CHAMPIONS!

24. Sep, 2009 17 Comments

Shebeen took the coveted Mug (we won the bowl – UCT admitted the mistake) title by scoring three cracking tries in a 15-7 victory over Smuts.

The Smuts pack was no match for Shebeen at the breakdown or in the scrums, and the pressure told on their backline. The result was plenty of possession for the men in green, and they could have indeed scored more than three tries.

After a long spell in the Smuts half, Shebeen scored through Tim Vann when he sniped from the base of the ruck. The second try also arrived through a multi-phase attack, Warren Wakefield finishing in the left hand corner as Shebeen exploited the overlap.

The third score was all Wakefield, who had obviously brought his dancing shoes instead of his rugby boots. Receiving the ball in midfield, he moonwalked past the first defender, waltzed past the second, foxtrotted through the third, and finished with a sprint for the line.

Smuts did score a try of their own on the hooter, but the end score was no true reflection of the game.

Highlights in the aftermath include Spider Gary, dancing and singing with Ubumbo, Tom trying his hand at reporting, Mark trying to steal the Cup and Laing’s unique rendition of Sweet Chariot.

    I picked up a set of shoulder pads if someone is missing them. If no one claims I’m going to donate them to Vella for his ‘last’ season in 2010

    Transcript of a conversation, 12:08, 24 September

    JC: Hello?
    Guv: JC, it’s Guv. Sorry to be rude bud, but where did we end up last night?
    JC: I had to go at around 10:30, so I’m not sure where you ended up. Why, what happened?
    Guv: Well, I can’t find my car.
    JC: HAHAHAHAHA!
    Guv: (annoyed) It’s not actually very funny. I don’t know where it is.
    JC: HAHAHAHAHAA!

    Moral of the story: Don’t drive and then drink. You will become the subject of mass ridicule when you can’t find your car.
