Results from the past weekend...

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.
