Vital Rugby Match
(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter—Copyright) i DUBLIN.) Ireland, favourite for the international Rugby championship, hopes to field an unchanged team for its vital [ match against Wales in Cardiff on March 8. Ireland, which scored an impressive 16-0 win over Scotland on Saturday, has only one injury worry—the No. 8, K. Goodall, hurt an ankle and the selectors have left his position vacant until they hear how severe the injury is.
Ireland has won three matches and Wales, which defeated Scotland, 17-3 in its only international so far this season, is the only other country with a chance of winning the championship.
The team: T. J. Kiernan (captain); A. T. A. Duggan, F. P. K. Bresnihan, C. M. H. Gibson, J, C. M. Moroney. B. J. McGann, R. M. Young; S. Millar, K. W. Kennedy, P. O’Callagan, W. J. Mcßride, M. G. Molloy, N. A Murphy, K. Goodall, J. C. Davidson .
