1j2 time Mr. Girdlestone changed places with Landvoigt II,
who had to mark a man just about twice his weight.
Right through the second half Neuenheim showed
market improvement in every department, keeping the
ball in their opponents 25. Here some scrums now
formed in which Follit was conspicnous by dribbling play.
Pia}' remained in our opponents 25 for some time. Mr.
Garrod, alwa}'s on the ball was now especially con-
spicious and O'Flynn I shortly had an excellent attempt
for another try. The Neuenheim play generally being
exceptionally good and smart. The opponents 3/4 s were
well marked and unable to get away, the tackling being
good and well timed and their halves were unable to
provide openings for their s/4s. About 10 minutes before
the end the game became fast, and often Frankfurt
pressing. The ball getting out of the scrum only
to be pounced upon and held. Relief for a moment
was afforded by a dribble on the part of Forster but Reitz
getting possession of the ball eluded the back only to
drop the ball forward on crossing the line. The referee
thought he fell on it and thus the 4 th try was scored
and converted. Frankfurt still pressed but were repulsed
every time and thus the whistle went leaving them a
good victory by 4 goals to one.
It was a pleasant game. During the second half
the team played well. After Mr. Hill and Mr. Garrod,
Follit and Christie were conspicnous amongst the for-
wards. Stooks played well in the loose and Owen
showed improvement. The 3 quarters were weak,
Maclean never had a chance. Landvoigt II marked his
man in commendable fashion especially during the second
half. O'Flynn I all through played a good game, his
drop kicks at goal were proper play under the circum-
stances. Dickie kicked beautifuly but should stop a rush
and fall on the ball. The collaring generally was good
and was much better than on the pact of our opponents.
