The Montfort Rugby Lions C Div team scored an impressive 40-0 away win against Unity Secondary on Tuesday 4th August at Saints Village.
Six tries were scored in a match that was initally billed to be a tight affair.
But it turned out to be anything but tight.
This was the C Div first win in the 2nd Round of the C Div competition.
Montfort opened the scoring with captain fantastic Mohd Shamir. Further tries were added by Randell Toh, Alvin Yap, Zech Wong, Syahiran and Ivan Lim.
Although Unity were no pushovers, Montfort was still able to lead 19-0 at half-time before coming out even more determined to make it 40-0 by the final whistle.
Our goal-kicking, an area of concern in recent weeks, had shown improvement with five of the six tries converted by Mohd Shamir.
Another positive is the solid scrummaging from our forward pack. This season has also unearthed the versatility of Kenny Lee who can play at either prop, 2nd Row or No. 8. He reminds me of the great All-Black prop Carl Hayman who in his younger days was a rampaging Number 8 and occasional 2nd Row.
A second positive that emerged is that this C Division squad is very tightly knit and are well-led by their captain.
The coaching panel - Euan Morrison, Low Feng Hua and Ng Song Yu - decided there was no Man-of-the-Match performance as it was finely balanced team effort today.
Scorers:
Tries: Mohd Shamir, Randell Toh, Alvin Yap, Zech Wong, Syahiran and Ivan.
Conversions: Mohd Shamir (5)
