B Div 2010 Match Report 3: Montfort vs Regent

Montfort Rugby beat Regent Sec 87-7 when they ran in 15 tries against a Regent team that had been the whipping boys of the group.

The match, played on Friday 5th March at Regent's home ground, was notable for the fact that Regent scored their first points in this year B Div competition.

The thirteen different Montfort try scorers were: Ariel (2), Nabil (2), Rexford, Eugene, Jonathan Lim, Lyon Ee, Dominic Daniel, Ahmad Danial, Mohd Shamir, Harish Pandey, Leon Lim, Alvin Yap and Matthew Ho.

With this win, Montfort has secured third placing our first round grouping - behind Raffles and ACSBR - and will proceed to the second round Plate competition.

Overall it was a good win, but what niggled the team was the soft try conceded to Regent. Old Boy Coach Low Feng Hua said it was a try that should not have been scored if our defence had been more alert.

B Div 2010 Match Report 1: Montfort vs ACSBR

Montfort Rugby kicked off their 2010 B Div Rugby season against ACS (Barker Road) on 19th Feb at ACJC.

The B Div team, which was hampered by a series of unforeseen setbacks, played above themselves in the match.

With Coach Feng Hua inspiring the boys, the Montfort Ruggers started the match with a series of blockbuster forward moves that nearly yielded a try in the first five mins.

But ACSBR came back and scored a lucky try after a miss tackle by a Montfort player in our 22.

That was the only try of the first half with ACSBR leading 5-0 at half-time.

In the second-half Montfort Rugby continued to pile on the pressure but conceded a soft try which was duly converted. That was when our boys started to let their heads drop and conceded two more tries to give ACSBR a 24-0 win which flattered the boys from Barker.

The Montfort Rugby loss was due to missing four crucial tackles which resulted in four tries.

Good defence wins games and the boys are looking forward to making amends against Jurong Sec on Tuesday 23rd Feb at CCAB.
