After Pretoria Police rugby team lost last week in the final moments of their Community Cup quarter final match against Rustenburg Impala they won their next two games to finally be crowned champions in the plate competition of the tournament.

A penalty by Impala in the final moments of this game helped the defending champions to win 30-28 on their home ground against the Bobbies.

After this game Impala advanced to the final of the competition, while Pretoria Police beat Wesbank to advance to the final of the plate competition. In this game Pretoria Police were far behind at the break after Wesbank ran in four converted tries. But Bobbies came back in the second half with vengeance, especially when their replacements came on and scored five tries.

The last try by Ian van Deventer was the winning try and Police won the game 36-31. Wesbank could only add a penalty to their half-time score.

The first half between Police and College Rovers in the plate final was tight as both teams threw everything at each other, which resulted in a physical battle. Each team scored only one try in this half, but two penalties by Pretoria Police to only one by College Rovers nudged them ahead on the scoreboard.

The Durban side, however, were dealt a big blow in the second half as Luciando Santos and Chris Kemp received yellow cards reducing them to 13 men late in the match. A yellow card for Pretoria Police eased the situation for the Durbanites. But despite this a superior performance by Pretoria Police, who found their rhythm on attack, allowed them to dominate the half.

Police also capitalised on their point-scoring chances which allowed them four tries to only one by College Rovers for the 37-15 victory.
