CITY V. GRAFTON TO-MORROW
[ The last series of the first round of the Rugby Union championships will be played at Potter's Paddock to-mor-row afternoon. Great interest is shown in the meeting of Grafton and City, as neither of these teams have yet suifered defeat. City, however, have played a draw so that Grafton is at the present moment leading for the championship. Both teams are strong in both back and forward divisions, and a very closely contested game is anticipated. To-morrow's play will be more than usually interesting, as the decisions arrived at by the recent conference of referees are to be brought into force. Grafton intend playing the three half-back game. The following is the composition of the rival teams: —
Grafton: Campbell, Hay, Brady (2) llenwick, McGregor, Thomson, McKenzie, Taylor, Trcvartheu, Gunson Kiernan, Cucksey, lledley, Cittos.
City: Stevens, Asher, Smith, Magee, Thomas, Young, Stanaway, Brown, McMillan, G„ Tyler, Nicholson, McGuire, Scott, Ho'nclla, W. Tyler, Porteous.
