From The Record (1980):
St. Ignatius', who took the lead [in the GPS point score] through our defeat of Shore, were about to receive some of the same form displayed the previous week. Neither the home ground, nor the huge crowd for the "Centenary Year", could save lggies from their fate. After a bustling opening, High asserted their superiority with an incredible back line try, scored by Blake Veverka and converted by Mark Danckert. After launching several more penetrating attacks, Rob Fetherstone dived in to score on the other wing. The massacre continued with lggies saving some face by scoring, yet not matching the power of High. High won 16-4.Original MediumOtherCollectionRugby videosKeywordsWhat’s new
