St Bede’s too solid
The St Bede's First XV ended St Thomas's winning rugby run with a 19-3 victory at St Bede's on Saturday. The St' Thomas's forwards played well, dominating the set pieces, hut the sides attacks foundered on St Bede's solid defence. St Bede's had the winning backs with Richard Connell playing an outstanding game at full-back.
Christ's College, with a huge advantage both territorially and
in possession, struggled to beat St Andrew's. 7-0. Christ’s points came in the second half, through a try to Shane Jones and a penalty by Jonathan Guernsey. In perhaps its best display of the season, the young Linwood High School First XV went down. 16-28. to Christchurch Boys' High School. There was no doubting the. ability of the Christchurch
forwards and the backs moved the ball well.
