With Vidyartha College finally accepting the allegations brought forwards by Isipathana College, the million dollar question lies about the Under-20 Schools Rugby League Championship which is still in the balance as there seem to be no precedence with the last similar issue being in 1990 when there were no league or tournament games but friendly matches. Other issues were when Royal and Kingswood refused to play Thurstan and Dharmaraja respectively. At that incident both Royal and Kingwood were demoted.
Looking at the current issue if points are taken off for all matches played by Vidyartha there will be a whole lot of difference to the points table. If this is not done there will be issues on who else should be relegated.
On the other hand the possibility is to award the win to Isipathana who is the only party that has made a complaint as they can be awarded the win in which case Trinity and Isipathana will be equal. However Isipathana will win the league title on the basis of scoring more tries as reliable sources confirm.
Sources further say that Isipathana is not on the hunt for the league title but that should prevail as they continued to be hounded for an incident that happened in 1990. On the other hand others believe that the league title is theirs as the boys have something to be proud of eventually. Some are of the opinion that they should lay the hands on the cup and pay a tribute to coach Shamly Nawaz who was much criticized at the beginning of the season.
