Their opponents looked small in comparison with the Ail Blacks. Nevertheless they started promisingly and there should have been an early score from a good passing movement, but Mitchell dashed across and saved. The attackers were apparently over excited when on the eve of a try. Micl-Dis-tricts continued surprisingly well, keeping the All Blacks defence busy, although the visitors were apparently taking things casually.
