THE RUGBY GAME

NOTES AND COMMENTS,

Tho Rugby footbull season was ushered in under most favourable conditions on Saturday, when the first round of the club championship matches were played.

The matches on Saturday were keenly contested, and good form was ahown by individual players, but the lack of combination was most marked, a« was to be expected early in tho season, and tho common weaknesses of oponing contests were- revealed. In view of important foreign matches it is good to know that the material in Auckland is sound, and only rcQuirea tho development of a good club season to bring up tho promising possibilities of the players. In the match between Grafton, last year's champ.oni, and College Rifles, at the fcihowground, tho standard of play was not high, but there were occasional flashes of individual brilliancy. The lack of combination waa tlio real weakness. he the first spoil tho toams were- fairly evenly mulched, with Graltoi; showing greater dash in the forwards and moro determ nation in the back division, 'toward tho end of tho spell, and well on in the Beyond half, College Kiflos sprung into action, and played with great spirit and determination, the foiwards going well and tho backa running and attacking with rare dash. Tho detencc of Grafton was tested to the last line, but it waa :;ound to a degree, and in tho final stages, when College Rifles were attacking horse, foot and guns, waa daring and dogged. On tho run of tho.piay there w-as littie difference in the merits of tho teams, though College Rifles had hard luck on miesing a score on one or two occasions through infringements. Tho Grafton forwards were super.or to the College pack in the tight play and in the loose, where, tbo fast following up of the black and whites waa a feature. On the other hand tho Co.lege backs, when they swung into action, were brighter and more elusive on attack than Grafton, whose rearguard, while lacking a little of the pace of tho opposition was safe and solid—a description which fits tho Grafton team from fullback to front rank. Of the individual players Findlay, tho Grafton fullback, stood out for exceptionally good form, his work being finished to a degree. Ho took the ball with certainty, and his long-range line kicking in tho face of charging forwards waa not only the means of saving his side on many occasions, but of turning the attack in favour of his own team. Tho threeouarter line was well served: in Lynch, Austin and Hughes, who individually and as part of tho team played good football Lynch is a decided acquisition, his accurate handling and rare pace making him a dangerous man within striking distance of tho l'ne. Austin played well at centre, taking the ball accurately and running and kicking with good judgment, while h« did not neglect his wings. Lamb and Thomas did not combine well at five-eighths, and played moro <w individuals than as part of a machine. Buckland, the young Grammar half, played a rood game behind the scrum, opening UP the play in fine style and lrcking well. Wifh a little more weight tho Grafton halfback will make a sound player. Nixon as ••over was prominent throughout. The, Grnton forwards playd solidly, excelling in the tieht work and ''ho loose, and wore fast in following- tip. Tho pick of the forward* m he open was NMwlas, who wa« -n .the forefront of eveTT ru"h and was .invariably the first man in the follow nn. "Moore, too, was nrnm-'nent in the open, and Taylor. Hilander and Lamb played well throughout. College Rifles Team. The Collego Rifle backs played well once they swung into action, but their combination admits of improvement. A fast and active reaTguard. the College Kifles back d vision will enow up prominently throughout the season. Gillespie played a sound game at fullback saving his side by a secure fielding of the ball and good defensive kicking to the line. The threeauaner line played well. Griersou at centrs being particularly aggressive, running with great dash and determination, but ratner inclined to lose his wings. Moyes was promising, taking the ball well and attacking strongly, and was always a thorn in the side of the opposition. Barker wm not so prominent, but made several good dashes before being tackled. Hirst and Pilling were much alive in the five-eighths position, being constantly on the move in the attack, opening tin the game in good Btylo, and running strongly. Begg played solidly at halfback, and was responsible for getting his backs away with well-directed passes. AU the forwards played a hard, fast game. Ponsonby created something of «• surprise by defeating Grammar Old Boys in a fast, open game at Victoria Park.; The Ponsonby backs were superior to the Grammar combination on the run of the play, but the forwards were evenly matched. Ponsonby secured a fair share of the ball, and tho backs availed themselves of the chances. Strong running and accurate passing were the features of the play of the back division. The team was unfortunnte in Josing the services of Lucas, who wa-i playing a brilliant game at centre, when he was forced to retire through an injury. In losing Lucas. Ponsonby will bo without the services of its best back- Lucas is showing slight improvement, and will probably be able to play later in the season.

Ponsonby has found a promising back in Mattson. a promoted junior, who made- clean openings, and topped off a sound performance by securing a clever try with a smart, tricky run, McKay, at fullback, another promoted junior, playeij well. McGregor and Wado. promoted, juniors., on the wing of the threequarter line, justified their selection. They were sound ou defence and lost no opportunities on attack. McManus. inside fiveeighths, combined well with the outside fiveeighths and contro. His attack was clever as hia defence was sound. Donovan, at halfback, got the ball away smartly, and was daring in nißh-stopping. The forwards played folidly throughout. Thomas, late of University, gave a good exhibition as rover. Rigbton and Doherty were a solid pair in the front rank, while McTVilliams, Pardington, and Patrick gave fine support.

