well, i think they actually beat us by a lot more than that unfortunatly, which only made it worse. they were up by atleast 70 i'm ashamed to say, hell we had over half a team of first timers, but they still continued to whine and bully everyone on the field, especially the ref. it just made it a terrible time for everyone involved. i overheard a couple of fans saying, "oh, i thought rugby was supposed to be a gentleman's game, these guys are jerks," and all kinds of stuff like that. i didn't mean to get up on a soap-box, i'm sure no one in this forum has any idea who they are or cares for that matter, it just made me feel a little better to get it off my chest. my coach informed me today that we will no longer have anything to do with them, as he talked to a few other coaches in our conference who had experienced the same poor sportsmanship.
