A decade after the first Seoul Survivors tour to

Guangzhou, the 2010 edition of epic rugby tours

was nothing short of spectacular. As normal with a

Yellow Sea Cup tour, the weekend consisted of

three parts: the trip, the match and the nonsense.

The trip was short and sweet, the Survivors flying

from Incheon on Saturday, April 24 at 9:30am and

returning on Sunday, April 25 at 10:20 pm. De-

spite the briefness of the visit, all had heaps of fun.

New nicknames were coined and a few more fa-

mous tour quotes added to the historical “Seoul

Survivors‟ Library of Quotes.” Captain Simon

Walsh earned the nickname “SMS” or “Seventy-

Minute Simon”, after another spell in the sin bin

whilst the “Gray Captain” adds “Black Betty” to

his growing list of monikers. The quote of the tour

was added by none other than the “Gray Captain”

himself: when asked about the previous night of

fun, Jeff Barg stated in a disgusted tone of voice

“that the place was 95% „ladies of the night‟.” In

reply to the rookie‟s statement, Ted “The Gray

Captain” stated with happiness, “I loved that

place.” You can take Ted out of Manila but you

can‟t take Manila out of Ted.

Now, let‟s look at the match. The Survivors started

the match in the first half with 15 players and were

lucky to end the match with 15. In the first half, the

Survivors went into the lead with a wonderful try

by Hikaru “Hiro” Tamoto and a fingertip score by

Jacob “Waterboy” Leonard. The Survivors also

added to their first half score with a penalty from

the deadly boot of Newton Thompson.

After playing 10 minutes without the pitch captain,

the Survivors finished the first half with a 15 to 5

lead over the Rams, who clawed one back through

one of their People‟s Liberation Army (PLA)

players. The second half was a different story

(Continued on page 2)

2009’s clash between the Oakwood Seoul Survivors and the Guangzhou Rams was a one-sided af-

fair at Jamwon. The end result was 71-0 in the locals’ favour.

By Kurt Taogaga

10-8, those two simple numbers have

haunted the Survivors since early last

year. The margin of two points was all

that stood between the Survivors and

raising the Yellow Sea Cup in triumph

for the first time since the inaugural

year in 2005.

10-8 will become a catch cry for the

2010 team. For the young Survivors

squad, those two numbers represent in

basic form the age-old adage; „close but

no cigar.‟

The score line represents disappoint-

ment and heartbreak. That the game

took place early in last year‟s season

and still allowed for a mathematical

chance of YSC victory came as no

consolation to 2009‟s crop of players.

This year, the black and greys will look

to put the result beyond a shadow of a

doubt using a mobile forward pack

combined with some very large backs

to tire the Hairy Crab‟s defence. The

precision boot of Newton Thompson

and the bullocking running of Mona

Tumamao should see the Survivors

exploit any weakness in the backline.

The Survivors have had a number of

close games against Shanghai in recent

memory, last year‟s slim margin being

one of the most outstanding.

It was only the final acts of the game

that sealed Seoul‟s fate in 2009. Two

penalty chances went begging that

would have given the Survivors victory

by the slimmest of margins.

The Survivors will want to use last

year‟s result as motivation for the up-

coming encounter at Apgujeong‟s Jam-

won Rugby Pitch.

The black and greys remain unbeaten at

their home ground at 15s and will de-

fend that record this Saturday, May

29th.

The Seoul lads know that in order to be

true Yellow Sea Cup champions this

year they have to beat the top side in the

competition and that team has un-

doubtedly been the Shanghai Hairy

Crabs for the last few seasons.

There‟s no lack of motivation in this

match and the stakes are extremely high

for both sides, with the winner expected

to continue on and become the 2010

holder of the YSC trophy. Though,

Beijing might have a thing or two to say

about that later in the year, with the

Survivors travelling there to make their

claim at the championship.

Survivors gear up for epic Shanghai clash

altogether for the Survivors. The Rams

started the second half with 15 unan-

swered points. With the Survivors down

20-15, the forwards duly took over the

field. Thompson added an extra penalty

kick and the conversion to rangy lock

Rico Colón‟s game-winning try. After

many ups and downs, the Survivors

found a way to come out on top with a

score of 25-20. The man of the match

for the Survivors was none other than

Rico Colón. The Rams‟ man of the

match went to Frenchman Cyrille Guil-

lot. Special thanks go out to David

“Junior” Barnaby, John Goddard, and

Junior‟s friends Geoff Lam and Rob

Dickie for making their way to the

game and helping the Survivors secure

a victory. Another big “cheers” goes out

to the Guangzhou Rams and Hooley‟s

Bar for a wonderful after party. I‟m

pretty sure that with all the comple-

mentary beer no one remembered the

rest of the evening. As for the nonsense

on tour, you should save some money

and make sure you go on the next tour.

