THIS AFTERNOON'S RUGGER
Garrison Island v. 27 Bde. Looks Like Being Today's Best Match
Says "PAK
LO"
Today chaos reigns supreme. As far as the rugger fixture list is concerned my advice to you is to forget it completely until the Hexangular Tournament starts, as once again there have been switches of grounds and starting times left, right and centre.
There are only four games this afternoon, but each is on a different ground. The Poller and Club "B" have had to postpone their matches for the reasons given earlier on in the week, and 27 Brigade will definitely play Garrison Island at Boun- dary Street at 3.30 p.m.
