Press Praise
(Received 2 p.m.) BRISBANE, This Day
Commenting on Saturday’s Rugby match, the “Courier-Mail''” says that the All Blacks are fit to rank with the Springboks, and gives high praise to the speedy backs, but mentions that the handling was not always of the cleanest.
The “Telegraph” mentions Morrison as the most outstanding player, but credits Taylor with having outshone his opponent Walker. The team as a
whole was below its best, largely due to a strong wind, which affected handling of the ball. The All Blacks who play the Country team on Wednesday, vail be: Griffiths (full-back), Phillips, Mitchell, Wesney, Hooper, Berghan, Saxton, Jackson, Lambourne, George* McKenzie, Milliken, Williams, Wynyard, and Parkhill.
