T-U-V His contribution to the club's 1918 grand final defeat of Collingwood was significant and decisive, as it was he who made the surging run down the wing that culminated in a kick to the goal square which enabled Chris Laird to soccer the winning goal.

Our school history lessons covering the duration of the Crimean War (1854-56) generally focused on the political background, the death or glory, the suffering of the diseased and wounded, the early beginnings of professional nursing, but they certainly didn't mention that the conflict saw the birth of rugby within the British Army. www.army.mod.uk /aru/history   (2392 words)
