wheeee~

venue: Yio Chu Kang Stadium
match: Police SA vs Combined Sch
line-up: dunno, but i'm fullback

it was a weird match, cos i don't wanna play today. bcos i'm quite sian oredi. and it was raining somemore, so its cold and i'l get dirty and stuff..but nvm, play la, if not the police team not enough players.

the moment i entered, i saw a lot of the raffles ruggers playing for combined sch. there were Junren, Daryl, Sherman, Joel Leong, Joel Louis, Justin Lam, Pravin, Firas, Alvin Tan and David. Woh that's 2/3 of our first team! ahah and i'm the only loser who plays for police. the rest of combined sch was made up of AC and SA players, but that's expected la.

so we kicked off. First Half was good. Bcos we held them back and they couldnt penetrate our defence much. that's bcoz our tackling spoils their rhythm and our scrum half Kaveh Namazie had a fun game disrupting Sugi's passes off the scrum. Our open flank Nasir also had a wonderful game, nipping balls off their own lineouts.

so the score stood at 0-0 at half time, neither side creating any real chance.

but the second half was a different story altogether. we gave away silly penalties as our forwards' lack of fitness showed as the game wore on. One penalty was duly converted by AC fullback Daniel Chia and from then on, we seem to switch off. one quick tap by Justin saw him squeezing past 3 players to score on the line after passive resistance by our backline. then in quick succession, david lee, who had just came on, kicked his way ala soccer star to the try tine only for his jersey to be pulled before he tapped the ball down. Penalty try to combined sch. the culprit? me, who else.

so in the final play, we decided to run the line straight from our try line. asrie straight out to bevin to abu sufian and to me. i couldn't run away so i passed to zainul who managed to wriggle free from his opposite winger. he ran brilliantly and passed wide left to me, overlapping on the outside and i managed to gain around 30m. then as alvin was too close to handle, i tried a chipped, which went over the fullback but he managed to clear the ball out before i could touch him.

so it ended, 15-0. whatever...
