Team For Third Test
(Received 12 Noon.) ; SYDNEY, This Day. The managers of the All Blacks in Canberra have announced the names of 20 men from whom the New Zealand test side for Saturday will be chosen. The players are:— "Backs: Taylor, Phillips, Morrison, Dick, Mitchell, Wesney, Sullivan, Griffiths, Berghen, Saxton. Forwards: Jackson, George, Quaid, Lambourn, McKenzie, Wynyard, King, Milliken, Bowman, Parkhill. Dalton was not available, owing to slight indisposition. It is likely that Dick will play in preference to either Phillips or Morrison, but it would appear that the Saxton - Berghen - Sullivan - Mitchell combination will not be disturbed if all these players are fit. There are rumours in Sydney that Saxton will not play because of his mishap yesterday, but Canberra advises that the injury to his ankle is only slight. The vacant position in the front row will probably be filled by either Jackson or Lambourn. Wynyard may be the second-row forward to be omitted.
