1st XV weekly report 29-8-09

With a breakthrough win for the 1st XV against Scots everything seems to be coming together at the right end of the season. Replicating the determination shown in Armidale earlier in the season, initial flashes of brilliance gave us an early lead, but it truly came to the forefront with the final minutes played desperately defending our line with a four point margin. The intensity brought to this game holds the team in good stead for the upcoming Grammar contest. In what promises to be the toughest game of the season we now have the confidence coming off this gutsy win to challenge a realistically beatable Grammar.

cheers

13Ds Match Report

The 13Ds won in a thrilling match on an all but fine day. The 13Ds walked out onto the field with the rain pouring. Tries to Lokgei Lee, Howard Gu and Rex Yi in the 1st half, High went into half time with the score at 19-0. The next half was just as tough as the last with countless tackles on both sides until Pinyan Gao scored. With minutes to go, Scots put in a last effort only to score right before the end of the game. The end score was 24-5. Congratulations boys on a great win.
