UBCOB Ravens – November 2025
Ravens Defend Home Turf: Ravens 36 – Pride 9
Report by Peter MacDonald
A soggy November morning gave way to a dry afternoon and some good rugby for the players and stalwart fans at Jericho. The Ravens dominated possession for the first 25 minutes tallying two tries the first through Noah Bain beating his man outside and sending a grubber across the line to be touched down by Mark Wandeto and the second a Joe Locke line break and pass to Jake Tierney who also grubbered and then jackalled to regain possession for Cole Keffer who jinked about and dove in for a 14-3 Ravens lead.

Canada v Georgia – November 2025
Canada Fall to Georgia 38-17: Matt Oworu Puts in Solid Performance for Canada
Canada can take some solace from their never give up attitude but the match was over by 53′ when Georgia were up 31-3. Again the Canada backline didn’t have much to show, the forwards couldn’t consistently break the gain line and often went backwards. Canada had to resort to a kicking game which netted them some territory gains and kept Georgia in their own end. When Georgia decided to start running the ball back it caused some problems for the Canadian defence. The Georgia winger, #14 Shalva Aptsiauri, scored 3 tries and set up a fourth with an offload at the goal line. Canada’s scrum was under pressure during the match and gave up some crucial penalties.
