1st April, 2021.

Both Auckland Blue and Central Districts secured their places in the competition final with round 5 victories over Northland and WaiCoa Bay respectively. This week the Auckland-based teams play their catch-up games that were postponed due to the Covid-19 Alert level 3 lockdown. Northland and Auckland White will look to finish their seasons off strongly in their final outings while a win for Auckland Blue against a gritty WaiCoa Bay side could see them go into the final with plenty of momentum. Both games will be played at Opaheke, with Auckland White vs. Northland kicking off at 12 pm, followed by Auckland Blue vs. WaiCoa Bay at 2 pm.

All games are televised live on Sky Sport 4, as well as Fox League, Kayo and Watch NRL for our Australian viewers.
