"Why not move Strachan up to the wing, and put somebody else back instead of him? Strachan is a good wing." Trevor shook his head. "No. There's nobody good enough to play back for the first. We mustn't risk it." "Then I suppose it must be Rand-Brown?" "I suppose so." "He may do better than we think. He played quite a decent game today. That try he got wasn't half a bad one."

Then we will have lunch and go for a walk, you, I, and Strachan, if you like."
