Not the greatest of starts for biddy with players strolling in late and not turning up preparations were limited.

with skipper sam suspect and no 9 archie raymondo running the show and the mongrels attacking at every opportunity it wasn’t long before dirty harry lowden took a pass off vaseline to score his first try for the club.
