Report
from 2XV
We had a very good win beating our local rivals and Friends
Macau 37-20. The pussies scored 5 tries to also gained a bonus
points. Try scorers were Dent, Burke, Pinky, Hughes and Tracey
with Leon kicking 12 points. The forwards were outstanding and
carried the backs. We stay top of Divison 3, but with a lot
of hard games to come. Man of the Match was Steve Jones with
an awesome display and tackle of the season so far. It was also
good to see the Youth policy inforce as we welcomed back Paul
Mallen, Fridge, Pinky and Deano. This week we face Typhoons
at Aberdeen with a 1.30pm Kick off.
Report
from 4XV
A
hard fought game saw Kowloon Beavers run out eventual winners,
25 to 24 against Pioneer Revolution at So Kon Po on the weekend.
The team fought back from 21-3 down to get the result courtesy
of an impressive second half by the forwards and a Johnny Wilkonson
Style injury time Drop goal from the ever-green Huw Williams.
Beavers remain joint top of the Division but have a bye this
weekend which will see them meet Police Panthers the following
week, probably with a three point deficit. However the team
remains on course to finish in the top 4 before the league splits
into two in January.
Sorry
no news from 1XV, 3XV and 5XV.
