 XTRAMSN: Counties Cop $4000 Fine
In his finding, Squire found that Counties Manukau breached the NPC eligibility regulations by playing prop James Carew in their Air New Zealand NPC Division Two opening round match against Poverty Bay at Pukekohe on August 13.
Squire found that Carew had transferred from Northland to Counties Manukau in late 2003 but the Counties Manukau RFU had not completed the formal transfer requirements.
Squire found that while the breach was not deliberate and Counties Manukau had not gained any real advantage from the breach, the union had not carried out an important obligation.

Counties were on the scoreboard first when Gavin Donald slotted a penalty from 30 metres out in the sixth minute, but it was all Auckland for the remainder of the match.
The Counties challenge was effectively put to bed in the 17th minute when Koonwaiyou picked up his second, but further tries to Isa Nacewa, Dave Gibson, Soana Tonga'uhia, Mose Tuiali'i and captain Charles Riechelmann before the break broke the half-century mark.
But Counties finally managed to breach the Auckland defence when Taiasina Tuifoa stretched over to score their first try and the conversion by Troy Nathan pushed them into double figures.

Waikato emerged with all four points from their Air New Zealand Cup match against Counties Manukau on Saturday, but they were rather fortunate to do so, with only Sosene Anesi's late try snatching the spoils in Hamilton.
Manukau kept the ball tight when they had it in midfield, mauling the ball down with the forwards and leaving the backs looking rather motionless and bedraggled.
