South Australians Set for Red Letter Occasion in Wellington Rugby
South Australians brace for a key clash with Wellington Rugby Union as a young, sturdy local pack faces a weighty challenge. Veteran Loyd Bullock must marshal experience to expose weaknesses, while captain W Scott leads a strong breakaway unit and A Marks backs him. Wellington relies on speed and solid defense to offset inexperience, with Col Hansford and Ken Sleeman shaping the backline. The curtain raiser features Petersham Juniors versus Wellington Juniors, as Wellington Second XV line up for Monday’s match.
