Manawatu v. Wellington.
At Wellington on Saturday Manawatu will try conclusions with the men of the windy city. Wellington, it will be noticed from the team published bolow, are playing two five-eighths. Will Manawatu do the same and play Findlay, whose form last Saturday certainly entitles him ? But against the two five-eighths game is the fact that the local backs are not versed in the tactics necessary to carry it through successfully. ' The Wellington team is as follows: — Full-back, Barber; three-quarters, MeIptyre, Bush, Johnston; fiys-eighths, Braid and Gray; half, F. Roberts ; forwards, Dodd, Driscoll, Cross, Wright, Abrim, Joyce, Watkins, Hardham.
