Mataura and Edendale had everything to lose when they played in 1971.
The winner was to meet Wyndham in the final of the Wallis Shield.
Mataura were lucky to win 6-3.
Edendale did not use its stylish backline and relied on the boot of Neil Gibson.
His opposite Mataura's Lindsay Miekle played a similar role, but it showed what could be done when Noel Gardiner the winger for Matuara could do with and on ball.
Both forward packs played with guts and it was a torrid affair with neither giving an inch.
Peter Ferguson, Des Herbert in the loose and Bruce Lambie (hooker), Ian Udy, Alistair Murray and Barney Blakely played their hearts out.
For Mataura; Bunter McGowan, Stan Chamberlain, Gus McAlister were strong in the tight and Jake Wanoa and Graham McGowan in the loose.

​
Mataura: Noel Gardiner, Warren Marshall (1)
Edendale:  Gordon Hunter (1)
