ing the halfbacks. Anthony ' s strength was in covering in defence and in his tackling, though, on occasion, he surprised us all with his running skill. Stuart Wright and David Fullerton were an effective link at halfback with Stuart scoring a number of cheeky tries. Todds Sigfstead, Chris Cooper and later, his replacement, Miles Lawrence, were solid in the centre, especially Todds who never played at any level below total commitment. David Howell-Jones, Angus Walker and Cam Barker, were effective wings and Cam showed his versatility by playing fullback when Paul Robinson was not available, and was also our main place kicker.

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. John had a particularly good season, always near the ball and always pressur- SHawnigAN Ij TtH 27
