The 145-year-old community club was left in ruins after an electrical fault caused a blaze in the early hours of Monday morning, wiping out decades of history. Among the irreplaceable items lost were historic jerseys dating back to the 1920s, a treasured Barbarians Springbok head from 1961 and youth caps from some of the club's most distinguished players.
