Round 5

For those of you who weren't there, the plan was to have a braai and watch some rugga, as we had a bye. However, this was not the case, half of the guys there ended up playing games for some of the less privileged teams.

Jono played a full game for College, who were mauled rather badly by the Nadoes. Not surprising looking at the College warm up, which was pretty much every player doing there own thing up until 5mins before kick-off when a "maybe we should practice some lineouts" was thrown into the mix!

While Simon, Max, Neal and Sean had a bit of run for Ikhaya who had (insert number here) tries scored against them by the Baa Baas. I actually lost count, so any amount will be ok. Come to think of it, I don't even know if Ikhaya got out of their own half. It's a bit of a pity to see a new team taking so much punishment, but I guess the PRE-match pizza and beers is not the best warm up in the world!

Following these games, the braai was had, with the smoke drifting over the field making it look something like Christchurch at last years super 14 final. The refs job was made even more difficult here with the both Clarendon and Ubombo were wearing very similar Black/Dark Blue kit (I think that more thought should go into teams kit colour next year by having some sort of allocation system.)

Now for the long break until our next game. Sunday practices will still be happening, with a good turnout yesterday.
