Portland will be hoping to carry their winning momentum into the fifth round of the Whangarei City and Districts Rugby League Competition.
The Panthers are yet to drop a game this season and sit at the top of the table with eight points, and should have the upper hand over a
struggling Marist outfit at Jubilee Park tomorrow.
All teams had a break over Easter, and will head into the final game of the first half round rested.
One change has been made to tomorrow's schedule, Hokianga will now play Moerewa at Otaua, kicking off at 1pm, ahead of the Otaua versus Bay Slayers match at 2.30pm at the same venue. The double-header should provide some entertaining football, with the Slayers on the rampage after defeating the 2010 premiers Kaikohe Lions during round four.
Slayers are in second spot on the the table, bottlenecked with Hikurangi, Hokianga and Moerewa, who all have six points. The table will see a shuffle this weekend however, with Hokianga and Moerewa going head-to-head in what should be a evenly matched hit out, as both teams have had mixed results this season.
Takahiwai host the ever-improving Wairoa Bulls tomorrow, at Takahiwai. The hosts head into the match on the back of a stinging 38-8 loss to Hikurangi. Meanwhile, City Knights entertain Hikurangi Stags at Otangarei. The hosts need to lift their game after three losses on the trot.
Most games kick off at 2.30pm tomorrow.
