SYDNEY CORPORATE CUP POINTSCORE TROPHY
It was again a bit warm and humid, and works in the Domain led to a modified and slightly longer course, so point scoring was again not high. For the second time this series, no team reached 100 points, with Legal Eagles top scoring with 95. They were followed by State Treasury and JPM Jets, who both scored 67 points. Legal Eagles move into a narrow overall lead. The total points scored in run 2 was 1,191.

The biggest win went to JPM Jets, who beat NRMA Insurance 67-3.
