OUR "REPS."

«. . [To the Editor.] Sir,—lt is to bo hoped tho result of the Auckland-Wellington match will make tho selectors open their eyes and pick men,who arc showing representative form, and not men with reputations. There is too inncli of the "has been" typo in the Wellington team, and it is about time Thompson and company found this out. Mitchinson should bo dropped, and Bradley should bo given another chance in his stead. If Evonson is going to show tho nervousness of his last two big games he should also bo dropped. We want a good scoring man in the team, and wo could do worse than give Kelly a game. In the forwards. Dent must bo retained after his sterling game of Saturday. If the selectors think M'Parlano is 'better than Dent they must both go in; but I think Dent is the more .wilting worker. Another man we could do with in tho line-out and in tho loose is Cunningham. Tho team I would suggest is:—Full-back, J. Ryan; three-quarter:!, Kelly, Bradlev, Grace; five-eighths, P. J. Ryan, Kinvig; half, Roberts; forwards, Wilson (wing), Elliott, Ready, Perry, Moffit. King, Deiit, Cunningham; emergencies, M'Kcnzio. Evenson, Jl'Farlanc, and Bell. Thanking you for valuable space in your paper—l am, etc., E - B -
