Raffles vs. St Andrew’s

Posted by noelbynature

Peter Chan gives a blow-by-blow account of the 1972 match of the KIWI cup between Raffles Institution and St Andrew’s School, both powerhouses in rugby. I predict this post will fuel some school spirit!


One of the memorable matches still very “fresh in my mind” was the 1972 series. Raffles lost the first-leg at Grange Road by a score of 7-9. That year was a big fiasco for Raffles because we lost the other crowns – the 7s and 15s national championship. The previous year we won all 3 including the KIWI Cup. St Andrew’s School was riding high after beating Singapore American School in both competitions.

Who wins in the end? Read more about the exciting match, and the KIWI cup over the years on Good Morning Yesterday.
