There will be a new Vodafone Super Deans under 18 champion crowned this year after defending champions were bundled out of the semi final by Natabua High School 29-20 this afternoon.

The game went down to the wire as Natabua held a slight 24-20 lead before they scored the winning try two minutes from full time to seal the game for them.

The Westerners played some spectacular rugby and also capitalised on Marist's mistakes holding on to their defence tremendously to dethrone the defending champions.

Natabua will take on Queen Victoria School in the U18 final next Saturday.
