Hogs rugby club dominance in the Sevens circuit is far from over as they powered to yet another win over the weekend. In the first edition which was held last weekend, it was a Hogs affair in the final as Hogs 1 and 2 faced each other.

On Saturday, Hogs 1 entertained Canon Jaguars in the men’s final winning the encounter 19-10. They scored five tries while Jaguars, who were the organisers of the tournament only scored two tries.
