St Andrew's Beat Pearson at Home

Basic mistakes, plenty of reset scrums and a lack of continuity from both sides made it a scrappy affair.

St Andrew’s College were first to score after a massive tackle in midfield by Oscar Evans led to a turnover. The ball was spread quickly and fullback Sean Varty scored out wide, with Murray Koster converting. Pearson responded immediately with a penalty from their fullback before a snap drop goal from Koster made it 10-3.

Three quick tries to finish off the half, by Christian Roebert, Chulumanco Mngxaso and Oscar Evans meant that St Andrew’s College went into the break with a comfortable 30-6 lead.

The second half was a stop-start affair and neither side was able to exert any real dominance. Graham de Vos scored the last of the St Andrew’s College tries as they now look forward to playing cross-town rivals Kingswood next weekend.
