With three weeks to go to the Varsity game Cambridge coach Tony Rodgers decided that his pack needed to sharpen up their scrummaging. Having consulted Phil Keith-Roach of Rhino, Cambridge decided to purchase a Dictator scrummaging machine to help their final preparations for the game. In front of a crowd of 35,000 they won a thrilling 22-16 victory over the more fancied Oxford side. In particular the Cambridge dominance of the scrum was noticeable and a key contributory factor in their win. A lesson for all!
