Last week’s Golden Oldie photo was of the Southern Monaro Rugby Union Representative Team taken in 1922. It was of no surprise that there was nobody around that recognised anyone in the photo even though there are quite a few recognisable names (see photo page 8).

The team were from back left: W J Stewart (selector), C Davis, A Williams, J Helmers, E Irvin and C Tracey (selector). Third row: P J Smith (secretary), V Stewart, E Rumph, G Dunsmore, George Kimber, V Moreing, C Jeanette and J Irvin (treasurer). Second row: W Warburton, A Scanes, S V Egan (captain), EG Shaw (president), H Maxwell (vice captain) and H Cole. Front row: N McNee, W Robbie and G. Stewart.
The team was put together to play a metropolitan team from Sydney that were touring the south. They had mixed results however there was some controversy over their last game against Cooma where they defeated Cooma by one point scored four minutes after the game should have finished.
This weeks Golden Oldie is of Bombala High School students Form 3 taken in 1966. Do you recognise anyone?
