In every other direction Cardif should do well. Their half-backs (although not getting any younger) are tried and trusted, and if Fred Keenor loses any of his glamour Wilson is ready to step into the centre-half position. This looks like being the strongest part of the team. although there are potentialities about the forward line, which will of Empereon, of Middlesbrough, be strengthened by the inclusion who is the only now player of note.
