Singapore Sevens Rugby Series 2011

SRSS 2011 first runner-up!

This blog post is evidence of Tabi's pledge to bring us to some atas steak place if Blacks is champion for next year's SRSS. Those who were there, please endorse this public statement. We will not forget.

A pat on the back for our pseudo-forwards Belle, Lee Lian and 将军 yilin for enduring the scrums and neck aches, for XY's amazing leap at kickoff which resulted in a turnover (for a moment we thought the wind carried her away), and for every tackle, every support run, every try.

Not to forget our catchphrase of the season:

Many thanks to the supporters (esp lynette, estherunagi, sylvia) who came down to support, take photos, and do live twitter updates. Speaking of which, here are a few of the more entertaining ones by Sylvia:

True or not? You decide:

hmmm. maybe not.

Dangerous Play in Rucks & Mauls

Law 10.4 (i) Players must not charge into a ruck or maul without binding onto a
player in the ruck or maul.

Law 16.2 (b) A player joining a ruck must bind onto the ruck with at least one
arm around the body of a teammate, using the whole arm.

Law 17.4 ( c ) Players joining the Maul

Players joining a maul must do so from behind the foot of the hindmost
teammate in the maul. The player may join alongside this player. If the player
joins the maul from the opponents side or in front of the hindmost teammate the
player is offside.

In addition the Aide Memoire for the IRB Panel referees enacted at RWC 2007
stated:

• Zero tolerance to players who charge into rucks and mauls without
binding.

• Zero tolerance to players who clear out opponents not involved in ruck
and maul.
