ALTERED PACK GIVES GOOD ACCOUNT OF

ITSELF AGAINST THE ARMY

(By "Fly Half")

With a re-organised pack which more than held its own and McElney hooking like a hero throughout the game, the Rugby Club enjoyed a splendid win against the Army at Sookunpoo on Saturday, the final score reading 8 points (one converted goal and a penalty goal) to 3 points (one try).
