GHA progressed to the second round at this year’s Melrose 7s before once again losing out to the eventual winners. On this occasion it was English Premiership side Harlequins who thwarted GHA’s ambitions, they were knocked out at the same stage last season by PRO 12 outfit Edinburgh Rugby.
GHA had earlier defeated Premiership club Hawick in convincing fashion with a 35 to 7 victory but could not reproduce the same clinical finishing in round 2. Nevertheless, it was a great effort from the boys at the home of rugby 7s.
