BEATING THE WING FORWARD
IN
WHAT FAST PASSING CAN ACCOMPLISH
A CORRESPONDENTS LETTER
(By Rowe Harding)
London, September 22.
a recent letter, a Cardiff correspondent expressed a fear that the wing forward's de predations would wreck the hopes of good Rugby which have been raised by the presence in Wales this season of so many brilliant backs.
The letter expressed a point of view which has the approval of an overwhelming majority of Rugby followers. It seems to be the general opinion that the wing forward is an unmitigated nuisance. Certainly he makes spectacular and effective back play more difficult than it was in the days of eight solid scrum- magers. The question is, What can be done about it?
Some say the remedy is solid shoving by the opposing pack to make the wing forwards, usually referred to as “the blighters,” Well, that has been tried before without success. scrummage.
