In their long history the Scottish Club Championship is an honour that has so far eluded Edinburgh Wanderers. Their opponents today, West of Scotland, have been runners-up for the past two years. At the moment the clubs are first and second respectively, so the result of today's match is all-important.
Both teams are noted for the size and strength of their forwards and while the Glasgow side, 'West,' include the talents of Scottish International forwards Gordon Brown and Sandy Carmichael, the Wanderers pack is led by the veteran ex-Scots back row forward John Douglas. With so much at stake and two evenly balanced sides this is looked forward to as one of the great club contests of the season.
