TO-MORROW'S RUGBY.

Old Boys And Inglewood At Stratford Should Be Bright

BOTH TEAMS ON FORM. Apart from the game of the Northern Competition leaders, Tukapa and Clifton, one of the most interesting of to-morrow's Rugby matches should be provided at Stratford, where United Old Boys will meet Inglewood. Although neither of these teams have been very successful as far as

' winning matches goes, both are capable of producing brighter football than has been provided by the leading teams in some of their matches this season. Inglewood possess a vigorous forward pack aDd their inside backs, Arnold (half) and Rumball, and Grant (five-eighths), are one of the most penetrative combinations in the Northern Division. When they played Stratford in the first game of the competition they displayed sparkling form, only the weight and speed of the Stratford forwards prevented them from maintaining their first-spell lead to win the match. Tukapa had to fight hard for a victory over the Inglewood team last Saturday, and in light of the form displayed by Old Boys in their last two matches, spectators will have every reason to expect fast, open football and a hard-fought, even game.
