second half with a four pointer to narrow the score to 16-14, thanks to Richard Kambo, who was too big and too strong to hold down.
