If the prospect of relegation from the first division wasn't on Papakura's mind previously, it will be now following their defeat at the hands of Marist last week.
It makes Saturday's clash with Howick in the livestreamed match (kick-off 2.30pm with coverage from 2pm) even more important, with just two points now separating the Sea Eagles from the bottom of the ladder.
It also shapes as a key encounter for Howick, who were well beaten by Glenora last week, with a win giving them the chance to jump back into the play-off positions come the end of the round.
Earlier in the afternoon at Prince Edward Park, Richmond take on top-of-the-table Glenora in the curtain-raiser, with coverage from noon.
