11th April, 1953. Waratahs A-grade won the club's first Premiership in an epic game against Easts at the Armidale Sportsground, played in two distinct halves and with changes in fortunes almost too unbelievable to accept as truth. Yet here is the tale, as reported in the Armidale Express and told to Peter Langston by Milton Milligan, who played in the game. Don Paul's 13-44 on the second day, is one of the most remarkable bowling performance ever seen in an Armidale Final and Waratahs win against the odds, probably the club's greatest achievement.
