Saturday, April 26, 2008 – There was no answer from the Jurong JC ruggers as the Anglo-Chinese (Independent) team swept past them time and again in their A Division match. The score at half time was 56-0 with all eight tries by ACS(Ind) successfully converted.
The game went into the second half and it was all over within another 15 minutes as the score hit 82-0. However, the mercy rule was not put into play. Instead, the referee decided to let the game continue until full time. The rampage continued, with the score eventually ending at 108-0.
