Marcus Ramage looks to inflict more try-scoring damage in Hong Kong Premiership after Fiji blitz
The 19-year-old hopes his prolific form in the Coral Coast Sevens tournament with Hong Kong youth team translates to his club side Bloomberg HK Scottish
The transition from sevens to 15s is never easy but Bloomberg HK Scottish winger Marcus Ramage will attempt the switch on the back of a scoring blitz for Hong Kong’s youth team at last week’s Fiji Coral Coast Sevens.
The 19-year-old crossed for five tries as Hong Kong made it to the semi-finals in Fiji and he hopes to cause some headaches for Kowloon in the Old Mutual International Men’s Premiership this Saturday.
“I just loved the tournament, it was a really enjoyable week especially after getting the call-up on the Saturday [to replace the injured James Karton],” Ramage said.
“It is the first competitive sevens I have played since I left school and it was a really great tournament, the level of the local teams was so high.
“I just want to try and get my hands on the ball as much as possible and just have a run with it [against Kowloon].”
Part of the Hong Kong Rugby Union’s elite rugby programme, Ramage debuted for Hong Kong at 15s level in the 2016 Cup of Nations and has played a handful of tests since.
