EXCELLENT FARE
FOR
RUGGER FANS THIS AFTERNOON
By "PAK LO”
The fare for rugger fans this afternoon is excellent and should provide some exciting finishes, Firstly there is the powerful Army side versus Club, a much awaited game, and this will be followed by the first appearance this season of the RAF team against the Police.
In the Army side Colling as Juran at full back, and Black- burn comes in on the left wing. whist the remainder of the backs remain unchanged. There mre also a few changes in the pick with Thomas returning yet again and Bell taking over in place of Fisher.
The Club have only one change in the forwards Robertson appers in place elf Hargrovta but behind Wa serum there are many changes and switches.
