Illegal Flying Wedge given a high-five in SLSR League

STEP by step, week to week, left right left, they all fall down, like toy Soldiers. Bit by bit, their Hearts torn apart, they fail to win, but the battle wages on, for the Schoolboy Soldiers.

With Trinity College being the only undefeated side in the League, all gazes are now set on next week's battle in the Hills against the mighty Wesley. While the elite rugby playing schools of yesteryears fell like a row of Dominoes last weekend, a dangerous play that was banned by World Rugby ten years ago, flew sky high staining the skyline that was decorated by vivid, colourful Kites by the Beach at Mount Lavinia. Details are elaborated in the relevant review below.

Kingswood hosting Ananda - 25 July:

The game kicked off with the home team trying to dominate proceedings in a rush, and as if the Sun was about to set an hour earlier, whereas the Anandians took matters calmly and remained composed, quite admirably. Three factors made it a low scoring half, although both teams strived to attack fiercely with every possession.

1.The constant sturdy defence formation and tackling of both teams. For instance, a strong front-on tackle by the Kingswood defence, not only forced a Knock Forward inside their 10, but saved a certain 7 points for them, while holding up another potential Grounding saved another 5.

2.Kingswood's array of penalties and poor Ball handling offered them very few chances to attack inside the visitors' grid, instead gifted the latter the majority of Ball procession and the chance to Camp at the hosts' front yard.

3.Although Ananda occupied foreign territory during most of the former half, they could not finish their onslaughts due to conceding many penalties inside the Kingswood half, assisted by some sound defence by the latter.
