Societe Generale Valley dispatched Borrelli Walsh USRC Tigers 40-0 in the KPMG Premiership Game of the Week, behind a brace of first half scores from player-coach Bella Milo.

Milo scored her first try in the sixth minute and bookended the first half with a second at 31 minutes, while captain Cait Spencer and fullback Stephanie Cuvelier both added five-pointers in the opening stanza.  

Tigers, who went from shut-out winners last week to the opposite end of the spectrum against Valley, battened down the hatches in the second, but ran out of steam late, conceding further tries to Karen So and Rebecca Thompson in the final quarter of the 40-0 loss.

After rising through the domestic ranks since their inaugural season in 2013, Bloomberg Hong Kong Scottish have notched an historic first ever Premiership win, beating Kerry Hotel Kowloon at Kings Park, 15-7.  

Scottish jumped out to a 15 – nil first half lead, helped by a fast start from from centre Chung Hau-yi who scored in the fourth minute. Hui Man-ling was the hero, scoring the eventual game-winner in the 38th minute, before blowing the doors off for good with a second strike a minute later to push the lead to 15-0.

Kowloon mustered a consolation try late in the 79th minute from centre Hannah Crisp to finish at 15-7.

SCAA First Pacific Causeway Bay Phoenix bounced back from their 61-0 drubbing at the hands of Tigers last weekend to beat Transact24 Tai Po Dragons 32-12 in what was one of the tighter contests of the round.

It was a forwards effort that put Phoenix on track with first half tries from Ho Hau-yan, Ho Pui-ki and Tsang Ching-man lifting them to a 15-7 lead at half-time. Dragons No.8 Charlotte Shea also figured for her side with a try on the 20-minute marker.

A brace of second half scores from Au King-to helped Phoenix grow the margin to 27-7 entering the last ten minutes, which produced a try to Dragons’ Iris Lam to close the gap briefly, before Chan Yan-yi’s final strike in the 78th minute ran Causeway Bay out 32-12 winners.

A tough opening schedule saw Natixis HKFC fall to a second straight loss.  After opening the season against Valley, a 37-0 loss, Football Club had to front up perennial title threats Gai Wu in a hard fought clash where they fell 29-12.

Only a try separated the sides at the break with Gai Wu having a 12-7 advantage after tries from Wong Suet-ying and Tammy Lau Nga-wun surrounded Football Club hooker Fion Got’s try in the 23rd minute.

Hong Kong veteran Lau notched her second of the game in the opening minutes of the second half, taking air out of the Club fight back early on as the hosts slipped to a 19-7 deficit.  That grew to 29-7 over the next 20 minutes as Lam Ka-wei and Abigail Chan added tries, before Eto Ding Wong clawed back a try in the dying minutes to finish at 29-12.

The results leave Valley and Falcons as the last unbeaten teams, and tied first on ten points each, with Tigers and Causeway Bay tied third, followed by HK Scottish Tai Po tied fifth and Kowloon in seventh and Football Club in eighth.
