By Hafiz Marikar
Trinity beat Wesley 15-9 the winners had to fight hard for the win,
at Pallekelle Stadium, as both teams went all out and had be satisfied
with a score of 3-all at half time. Trinitians had to do everything in
their power to make this game in their favour. Most of the good work for
the winning team came though the forwards yesterday as the pack made
their strong advantage in size and weight against the Wesley
ruggerites, the second half was much the same as the first.
The keys for the win were that obviously Trinity's defence, which was
good. Both teams showed good display of thinking power.
Trinity also enjoyed a greater share of possession, Wesley team whose
strength was in their agile three quarters failed to utilize
their potential to maximum advantage It was in rucks and mauls that
the Trinitians held the upper hand. In this game specially
their forwards, were the most notably their third row who dictated
the pace and the pattern of the game.
