Match Preview

Herbert Smith Freehills HKU Sandy Bay take on the USRC Tigers this Saturday in round 3 of the Saxo Capital Markets Premiership at So Kon Po Sports Ground at 4.30pm.

After pushing Champions Valley close last weekend, Brett Wilkinson’s side will look to build on a positive performance and register their first win of the season.

Tigers will however provide a stern test for the boys having won last years Premiership and finished runner’s up in the Grand Final. It promises to be an enticing match up.

Ethan Perrett will be making his debut for the club if he gets a run on from the bench. Perrett only arrived on Thursday from New Zealand where he has recently been playing (and skippering ) the Taranaki development squad.

Stuart Black moves to scrum half and Jack Metters slides back to fullback in place of Angus Cameron who is serving a one match suspension following a post-match citing from last weeks Valley match.

National team reps, Dylan Rogers and Jack Delaforce come back into the pack after resting injuries last weekend and there's a debut run on for Jonathan Cimmerbeck - the Swedish viking - who represented Hong Kong through the age grades.

Come on down and support the lads and, as always, bring the family along!
