Despite the fact that the Army used their pack to good effect the game still stayed open, and was well worth watching.
In the Brst half the Navy threes, getting a steady supply of the ball from the scrum, were definitely on top and piled on the pressure. Had they been able to keep the ball in play for o longer period they would have scored without my trouble, but invariably it went into touch, and the Army pack took over.
With Johnson Joining in the attacks the Navy penetrated deep into the Army half where the Army were penalised on their own 25 well out on the wing. Ward converted with a lovely kick. 3-0.
From the kick-off Army swept back and almost-im- mediately they were awarded a penalty on the Navy 25 in front of the posts for picking out of the scrum. Bede-Cox converted. 3-3.
