ALL BLACKS BEAT LONDONERS.
TWENTY-EIGHT TO THREE. BAD WEATHER CONDITIONS. London, December 28. On a water-logged ground the All Blacks defeated the London Counties on Saturday by 28 points to 3, the same margin as the victory in the first match against the same side. The opposing team was weakened by the last minute withdrawal of seven international players. All ' New Zealand's tries were scored by forwards, viz., C. Brownlie (3), Donald, M. Brownlie, Parker. Richardson and Irvine, Nicholls converting two. Both backs and . forwards played splendidly despite the fact that the heavy, slippery ball was all against bright, open play. With only the match against England to play, the All Blacks have been victorious in every game of the tour to date. Saturday saw their twenty-seventh victory.