What goes on tour stays on tour.

Seoul vs. Guangzhou (Continued from page 1)

By Kurt Taogaga

The Seoul Survivors, in conjunction

with the Seoul Sisters, journeyed across

the peninsula to the small town of Gumi

in Gyeongsangbukdo, 40 minutes north

-west of Daegu. A packed bus left Itae-

won‟s Hamilton Hotel at 6:30am to

deliver the intrepid players to their

destination. The Gumi rugby club

played host to a few 10s matches be-

tween the hosts and the visiting teams

from the big smoke, who were sur-

prised to discover that the pitch for the

day held true to the rural setting of the

game. Fording a small stream and

making a path through vegetable

patches isn‟t the usual way Survivors

travel to rugby games. Playing on that

wonderfully rustic field, however, only

illustrated the desire of the two sides to

play rugby in any conditions for the

simple love of the game. Also in atten-

dance were a few players from Mavrik

Jeon‟s Busan Bulls, who are attempting

to form their own squad in the southern

port city. The Sisters added to the

weekend‟s action with a demonstration

match of women‟s 7s that illustrated

how far they‟ve come in recruiting new

members into their club.

The Survivors predictably dominated

proceedings, firstly against a Gumi side,

then a combined Gumi/Busan team.

The games were a perfect opportunity

to develop rugby in Gumi who are fast

becoming Korea‟s rising expatriate star.

The Gumi club originally started off as

a touch team playing in the Seoul tour-

naments in 2008 and 2009. The lure of

contact rugby proved too much for

many of her players and through the

efforts of some dedicated folk down

south have managed to put together a

very competitive 10s side, finishing

second only to the Survivors in the

recent Korea 10s tournament in Seoul.

After the Asian 5 Nations match in

Gyeongsan, the Gumi club hosted a

great party at their clubrooms, the

Waegook Cook. New rugby friendships

were forged and old ones renewed.

Thanks to Derrick of the Waegook

Cook for his hospitality and also to

Willie Sproule and Wietsche Bresler

for their organisation of the field and

the games.

themselves unlucky to drop a few games

that they should have won. They will un-

doubtedly look to improve upon their last

result, especially seeing they will host the

next tournament in early July.

After losing their kit in a previous jaunt to

Seoul, the Knights sported a new uniform

but were unable to capitalize on a good 15s

buildup against Jeonnam and the Killer Bs.

The Knights will look to knock off Korea

University and claim a spot on the podium

at home next time.

The Gumi Barbarians provided the closest

competition for the Survivors A team in

Seoul. The Barbarians have managed to

form a core squad in their hometown com-

plemented by expatriate players from

around the southern end of the peninsula to

bolster their ranks and their likelihood of

knocking over the top dogs.

Gumi‟s closest match came against the

Korea University squad and the roots of a

healthy rivalry between the two teams were

sown in their playoff for second spot. It was

an electric match that saw the Barbarians

eventually run out victors and consigning

the Tigers to third spot.

The Barbarians have a handy roster of

players to choose from, including livewire

halfback Victor Yang and long-distance

Survivor player Joshua “Bumbles” Pearce.

Recently, the country boys have also se-

cured the services of ex-Survivor John

Bresler, increasing their competitive edge in

the league.

The Jeonnam Aliens had the furthest to

travel in order to partake in this tournament.

Bringing only ten players from the deep

south, they were always going to be on the

By Kurt Taogaga

The Korea 10s League kicked off at the

home of the Seoul Survivors, Jamwon

Rugby Pitch on May 8th, bringing together

six teams from around the country to enjoy a

festival of rugby action. Involving both

expatriate and Korean teams, the tourna-

ment is meant to build bridges between

various rugby communities throughout the

peninsula and foster the growth of the game.

In a country where our sport receives little

to no official support, especially for expats,

the organisers saw an opportunity to seize

the reins and formulate a plan to develop

rugby on their own terms.

