SECOND TEST MATCH.

SIDES FOR SATURDAY.

NEPIA AT FULL-BACK.

The second' Test match between New Zealand and Australia will be played at Carlaw Park on Saturday, when George Nepia will make another appearance in Auckland and play at full-back for the Dominion side. The % Australians are putting a strong team in ihe field, although au absentee will be Norman, their leadiu. stand-off half-back. Beaton will play at full-back instead of Ward and on his form of yesterday it should be a good choice. The Australian forwards will have weight and experience, being similar to the six fielded in the first Tesr. last Saturday. Judging by the two matches played New Zealand haj only to wn a fair share of the set scrums a:id give their backs reasonable chances in order rr. extend the visitors. This time the selectors are playing a r"cog» : «ed hooker in Satherley; and the New Zealand bn?ks should be. seen more in action than 'nst Week. On his fine showing yesterday Mahima. the Mamikau half-back, is H ; stinetlv unfortunate in being left~m'». and a nla«e might have been found for P. fhW. wh 1 has been replaced by A. Kay,«the Ponsonby centre. Nepia wn« the obvious choice at fullback and Watene has been shifted into the forwards, where he nlaved veste-dnv Comb-"nation will be the telling facto, in a match which is being eager'v awaited.