Grammar Backs Disappointing. The form of tho Grammax backs was disappointing, _ tho erratic passing and faulty handling, with.a tendency to crowd the wings on the touch-line, being features not usually associated with Grammar football. The tackling, too, of Grammar was weak, and tho backs scarcely played up to their reputation The forwards plfcyed w.th good combination, excelling in th© loos©. Grammar appeared to be on tho light ride, but they held their own in the srruru. and secured a fair shore of the ball, though the backs did not make the best usa of it.

Of the individual players Goodacre at fullback was safe. mid. as a junior player, shows a deal of promise. OS the" threeouarter lino Goodwin and Williams did not play up to reputation. Both plaje:r*. however, showed a fine turn of pace, and with better supports must have ficored. Wright at half gave a good display on defence and attack C. Badeley at five-oightha played a bright gam© until forced to retire through injury, opening up the game in characteristic style. Badeley injured his loft knee, and he will have to 3tand down for a time. The Grammar for wards played well in tho loose, Knight. Arnold, and Taylor showing up prominently. Th© teams in the University-Marist Bros, contest at Eden Park wero evenly matched. Tho rushes of tho 'Varsity backs were nullified, to some extent by th* fast following-up and determined tackling cf the Mar.Bt forwards. Th© 'Varsity forwards were outclassed in tho tight play, and although they managed to secure the ball from the majority of tho scrums they never succeeded in hooking it cleanly. Tho Blue forwards, too, showed a tendency to tackle too high, and failed to follow up effectively. The best forward in th© 'Varsity, pack was Keen©, who was on tho ball consistently, and was ably supported by Milikon and Clark. The 'Varsity backs gave a fair display of open tactics. Hopkins at half showed good form. He is a clover player and was tho best back on the ground Hardy is a promising player, but is n . trifle slow in getting the ball away. Park was a solid defender, and Brinsden made several gcod openings at centre. The wings, Perry and Wiseman, played well and put in on» or two fine runs during the game. McNamara. at fullback, played a good all-round game, but has a tendency to speculate at a rolling ball. Marists' Display. The Marists' forwards wero right on the top of their game, Anderson and McDonald, in particular, showing great form, and contributing largely to Marists' win. The Mari<st backs showed flashes of brilliancy, and the ha'fback made several clever openings. Brady, at first fivo-eighthß, played a good game, but was inclined to stand too far back from tho nack.

Tbe contest between Newton and E<len was not rcmnrkabl© for any show of brilliancy, but it was a pood, even game in favour of Newton. It was main'y «, hard, fast firward game, with the Newton pack dominating in tbe open, where they ahowpd excellent form in tbe loose and fast following up. On the line-out Eden was quite the equal of Newton, but in back piny Newton was superior. Liddle. at fttllbnek, a last year's junior, wns snfe. The thmequarter line was only fair, the players lacking experience.. Inglia. on the winn. wha the best of the lino. McClnre. inside five-eighths, played well, cutting-in cleverly and tackling soundly. Fallidny, at outside five-eishtn. ployed a fair game, while Earl, at scrum half, played right up to bis reputation, getting tbe ball out. smsrt'v, and ?oing dowr to rushes in dsring fashion. The forwards were a hard-workinc pack, with Kelly. Dixon nnd Monahan standing out for specially good work. The Eden senior team is composed of nnumber of .last year's Junior players, and flerenil senior players from other pans of the Nortb Island. When this team secures combinntion and the players acquire a better knowledge of each other's style the side should develop into a promising senior fifteen.

CLEVEDON V. NORTH SHORE. North Shore seniors having a byo in the championship matches took a trip to play the Clevedon senior team on Saturday. The game was hard and fast throughout, and Clevedon played sterline football, defeating North Shore by 23 to 14.

UNDER LEAGUE RULES.

NOTES AND COMMENTS

The meeting of Athletics and Ponsonby in the first round of the senior grade competition of the Auckland Rushy Football League was made the chief feature at Carlaw Park on Saturday. At the outset it appeared as though a remarkably keen and close contest would be witnessed, but the Ponsonby players weakened toward the end, and tho scoro against them steadily mounted until half-way through the second spell their position was bopolcsß. The scores at half timo were 8 points to 5. with Athletics in the lead." The second spell saw the Athletics players pile up 15 points and Ponsonby ia.il to increase their tally. Tho game en the whole was more evenly contested than -he scores would indicate. A. McGregor,, .lor Ponsonby, was unlucky with his goal kicking, tho ball on one occasion striking the crossbar and on another one of the upright*. In addition the least bit of good luck would have given Ponsonby a try. What might havo been, however, is not profitable discussion. Tho game was not up to tne standard of last year's League form. . Certainly tne players may not have had time to clevoiop tho team work that is so essential to success in tho League game and will probably improve as the competition progresses. If or tho winners, J. McGregor, at full-back, gave a creditable display, making few mistakes and getting through a lot of work. In the three-quarter line Littlewood was starved, and was tho chief sufferer through the lack of good team work on the part of the inside backs. Tho chance- that he get to score came from a cross kick by a lonsonby back, and the speedy Athletics made full use of the opportunity. The other backs indulged too much in kicking, und though tbey compensated somewhat for this weakness by last following UP and food tackling they should remember that it is a weakness, and, against strong opposition a vital one Tho inaido backs wore frequently a liuit in handling the ball, but toward the end of tho game showed improvement, and doubtless wiR do much better as the season advance!

