Match Report for OFS (Overseas Family School)

It was a hot and sunny day at OFS (Paterson Road).

A total of 24 players turn up for the game against OFS.

OFS kick off, it took them less then 10 mins to scroe two tries against us, bringing it to 12-0. Lack of communication and tackling led to this.

After the second try from OFS the boys decided that's it time to come back. Try by Farhan(bear) under the post, convert by Bryan. Second try came from Dustin running passed the forward from OFS and was converted by Remy. Third try came from Syaffiq(a.k.a Rapper)a kick and chase from our own half led to a try, which was converted by himself.

Half Time: 21-12

Second half saw the team abit more hungry, with the opening try from Dustin and convert by Bryan. A final try came from Mark Ngo and converted by Hisham.

Overall good game from the boys.

Final Result: 35-12

Tries: Dustin * 2, Syaffiq, Mark Ngo and Farhan(Bear)
Conversion: Bryan * 2, Remy, Syaffiq and Hisham

Staring Line up: Aidil, Remy, Bryan, Faiz, Afiq, Syaffiq, Gerald Lee(Nick), Dustin, Mark, Syafiq (Hisham), Edwards (Qamual), Harris (Ravi), Nathan (Carlito), Daryl (Matthew) and Farhan

Malaysia Rugby Tour Reports..

Hi Everyone:

TWO FOR TWO!!!!!

That's what we have to say about our rugby tour. Great job boys..a job well done!!!

Game 1 (Day 1) was with Sultan Ismail School from JB, the game started with both side not knowing each other strenghts or weakness, however, we came up on top of them in the first 10mins as we were camping in their halves most of the time. A break thru by forwards allowing bryan to score the first try of the tour. Mins later another bryan was the try scorer again.

Just before the half time, aidil run rampage pass the Malaysians backline to the 22 before he was taken to ground but great support from Afiq and he run in with a try.

Half time: 15-0

Second half was like a new game to us with the changing the whole team (Combined school). Again we started with great impact but this time round the team is stronger and harder. We held up our grounds and manage to hold the team up till the final whistle was blown. With them scoring one try and one converted try.

Full Time: 15-12

Tries: Bryan Tan(2), Afiq (1)

Game 2 (Day 2), we knew that our opposition will be strong as we are playing with Johor State Team (Warriors). Our aim is to play our game plan that was taught during training sessions. In the whole of the first half both team did not allow any mistake hence leaving the half to 0-0. Indeed this team is very good. They are hard hitters and fast runners.

Second half we came in stronger and wanting to take the game to our hand. We a lack of concentration and a miss-pass it allow the Johor state team to intercept the pass and score a try. Just unlucky that is what I have to say. But the team did not give up after a try down with 10mins to play. From the restart we keep attacking them and keeping the team in their own half. A break came thru when Bryan pick up the ball and committed a player and off load to Dustin(Capt) and he then see Aidil coming in from fullback and hence a short pass was make leading to a try under the post. With Bryan converting the try. With only 4 mins to go the boys keep pushing up but the final whistle was blown.

Full Time: 7-5

Tries: Aidil
Conversion: Bryan

Once again boys great job.....& a great tour.....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRYAN TAN!!!!!!!
