It's a try! North Otago score in the corner to seal a 29-19 win over the West Coast in the Heartland Championship rugby match played at the new Forsyth Barr Stadium this afternoon.
A crowd of around 7,500 people turned out to watch the game, but most likely to check out the new venue complete with spectacular plastic bubble roof that completely covers the stadium. Judging by some of the comments from those near to the ground it was all good with everyone pleased to be protected from the bitterly cold southerly wind and rain that was often a unwelcome feature at the old Carisbrook ground.