The Bevonport team 18 showin" greatly improved form this season and with the a<wsfance of B. lain? in th« back division will ke»p most of its opponents busy this season. The Newton players put up a stiff fight, and Poison. Somers and the James brothers showed that they have retained their form. . , Marist Old Boys succeeded in defeating Richmond by a fair margin on the latter's ground, but had to extend themselves fully to do so. Marist Old Boys have again got & fine lot of forwards this season and with i, little more combination among the backs tho team should be particularly strong. The Richmond players are justifying their claim to senior rank, and the team should be a formidable one later in the season.

THE ASSOCIATION GAME.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

Association football enthusiasts -witnessed a Bplendid exposition of the game at Victoria Park on Saturday, when Ponsonby Mid Y.M.C-A. played a drawn game, each mde scoring one goal. Plummer, in goal for Ponsonby, played well, repeatedly stopping fast shots and clearing to his forwards. Alpe was the better of the fullbacks on the day, and Wallwork was particularly sound at centre half. He broke up many promising rnovemenus by the- Y.M.C.A. forwards and invariably placed the ball, to his own wings. Simins' play at outside left was 'briiFia-nt. He- displayed a fine turn of soeed and controlled the ball perfectly. lanes, on the opposite wing, did a lot of good work, but was cleverly marked by Wa'.bran. Y.M.C.A.'s left half, who defender' well. Roberts, who is really a fullback, d;"J not shape badly at centre forward, but was a trifle slow.

Y.M.C.A.'s goalkeeper, Henderson, saved his goal consistently and cleared well. Pitken was the best fullback on the ground, while Fiebig and Clanachan shared the honours in tho half line. Of a wellbalanced set of forwards, Williams, Milne and Catt were perhaps the be3t.

At the Doma;s, Northcote suffered their first defeat since 1920. at the hands [of Brotherhood, who well deserved their win. With the exception of F. Pearson and Harrison, who played for the old Brotherhood team t'.ie season before last, the newly:;orm«>d team is composed of young, keen p'ayers. who must improve with experience. the forwards are fast and nippy, the wing men, Harrison and McDonald, being particularly good. The shooting of the ins'de men was not all that couid be desired, but Hall's goal was a very fine effort. As a team the chief weakness appears to lie in the half line. On Saturday's play Northcotc- were not up to tho form of tn© team which won the championship last year. Tb, : s may be accounted for by the loss of Craxton in goal, Cvoss outside right and Metge at fullback. The substitutes, with the exception perhaps of Hardens, did not come un to expectations. Tho club is very fortunate, however, in its new centre half, Anderson, whose play in the first half was very good. Corrin was early the bettor of iho two fullbacks. His partner B'aokledgo was trood at times, but did not combino weli. The forwards provec themselves a fa*?t and clever lot. Knott at left performed well, and Tremain and Burford also did pood work. Crawford in goal appeared to be rather nervous. The sailors from H-M.S. Philomel started the season well with a runaway victory over F.verton. Hooper, Auckland's representative centre forward, was in excellent form scoring eiuht goals. Hopkins, who played outside left last season, was moved to the fu'lback line, where ho gave, an excellent display. Doree, one of la*t year's backs, was hardly a success at reside left, although ho scored a good goal. He is not fast enough to play s-lonceido Hooper. * * Tho outstanding players on the Everton side wore O'Connor and Humphreys. The latter player scored three goals and gave the impression that he has had considerable experience in hifjh-grado football. Tuning out with oven a better team than that which beat Ponsonby on tho previous Saturday, North Shore wero hardly extended in their match with Corinthians. The inclusion of Pealing and Perritt as insido forwards makes a well-balanced forward line. The inclusion of Buchanan and Haycock in tho half lino i« also a decided improvement Corinthians deserve great credit for tho splendid uphill fight they made, scoring a goal just on time. During the stay in port of H.M.9. Chatham several keenly-contested football rnatrrwa have been played against the other warships, and some strenuous games have resulted. Corbett and Heatley. two of HM.S. Philomel's best players, who received iniur ; es in tho inter-shiii competitions, wro unable to turn out on Saturday last, but are expected to be fit enough to play next week.
