Token post about rugby game today

Well, we played another rugby game today. We didn't know about it till wednesday night - so I was all set to get work done this weekend. It was going to be the last saturday without a game until the 11th of november. Oh well.
We lost, 15 to 7, to Franciscan University. We actually did very well, considering that they are a division 2 team and we are division 3. And that they have beaten us every time we have played them since 2002 (They are the team that we played last year at the highland festival who sent one of our guys to the hospital). And the fact that the ref was making some interesting calls, some of which seemed to be slightly biased (he helps to coach the franciscan team). We played well, and for the first three-quarters of the game, completely drove through their forward pack (pack is a collective term for the forwards) We won all but a couple of scrums - there were a lot - and should have gotten at least one more try, but the ref didn't call it one.

I played the full game - 80 minutes, and a 20 minute B-side game, so I am tired. And sore. A pretty good game though.
