R GBY FIRST FIFTEEN The first fifteen squad did extremely' well this year. For the first time in the history of the school our first fifteen was allowed to enter the Victoria High School Rugby' League. Indeed, we worked hard and well. but fellyiust short of winning what would have been our greatest victory: The squad was not a large side. Certainly' we had some large players such as Banks, Lum, DiCastri and McCarten, but overall it could llol be considered a large. heavy' side. The scrum was effective. however: time and time again we were shoved offthe ball in the set. The loose rucks were not the scrunfs strong point, but when all eight worked together it was devastating. The three-quarter line was very good, and apart from holding onto the ball too long, thus starving the wingers, it consisted of some very' fast and talented players. Reg Moore was often seen bailing the three-quarter line out of trouble. and if necessary' was ready to tackle all the members of the opposition one after another. Bob Wright, who possessed great speed and strength. was another asset to the team, but it was a gamble as to whether or not he would play for the side each game. His white socks, however. flashed the spectators hlind at the majority' of the games. Without a doubt, Olson's kicking was essential. Many' times his penalty' kicks bailed the side out oftrouble and often won the game. Hardman was an extremely good runner. possessing a verv good dummv pass and a long side- L I 1, I mL step. He was known among fellow players to be an excellent tackler. bringing down anything which carried the ball, regardless of size or weight. Fowler and Koo suffered the fate of not receiving the ball early' in the season, however as threequarter improved in moving the ball. their speed was to rank alongside Wright's. Fowler was fast. but lacked good effective tnoves early in the season. Koo was a strong runner. but also lacked moves and was often forced out of bounds. Banks and Lum made sturdy' props and were both well experienced when it came to the sets. Bissett was a good hookerg however.without a good shove he was beaten. DiCastri was Cl2lZ7llI1g in the lineout. His height and experience werejust what the team needed in the line out. Butler was very strong and was prepared to take onthe whole opposing st rum alone. He was well experienced and his quickness and agility on the field were extremely valuable. Higgins also was quick to the loose and very' effective in smuggling the ball out of the loose. Dunbar, whose height was a great advantage, was very' good in the lineouts, especially near the try' line of the opposition. K, K5
