A resurgent Muruks team was evident in their performance against the Vipers yesterday at the Port Moresby Rugby League ground, winning 20-16.
The Muruks were full of class in the opening exchanges, scoring three unanswered tries, two of which were unconverted before Vipers replied with a converted try and a penalty goal to trail 8-14 into half-time.
Vipers cam back strongly in the second half to score twice to lead 16-15. Sam Maniat failed to add the extra four points. Muruks lone point came from an Andrew Sam drop goal.
The ensuing minutes to fulltime saw tit for tat as both sides desperately searching to score until Muruks did in the last five minutes but Sam again failed to convert. He made up for that with a field goal taking them to 20-16 defeating the Vipers.

Yes bro Sly,
ReplyDeletethe Muruks are just doing it now. Though many of the previous forwards and classic players have left for greener pastures. The junoirs taking their place will still maintain the "LIPILIPI SPIRIT" of the Souths.

I would share the same sentiments. The thing I like about them is their discipline and consistency especially in finals football.
