Rugby:  Relief for the 1st XV and supporters at Inverleith with a 41-17 win over bottom of the league Falkirk.  A full report will appear on the Rugby Club’s website.    On Saturday the 1sts face a tough match away to third placed Gala, 3pm at Netherdale.

Hockey: The Mens 1s had a weekend off but a match was played against Dutch opposition from Groningen which ended with a 4-3 win for the visitors.   They seemed to enjoy Denise’s lagers in the clubhouse afterwards.    The Ladies 1s lost out 5-2 to Edinburgh University in Round 2 of the Scottish Cup.

Quiz question – Who is the last former pupil to have won on the International pitch at Murrayfield ?  Answer – Promising footballer Euan Henderson who left SMC in June played the last twenty minutes in Hearts 1-0 win over St Johnstone on Saturday and played a part in the lead up to the winning goal.
