The Accies roll on

Since my last post the Accies 1st XV have won another two games; v Biggar 38-18 and v GHA 29-10.

The Accies 2nd XV have unfortunately lost to Melrose and Dundee.

Please check http://www.edinburghaccies.com/ for more information on all the teams.

I thought Biggar were going to perform the 'Haka' before the kick-off because their team was laden with a clutch of New Zealanders and a giant 6ft 10inch Samoan who was built like a tank.

Biggar started with a flurry of aggression and plenty of cheap shots, late tackles and off the ball incidents. They thought they were hard but they were as soft as my first shite and it was a skitter. They only scored two tries because of our mistakes and they thought they were world beaters.

The shoe was soon on the other foot though. My foot landed heavily on the bicep of one of their kiwi centres when he was holding on to the ball after we had won a penalty and he didn't like that one bit. He was pretty aggrieved that I had stomped 10 aluminium studs right into his arm so he jumped up, saw how big I was and promptly shat himself before trotting back to his teammates muttering 'wanker'.

We were 18-0 down but then we got ourselves warmed up and ran in 38 unanswered points to put a bunch of second rate foreigners to the sword.

These second rate foreigners are keeping young Scottish talent out of teams. The clubs also pay loads of money to bring them to Scotland and keep them happy when that money could be spent on developing local rugby talent.

GHA had loads of them too. Kiwis, South Africans and who knows what else. Poor Steffon Armitage had to go off with a sore eye ball which reminds me of the most horrific movie plot I had ever read.

One of the young lads, who fancies himself as a bit of a shagger, made me aware of a film called 'A Serbian Film' before we got on the bus to GHA on Saturday morning. Look for it on Wikipedia and that is all that i am going to say on this matter. I was properly disgusted.

Anyway, against GHA we started reasonably well going into a 14-0 lead. We then had another bunch of gilt-edged chances to score tries that somehow slipped away from us.

There was a shaky spell just before and just after half-time but we moved away from leading 17-10 to finally winning 29-10 with a bonus point.

The mighty BOO-KAKKIES now sit top of the league on 14 points. A big, big test awaits on Saturday though when we play Gala (also unbeaten) at Raeburn Place.
