Well, it's Tournament time again. It is customary for the Salient Sports Editor to make an informed guess about the possible outcome as regards the Victoria sports types; so—I hereby swear, vow and promise to eat my sports page if Victoria doesn't get within ten points of the University that wins the Tournament Shield.

A welcome is extended to all visiting students, players, spectators and entertainers. Hope you all enjoy yourselves and remember that it is decidedly churlish to defeat your hosts. A special welcome to Waikato, participating in Winter Tournament for the first time ever.