The call came back from all over the penin-

sula that interest existed in setting up a

league to be held in various Korean cities

throughout the year. The 10s format is a

popular one in Asia, allowing for smaller

expatriate communities to assemble enough

players to put together a team and compete.

The Cheongju

Knights finished

in fourth place at

the recent Korea

10s League round

in Seoul. Lead by

fiery Aussie cap-

tain James Nielsen,

the Knights felt

The Cheongju Knights host the next 10s tournament on July 3rd.

The Gumi Barbarians and the Jeonnam Aliens clash at Jamwon.

Round 1 - Seoul back foot and managed

to enlist all of the avail-

able mercenaries to

supplement their num-

bers.

They would have been

unhappy not to come

away with a win from

Seoul but showed

enough courage and determination to suggest

that they could still threaten the middle of the

table once they get their full squad back on

line.

The southern boys were missing key organ-

iser Rob Julien at first five and many of their

hulking forward pack. The return of key

players and the availability of more players in

tournaments closer to home will bring the

Killer Bs into their sights as they look to

climb the ladder. Their match with the Survi-

vors B squad yielded only a five point margin

at 5-0. They can take heart in a fair effort far

from home and build on their Seoul appear-

ance to become true contenders.

Korea University were reluctant partici-

pants in this competi-

tion despite coming

runners-up at last

year‟s MCST 10s at

Yonsei. The organis-

ers aim to bring Korean university teams into

the fold and become an inclusive competition

for all those who would like to enjoy rugby,

not just expatriates.

KU‟s acid test came in their final match of the

day, where they lost a tight game to Gumi to

hold onto third place and still gain a foot on

the podium. Hopefully, this encouraging

result entices the Tigers to see the league

through to its conclusion.

The true test of Korea University in this 10s

league will be if they decide to leave Seoul

and travel to the other tournaments planned

for cities around the country. Travel will be

necessary to accrue points over the course of

the series but if they were hesitant to play in

their own hometown, one wonders of they

can continue to be a key player in the future?

If they do decide to take this series seriously,

they could become a true force to be reckoned

with, given their natural flair, fitness and pace.

The Seoul Survivors were the runaway suc-

cess of the Seoul tournament and are the hot

favourites to win the league outright. How-

ever, the Seoul boys will be aware of the

Barbarians breathing down their neck and

the fitness and pace

of the KU Tigers.

The coaching team

will be happy with

the clinical nature

that the A squad

dismantled oppo-

nents at Jamwon,

finding gaps at will,

regaining their own

kickoffs and using

their deadly backs to

open up defences.

Seoul‟s forwards

also boast a brace of

mobile hunters,

including captain Simon Walsh and dynamo

Kenneth Park, well-suited to the 10s game.

Veteran Brian Bruckman ended the day

with five tries as did firecracker centre Na-

than Atkins, illustrating the Survivors‟ will

to attack from anywhere through both the

front five and the back five.

The SS Killer Bs were solid performers

early in the day, taking a win against the

Jeonnam Aliens in their first match, 5-0.

Unfortunately, the loss of the team‟s most

experienced players, Roddy Bancroft and

Jono O‟Sullivan, saw their fortunes take a

turn for the worse as injuries mounted and

inexperienced players were shuffled into

key positions. Enthusiasm and endeavour

gave out in the end

to more hardened

and organised oppo-

nents. The Killers Bs

finished the day in

5th place with one

win and four losses.

The Killer Bs will

now look to knock

off the next tourna-

ment‟s hosts, the

Cheongju Knights,

who came one place

above them in the

Seoul leg as well as

reduce the deficit

they suffered at the hands of their brother

team, the Survivors. The A squad ran

rampant throughout most of the tourna-

ment but particularly spared nothing

against the Killer Bs, already seriously

weakened through injury. Grabbing more

wins at the tournament and keeping the

score respectable against the As will be a

huge motivation at the next leg.

The Survivors two squads clash in the Seoul leg of the Korea 10s League.

Asian 5 Nations concludes, Korea

relegated to 1st Division By Kurt Taogaga

The HSBC Asian 5 Nations is finished

and the news is all gloomy for Korean

rugby. Their fifth place finish has seen

them drop from the Top Five into the 1st

Division (second tier) alongside Singa-

pore, Malaysia and the yet-to-be-

decided winner of the 2nd Division. Sri

Lanka will be promoted into the Top 5

next year, taking Korea‟s place and

finishing a remarkable rise for the Indian

Ocean islanders.

