C Div Match Report 3: Montfort vs Peirce




The Montfort Rugby Lions C Div team notched up an impressive away win against Peirce Secondary on Thursday 23rd July.

Nine tries were scored in a one-sided match that saw starting debuts for four Sec 1 players.

This was the C Div third successive win on the trot and maintained the 100% winning record for the 2009 season.

Fielding mostly a Sec 1 team, Montfort opened the scoring with prop Matthew Ho. Although not firing on all cylinders, the team still led 20-0 at half-time before coming out even more determined to make it 51-0 by the final whistle. Obviously the half-time talk jolted the players into a ruthless streak against a Peirce team that tackled their hearts out.

Once again, goal-kicking was an area of concern as only three out of the nine tries (33% success rate) were converted by our dead-ball specialists.

The coaching panel - Euan Morrison, Low Feng Hua and Ng Song Yu - named second-row lock Fakhrul as the Forward-of-The-Match while rampaging centre Zech Wong was voted as Back-of-The-Match.

Match referee Rohit controlled the match with his usual calm and composed demeanour.

Scorers:
Tries: Dominic (2), Matthew Ho, Chinakrit, Azhar, Musli, Mohd Shamir, Lewis Syn, Ivan Lim.
Conversions: Mohd Shamir (2), Dominic
