From the match programme:-

"NOTES."

"Last Mondays game with Halifax was an entertaining affair, enjoyed by players and spectators alike. In spite of the atrocious weather conditions, both sides threw the ball about, and a number of passing movements could not have been bettered on a dry day."

"Today we welcome our Newport friends, led by David Watkins. As usual, our visitors field a strong side, with an international threequarter line. Included in their pack are Brian Price and the Perrins brothers, Vic and Brian."

"We look forward to a game which will be in keeping with the best traditions of our two clubs."

"R.D."