The result is a rather ignominious end to

the Koreans‟ 2010 campaign, which

started the year with the slogan “World

Cup 2011”, boldly flaunting the KRU‟s

intentions to be the second Asian repre-

sentative in New Zealand next year. The

Korean ruling body will have to recon-

sider their lofty ambitions in preparation

for digging themselves out of the murky

depths of the A5N‟s second tier compe-

tition.

Korea vs. Hong Kong

Expecting a tougher outing against the

Koreans, Hong Kong halfback, Tim

Alexander, was scathing in his assess-

ment of the visitors. “Mentally, they‟re

not the strongest side you‟ll ever play”,

he said, illustrating his team‟s strategy of

holding out the Koreans defensively

until their discipline and cohesion began

to wither.

Once the Koreans showed signs of

weakening, Hong Kong were then able

to take advantage with their speedy

backs, running out to a 32-8 result. The

Korean campaign starting off on the

wrong foot in a surprisingly heavy defeat

to the Hong Kong squad.

Korea vs. Japan

Things weren‟t going to get much better

as Korea Rugby Union President, Choi

Tae-Won, could have been forgiven for

thinking that their recent match against

Japan in the Asian 5 Nations was being

played in hostile territory rather than the

newly re-purposed Gyeongsan Rugby

Stadium. A chorus of boos rang out from

the supporters in response to Korea‟s

decision to knock over a late penalty

despite being 73-10 down. A little more

fortitude and courage was demanded by

the mainly expatriate crowd, many of

whom had travelled long distances to

Gyeongsan to watch the match. The

clash of the top two sides in Asia did

little to confirm Korea‟s status as likely

repechage challengers in Uruguay.

Korea was outmuscled and outfoxed by

John Kirwan‟s „Brave Blossoms‟ and

look likely to finish well down the ladder

in the 2010 Asian 5 Nations having

already lost to Hong Kong. The home

side will rue missed penalty chances and

a yellow card in the first half to halfback

Pak Wan-Yong that denied them any

chance of staying in contact with the

Japanese when the match was still

evenly balanced.

On the other hand, Japan validated their

status as Asia‟s sole superpower and

world top 20 ranking with a clinical

second half display lead by New Zealand

import Ryan Nicholas. Nicholas slotted

penalties, goals and set up his outside

winger, Kosuke Endo, for five tries.

Korea vs. Arabian Gulf

Perhaps Korea‟s worst defeat came at

the hands of surprise package, the Ara-

bian Gulf. The Gulf side, which will be

replaced by a United Arab Emirates

team next year, were the recently pro-

moted team from 2009 and expected to

finish well down the ladder but, in the

stifling Middle Eastern heat, managed to

cause a massive upset and send Korea

reeling into a possible relegation match,

to the tune of 21-19.

Korea vs. Kazakhstan

The most recent game, held at Incheon‟s

Munhak Stadium and dutifully attended

by a contingent of Survivors, shaped up

to be a do-or-die match for the Koreans.

Either team could finish in fifth place if

they failed to win and/or secure a bonus

point from the encounter.

The May 22nd showdown, in drizzly

conditions, went in Korea‟s favour for

the first twenty minutes. The home side

raced to a 17-0 lead but, as they have

demonstrated in past matches, were

unable to keep their focus and allowed

Kazakhstan back in the game through

hard-running superstar Anton Rudoy

and the boot of Maxim Lifontov. The

visitors ran out eventual winners, 32-25.

Survivors’ Mail Bag The Emu brings a box of crayons and his own brand of irreverent humour to the Maybe Next

Weekend newsletter this month.. Remember to send your questions to:

survivorsmailbag@gmail.com

Is Ted Gray really Ed Gay? - Longtime reader, first time writer, Quagmire.

A very interesting question posed by young Quagmire, although I am not a Forensic

Archeologist, I will do my best to answer! Firstly, the last time Ed Gay was seen in Ko-

rea, he appeared on the cover of an English expat magazine many years ago. Ed Gay was

interviewed and his slick and suave insights on Korea and life got the masses (the Sur-

vivors) whipped up into a huge hysteria. The magazine cover popped up all over Korea,

well mainly Pub Scrooge, defiled with comments of adulation and the like. From that

day on, Ed Gay has gone into hiding!

