The photograph showcases a formidable group of athletes, standing tall with unwavering focus. At the back row, we see influential figures such as Fergus Slattery, Ginger McLoughlin, Donal Lenihan, Moss Keane, Willie Duggan - all renowned for their immense contributions to Irish rugby. Alongside them are Mr Alan Welsby from RFU serving as touch-judge and Mr J. A. F Trigg as referee.
