Under blustery skies, and a swampy pitch, the Flatliner-Heroes took the field for their second encounter with the UBC Totems at Wolfson field. The team had plenty of depth, with some surprise faces in the roster as the day progressed. The game began as it so often does for the Heroes, with the opposition piling on points. After Richmond was camped at UBC's goal line for what seemed like 20 phases, a turnover resulted in a 90 metre scamper by an opposing back who tallied in the corner. A few short moments later, poor drifting defensively led to another UBC try, this time under the posts.

With Richmond's top two teams receiving a bye, the feature game this weekend involved the revitalized, reinvigorated and rejuvinated Richmond Third Division. Now known as the Flatliner-Heroes, Richmond took the field at Klahanie against the mighty Capilano 4ths, and the game did not dissapoint. While Caps tallied three in the first half and added a penalty, Richmond was able to counter with a penalty of their own. 20 - 3 was the half time score. At the break, Richmond regrouped and rallied around the spirited play of team captain, and Godfather of the Heroes, James Tracey.

Richmond's U16 men's team hosted the lower mainland championship this past Sunday against the Capilano All Blacks. The Richmond boys were on the brink of completing a perfect season, where they had beaten the Caps in regular season in a nail-biting 10-7 victory.

After months of hard work, the anticipation of being promoted to the 2nd tier was a weight that had been lifted from the shoulders of the management, coaching staff, and players. Now all that remained was to see if we would start with an 0-1 record or a 1-0 record. The team that comes up with us the record between the two also follows them. United was 2-1 and tied with Kamloops. If they should beat us by a margin greater than 2 meant that they could come up with us in both divisions. That meant both games were important for both divisions.
