New York-Manhattan vs NYAC “B”

29^th April 2006, Pier 40. Kick-off 7:30pm

Score: NYM 22 - 20 NYAC

After a 4 week lay-off NYM finally got their spring season going by beating arguably their toughest opponent so far. This was despite 4 men being sent to the sin bin. One conversion was the difference between two sides that scored four tries apiece. Just reward for NYMs endeavor in training over the last couple of weeks.

Pier 40 pulled the game due to flooding of the artificial turf field, leaving a bus load of "horses" from Baltimore half an hour to the city but with no match to play. What better way to literally drown the sorrows than a 15-man boat race between the two teams in Mr Dennehys. More follows from Doc Rizzo...

NYM traveled to picturesque Rhode Island in eager mood to put this seasons early losses behind them. However, yet again we came unstuck by an opponent who wanted it just that bit more, and had 16 men.

Match Report: NYM vs Media RFC, March 25th 2006

A-side L 20-5. NYM started out at a high tempo, putting together very good phases as the forwards ran hard off the rucks and created gaps behind the fringe and wider channels. Unfortunately NYM failed to capitalize and ended up handing Media some soft scores.
