Fellow Western Bay team Tauranga East cruised into the semi-finals with a 73-0 win against Rangitaiki.

Rotorua Maroons showed glimpses of what they can do, in their 52-22 win over Galatea yesterday. But there were times when, especially in their forward pack, they got outmuscled by their much larger opponents.
Rotorua have plenty of attacking ability in the backs with captain Peter-John Cullen (who scored five tries against Galatea), Liam Hori-Clark and Elijah Tua having plenty of skill and gas to burn.
Fell said he was praying for rain for today's match in a bid to maybe unsettle Te Puke's game.
"They put on 50 points against us on Saturday and probably could have put on another 50 if they wanted.
"Our goal was to make the top four which we did and anything can happen in a semi but Te Puke are looking really good.
"We have a lot of young players in this team and it's about building for the future," Fell said.
"These kids have done really well and they will be brilliant next year."
