Narrow Loss Against Poneke.

Although the game was not of a very high standard, the closeness of the score, 14-13. made the match interesting right up to the final whistle. Varsity actually had a seven point lead about fifteen minutes before the end of the game. Varsity's points came from three tries by Dean, Buddie, and Stewart, the latter making a very nice interception, scoring between the posts. Two of the tries were converted by Larkin.

The forwards as a pack played very well, particularly Eade. Hansen and Burke, who were all willing toiler. Stewart showed up in several excellent runs, and Kissel's line-kicking was of a high standard. The backs, however, on the whole, showed a lack of combination and anticipation.