Sherlock Holmes would look for clues and comparisons to find the evidence and I‟m

going to start off with the basics. Ed Gay oozed a Fonzie-like skill, which I believe was

once possessed by Ted. He was once known to click his fingers and the hordes of Koreans

would sally up to his side, duke boxes would spurt “Whoa Black Betty Bam

Balam” and black balls would sink (unless in Kurt’s hand). Black leather jack-

ets, tight blue jeans and collared shirts curling under the aroma of dense manly

aftershave, there‟s links here. They both rode exquisite machines of power and loved to

feel their slick backed hairdos flow ever so slightly in the wind as they left the cops

behind. Nowadays, Ted wears a helmet in winter. I‟m sure Ed Gay would shun such

weakness.

Ed Gay was multi-talented: a Professor, TV Presenter, Author, Cavalier Rugby Player

and All Nations Player. Now Ted Gray had a very similar resume but alas the now

Dictator enjoys more relaxed sports such

as Pub Quizzes and well you‟d have to ask

him about the rest! So the line starts to

blur between the two! I believe I shall get to

the root of this perplexing puzzle by donning

my charlatan private investigator‟s costume

and I'll hunt down the missing ED GAY and

indeed see if he too can beat Chuck Norris

with a flash of the Dictator’s SMILE! This

act alone will determine if Ed Gay is in-

deed Ted Gray, the Immortal Dictator!

Hold on to your

crutches, Quagmire. The EMU is on the job!

In early April, our mates from Busan

were doing it tough in the university

Spring League, bringing up the question

of whether we could foot it there. Rich-

ard Jang went to catch the action.

By Richard Jang

On a sunny Monday afternoon, true

Korean-style dirt rugby kicked off at the

Onsu rugby grounds with a massive

crowd of parents that made the match

look more like a midget hockey game

than a university rugby match. With all

that behind, Pusan National University

(PNU) Eagles marched out to the dirt

pitch to play their biggest match of the

Korean Rugby Union Spring League

against Wonkwang University. With

Wonkwang University recruiting rugby

players from the high school academy

system, the size difference stood out,

but the game showed size isn‟t such a

big factor.

After the ritual singing of school songs,

the Eagles kicked off and from the first

ruck of the game, their lanky tighthead

pushed back the big Wonkwang for-

wards and forced a turnover. The Eagles

spun the stolen ball wide and, just be-

fore the line, the ball was knocked on.

First scrum of the match, the PNU Ea-

gles were at least fifty kilograms under-

weight. The size difference was obvious

from the far sideline but the Eagles

wheeled the scrum and got the ball back.

From the successive scrum, PNU gath-

ered the ball from the number 8 and the

first five put through a drop kick to get

on the board, 3-0, to the Eagles.

PNU played the first twenty minutes

deep in the Wonkwang zone but they

failed to execute their chances, despite

numerous phases of play. The experi-

enced Wonkwang side held firm and

exploited the Eagles‟ greenness with an

intercept on the wing. They ran seventy

metres downfield to score a try under

the post. From there, the tide had turned.

PNU still dominated forward play but

numerous knock-ons killed their mo-

mentum. Wonkwang‟s first five was sin

-binned late in the first half for repeated

high tackles and PNU put the gas down

to score a try before half time. A couple

more PNU knock-ons and an advantage

call saw Wonkwang score the last try of

the half.

The second half saw some more fierce

rugby with some massive tackles and big

scrums. PNU came out flat in the second

spell, allowing two quick tries from the

start. With a long huddle at the end zone,

they re-gathered and started pushing

hard again. PNU scored their first try of

the match when the first five chipped the

ball into the corner and the prop ran into

gather the ball before the Wonkwang

backs did. Wonkwang looked shaky

from there on, allowing PNU to rampage

around the field. But their finishing

touch needed some refining, knocking

the ball on two metres from the line and

failing to score on a 3-on-1 chance. With

five minutes on the clock, the Wonk-

wang number 10 was sent off for re-

peated high tackles. PNU gathered to

push harder, and the last try of the match

came in the classic orthodox style of

using numbers out wide. PNU wing

finished with a twenty metre run into the

corner of the field for a try. Final score:

13-25. But the score doesn‟t reflect the

game itself by any means. It was one

great game to watch on a nice sunny

spring afternoon.
