RUGBY GAME AGAINST AUSTRALIANS Selections Announced By The Committee
CLUB BEAT ARMY IN TRIANGULAR TOURNAMENT
Changes In Club XV Are Vindicated
BY WING THREE
In a rather scrappy game, which, however, was very keenly contested and.. produced occasionally flashes of clever individual play and a few good passing move- ments, the Club defeated the Army by two goals, a penalty and a try (16 points) to two goals and a try (13 points) in their final game of the Triangular series. In their previous game against the Army it will be remembered that they lost 6-3.
Lammert opened the scoring in the first half, but McLellan failed to add the major points from a difficult angle. Later the Club increased their score with a
pen. alty goal kicked by McLellan, when Hewitt, the Army scrum-half, was penalised for off- side from a scrum.

after their
reward when Goold crossed over after some very good passing. Lloyd converted. The Army fought hard from the kick-off and again slowly gained ground by a series of short rushes in which footwork was the chief factor. At this point the Club seemed to be all at sea, fum- bling and doing the wrong thing. The try which Metcalf got, while well-deserved owing to the tenacity displayed, was really a gift from an unaccountably ragged Club XV Lloyd converted to give the Army a
10-0 lead.
However the Club pulled then selves woll together and had decid edly the better of the game from then upwards. Shortly, before the interval Turner, who had just badly fumbled, recovered beauti fully to exccate a fine swerving cut through. He was backed up well by King who, receiving the pass, made a good short, run to cross over. McLellan converted to give the club the lead by 11-10.
