1ST XV RUGBY 1ST XV Occasionally a season comes along that is beset by in- juries. This season was such a one and only twice were we able to field the same team. This not only made life difficult at the top, but the ripple effect was felt to an even greater degree by the 2nd, 3nd and 4th XV ' s. The playing records of these teams suffered accordingly. The 1st XV never- theless acquitted itself well. Undoubtedly, the most enjoyable game of the season was the final home fixture with St. Michael ' s.

Florian Tovstigo came in at prop to replace the injured Cottrell and did extremely well for a converted 2nd XV wing! The locks were Ken O ' Kennedy, a reliable work horse and Michael Kaye or Matt Burke, both tall, both good in the lineout, both on the lean side and both improving with each game. Alan Campbell adapted to a new game, for him, amazingly well. He will become an outstanding 8 next season. The flankers were John Krotez and Anthony Ostler, both short but tireless workers, and quick around the field.
