Originally scheduled as a league game but played as a friendly due to conditions. Proudfoot set up Freebairn (W) for the opener (10) then Galloway got the 2nd. Proudfoot scored from a scrimmage (55) then a long shot by Harvey was “nicely negotiated through by Paul” (GT). Murray put the seal on an emphatic win.
