"A Big Thank You to McWilliams Directors Port Wine (Barron Valley Special) to help us get our second wind after half time during those torrid first 30 minutes whenever we played and beat Mareeba High. I think I scored a try.It was the only way to find out the meaning of the word "SWIG" as we could not find it in the dictionary............anywhere!!!!!!! The corn liquor brewing in the Chem Lab was not ready, just as well as we had experienced a minor explosion........thanks Clarry."
