8TRINITY NEVqS November 21~. .5~:iIIi~ .RUGBYPack in troubleDublin University ... 3 pts.Trinity suffered their first setbackin four games against apowerful, enthusiastic CollegiansXV in College Park last Saturday.The visitors included in theirside five Ulster inter-provincials,four of them forwards, and thiswas where the game was to belose.The start was promising, andsome incisive running by Readled to a period of pressure onthe Collegians’ line. But it wasnot long before the heavier visitingpack began to dominate, relievingthe pressure and penningTrinity in their own half. Theirfitness and superior enthusiasmenabled them to overwhelm theTrinity eight, with the resultthat our half-backs were underconstant pressure from t h eopposing back row, albeit toevery neutral observer except thereferee, they seemed to spendmuch of the game offside.Nevertheless, the few timesthat Rees was able to serve Readquickly and with room to move~n, the latter’ and Whittakershowed their attacking abilities.One of these runs led to Trinity’sonly score. Read beat his manon the outside, linked up withHall and he sent his winger, M.Boyd (who had a good game),racing clear. When challenged onthe twenty-five, he passed insideto the forwards, and only anobstruction prevented a certaintry. Rees converted the ensuingpenalty.That was to be the extent ofTrinity’s ,scoring. Chances wereoffered, but there was no placekickercapab!e of capitalising onthem. From then on it was aquestion of how long TrinityCollegians ............. 11 pts.could keep their line intactagainst incessant Collegians’attacks and they were not to bedenied. Elementary mistakesallowed them to score twice, anda fine three-quarter movementright at the end completed thevictory.The Trinity forwards were disorganisedthroughout the game.As the opponents hunted ingroups in four and five in theloose, only A. Bourke, Ross andBittenberg sould match theirferocity. One feels that moreteam practice could harness thepower’, in what is the strongestand toughest pack in College formany years, one which could laythe foundation of a much-neededwin in the Colours Match.

Playing for the first timethis season on the fast, truesurface at Londonbridge Road,Trinity were on the defensivemost of the game, and thoughthe final result was very close,they might have lost by a widemargin if St. Ita’s sharp-shootingcentreforward, P. Neville, had hitwith his usual strength, accuracyand speed.During the initial 20 minutesTrinity rarely escaped from theirown half and it was only somevery good play by full-back Stiventhat kept the teams level. Afterearlier disappointments this term,Stiven now seems to have recoveredthe immaculate formwhich made him such a goodprospect last season and he is tobe congratulated on being chosento play for Leinster " A" recently.In addition, Bagley was in tremendousform in the Trinity goaland made several fine saves, whilstMcGarrigle, at left-half, was hisusual forceful self and also madesome very telling cross-passes.Once again the forwards made anegligible contribution to theteam’s effort and the correctformation certainly did notappear to be on view last Saturday.Since there was no scoreafter 70 minutes, two further tenminute periods were played andin the first, of these Neville scoredfor St. Itas from a penalty flick,awarded after a goalmouthm~lee.WANTED, Boy and Girl to act irshort film; no previous acting ex.perience necessary.
