The Test Team. Tit general opinion is that the team tomorrow will be the Test team for next Saturday, with two exceptions, jaltoy is almost certain to play halfback, and Finlayson is certain to go on the side of the scrum in place of McWilliams. It is surprising that the selection committee continues to play Carleton. On performances to date he is unquestionably a great defensive player, but not reliable in attack. Several times bsjus dropped passes when the wings were in a scoring position. Dalley has had a touch of influenza, bill will be recovered by next Saturday. It. (• surprising that Nicholls is dropped for to-morrow after his excellent perfortnanoe at Potchefstroom. He gave easily the best display of five-eighths play so far on the tour. Lucas is also eenMered unlucky not to be given a pises after his brilliance on Wednesday. Jijflayson will be rested to-morrow, haffaf played more matches than anybody 19 the team. Lindsay, on form, lai shown himself more reliable than Lilbnrne. He kicks with better length Sb 4 judgment.
