ALL BLACKS.
QUEENSLAND GAME. State "Flattered" at Meeting Virtual Test XV. J. DICK JOINS TOURISTS. t'nited Press Association.—Copyright. (Received 2 p.m.) BRISBANE, this day. Queenslanders feel flattered because the All Blacks' selection is a virtual Test team for a State match f>n Saturday, but one of the managers, Dr. Adams, speaking at the official reception, declared that all the teams would be good. "Before we go home," he added, "our team will be the best to have represented our country."
A factor which pleased the tourists is that practically the whole side is fit, despite four matches. J. Dick, the Auckland wing three-quarter, delayed by the measles, is now with his colleagues. The managers and players are delighted with their reception so far, particularly with the large number of former Xew Zea landers who hare sought them out. The managers have selected the Queenslander. P. Barnes, to referee the Test. T. Moore will be referee to-, morrow.
