Thomas’ College, Mt. Lavinia at the Bogambara Stadium in a Singer League inter-school rugby fixture today.Trinity who are moving ahead in fine fettle with two consecutive wins should have the edge over the visiting Thomians in regaining the Canon. R. S. de Saram trophy. The game that was originally scheduled to be played at Pallekele Rugby Stadium was later shifted to the Bogambara Stadium. .Trinity who opened the season on a victorious note defeating Isiaptana College 29 points to 10 went on to maintain their winning streak when they walloped their home town rivals Vidyartha College by 60 points to 9.Given the current form of the Lions, plus, the home advantage, they go out as the favourites in overpowering the lads from Mount Lavinia.On the other hand, S. Thomas’ who opened the season on a similar note defeating St. Anthony’s College, Katugastota 14 points to 10 came out with some forceful rugby to make the defending champions St. Peter’s College  kiss the dust (22-19) at the end of an exciting game which could have gone either way.Although the Trinitians did not have a fixture last week, the Thomians had a shocker of a game against Dharmaraja College when they had to come from the jaws of defeat to snatch victory in a game which had a close finish of 22 points to 20.Recent records show that S. Thomas’ who lost by a margin of 12 points to nil in 2006 went onto secure the trophy after a closely contested game last year in which the Thomians triumphed by 19 points to 15.Thus, the Thomians led by their number eight, Rohitha Rajapaksa should come out with a different trick today, if they are to overpower the Lions led by their flanker, Milinda Gunawardana.The junior under 18 game played for Norman Walter trophy is scheduled to commence at 3.30 pm while the 1st XV game kicks off at 4.30 pm.Trinity College Props- Mohamed Riyazy, Isharath Singalashana, Hooker- Damith Dissanayake , Locks- Hasindu Dassnayake, Rishan Vidanagamage , Flankers- Milinda Gunawardana(captain), Idris OmarNumber eight- Ruzni Ramazeen, scrum half- Adeeb Hameed, Fly half- Abdul Fahad, wingers Vishvajith Wijesinghe, Kennan Armstrong, Centres- Arinda Bulanawewa, Shennan Armstrong, Full back- Surendra Alwis.   S.
