“All things are possible when you believe”
The game against Wanderers last Saturday explains it all. Though the game was won Six Pack have to remember that we can lose it as easy as we have won it. Believing alone is not enough to win us Championships but accompanied by hard work, anything is possible.
With 12 people in the starting lineup, we started off by conceding a try in the first few minutes. Six Pack, infamous with the “die, die must try” attitude replied back with a try at the wings. The game started to pick up momentum with both teams pushing themselves to their limits. Miscommunication between the Sri-Lankan Tigers led to a breakthrough by Wanderers. Six Pack showed their flair in ball handling resulting in a try at the wings. Wanderers did a quick 2-man punch catching our link and winger off guard, thus a try. Just before the first half whistle was blown, Alan did what he is best; “The Lontong Special” only to realize that he was the dummy-half. The controversial try smoked not only the players and spectators but also the referee who passed it off as a try.
Half-time score: 4 Six Pack 3 Wanderers.
Six Pack played with structure and defended their tryline well. Conceding only 1 try in the second half. Wanderers began to lose focus and dropped a couple of balls resulting in change of possession. Six Pack capitalized on this error and used every single touch we had to pile up on the score. Taufiq ”Quick Feet” created a 4 v 3 situation which resulted in Terrance scoring at the wings unmarked. Six Pack maintained their lead throughout the match. Final whistle blown.
Full-time score: 7 Six Pack 4 Wanderers
Man-of-the Match: Derrick "The Great Wall"
