While the attention of the World was on Scotland’s efforts against South Africa at Murrayfield the 1st XV were in Glasgow notching another good result in their quest for promotion from National League 2.

Two early converted tries gave us a 14-0 lead and although the home side held their own thereafter another two scores late on earned the side an important win in maintaining their hopes for the season.

After 12 rounds of matches Biggar lead with 54 points, Highland are second on 50 points and Stew Mel in third place on 44 points.   On Saturday the 1st XV head for Aberdeen and a cup match with Grammar with the next home match being on 1st December v league leaders Biggar with a 2pm kick off.    A big support for that one would be welcome.
