C Div: ACSI 39-0 SAS
Yio Chu Kang Stadium, Friday, August 15, 2008 - The Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) beat St. Andrew’s Secondary 39-0 in a one-sided C Division Championship final to complete the rugby grand slam. ACS(I) won the A and B Division titles this year and became the first school in Singapore school history to hold the A, B and C titles in a single calendar year.
Having beaten the Saints 41-5 in an earlier second round game, the only question was the margin of victory on the day. ACS(I) quickly answered that with an early try and by half-time, they were up 15-0. Saints did not even get inside the 22m line of their opponents half and were unable to put any sustained and meaningful pressure on ACS(I).
The second half was more of the same with four ACS tries and the only stress for ACS(I) was whether James Morgan would convert any tries after having missed all three in the first half. In the end he did manage to convert two although what most people will remember was the fact that he managed to hit the rugby posts twice.
Two of the ACS(I) tries in the second half saw them tear through the Saints backline like a knife through butter with multiple passes and a final strong run over the try line. This will go down as one of the most lopsided finals in C Division but given the fact that the mercy rule had to be invoked even in the semi-final when ACS(I) beat Bedok Town 89-7, this was not wholly unexpected.
ACS(I) won all their preliminary round games 80-0 with the mercy rule evoked in each game and they outscored their opponents throughout the whole championship by 512 to 15 points. The top four teams - ACS(I), Saints, Raffles Institution and Bedok Town - all received their medals and trophies at the end of the game but perhaps they should create a special prize next year for the players who score against ACS(I) next year. There certainly aren’t many of them.

Calendar!
For those who need a Copy of the Prelim Schedule, I'm sorry, but my exam schedule's been crumpled, scribbled-on, and probably not suitable for scanning and posting online.

"Enhanced Credibility / Reliability"
I'm typing all this from my head, as according to what I remember from SS lesson today. So, if there's any mistakes here, you know I have early symptoms of Alzheimer's'.
- a source which describes the opinion of a person against his own organisation / nation / group's has "ENHANCED CREDIBILITY".
- The person is in fact in that organisation group.
- The person is opposing the trend / typical point of view of his group. Meaning: If the person is supportive of a new policy introduced by his country's government, even if it's factual, the source CANNOT be said to have 'enhanced credibility'.
Those who pass before us - Harry Tan
