Pentangular Rugby · Tournament
A
Army Should Win
Today Against Weakened Navy XV
By "AXIOM"
Today's Fentangular Tournament matches highlighted by the Navy-Army clash although

the
game has admittedly lost much of its attraction through the absence of several of the Naval stars oc- casioned by sea duty.
The Navy fifteen at full strength would indeed take a lot of mastering and the absence of Kelly, Jones, Norman and Lemon among others will, I feel, be the deciding factor in the outcome of today's struggle.
The Club open the proceed- ings at Sookunpoo in their tangle with the Police and look like adding another two points to their tally.
One cannot help but admire the Folice for their
to re grit in the endeavour build with only limited talent their rugger fortunes to prewar standards. Week after week this entail facing up to much stronger teams with
greater and invariably reserve power defeat is their lot. One hopes perseverance will bring its just reward.
SHOULD EVEN MATTERS Today the back division is at thetr full strength although Captain, B. Slevin is a doubt- ful starter following a bad head mkd- knock received during a week game. Three, newcomers in MacDonald, Moxon and Saunders have boen introduced Into the pack and their addition should
matters in the even Incouts.
The Club are still without Meffan, who is being rested for another week, and J. Campbell opportunity is given another
to show his paces. This youngster hasn't as yet produced the form of which he is capable, prob- ably because he is not yet at- tuned to local conditions, but
it is good to see young blood given a trial.
In their last auting the Club pack for the first time in three years failed to hold their own and only a magnificent defence stemmed the Army onslaught in which fitness was the keynote. Visits to training sessions during the past fortnight revealed that not once during that period were the club's for- wards on full view.
LITTLE RESEMBLANCE The Navy fifteen bears little resemblance to the side which did so well in previous matches,
in tournament South, Lowe, Hallamy, Mills are as yet untried games and much will depend on their efforts as to how the Navy fare.
