Morris Masters @ CT Greys Sat Sept 6th 2008

A valiant effort by a weakened Morris side, held the Greys scoreless for the first two of four 20 minute quarters. Unfortunately, weariness took its toll and the Greys broke through with three successive trys in the third, of which Morris could only answer with two of its own once they recovered their breath.
 
The eighty minutes of rugby was required as Connecticut had a 40 strong showing for its opener. Morris was only able to take the field with 12 of its own, thanks mostly to Cal's son and protégé, Cal - the younger.
 
Somehow we were able to convince the Greys that the boy, although only 17 or there abouts, was a very mature 17 and therefore qualified to satisfy the 35 and older rule...
 
Needless to say the youth did his father proud, and was recognized afterwards by Connecticut for his style of play and good sportsmanship. His father, being a good Irishman and parent, accepted the his son's shot in good faith.
 
In all honesty, we have rarely seen Cal so excited as when his boy got a brilliant breakaway early in the game. "RUN BOY RUN!!!" was heard several counties over. The next time you see Cal, be sure to shout the same to him in greeting. We have found that using a Forest Gump type southern accent pleases the old man best.
 
It was hot and muggy and reminiscent of New Orleans. Those of you who stayed home are jerks. We hate you.
 
There were numerous other plays and highpoints, that I will not tell you about, because you are unworthy. If you want to know more, I guess your best bet would be to ask Chappie about his assist. Andy says its the third time he's seen Craig pass in 13 years...
 
The van ride was interesting, especially the drive home (which is when the downpour really started).  I'm not going to tell you about that either, except to say Craig was very unhappy that he bought me a Redbull and Krispy Kream doughnut to keep me "focused" during the drive back.
 
If the regatta is hot and muggy - all of you that didn't make the CT run - get to play during the hottest part of the day (with no water).
 
Looking forward to abusing you
