Rugby Results

Despite turning in another fantastic performance, Albyn’s S1/S2 team succumbed to an all S2 A/B team from Robert Gordon’s College. Albyn started the game in rip-roaring style with Nic Read scoring after five minutes after some fine attacking play. Shortly before half time Robert Gordon’s strung together numerous phases to ship the ball wide to score in the corner, adding the further two points with a tricky conversion.

The score remained at 7-5 until the last five minutes with both teams looking for the clinching score. Matt Macfarlane and Nic Read broke through the Gordon’s defense on numerous occasions but were unable to make it as far as the try line. In the dying minutes, Robert Gordon’s strung together another passage of play to score in corner to seal the win. Albyn’s S1/S2 rugby team have shown a significant improvement this year and finish off their season next week, when they will compete in the ten aside tournament next Wednesday, run by the Aberdeen Youth Rugby Association at Rubislaw.

Well done!
