BEFORE THE TEAM LEAVES.
A Match Wanted.
It is the desire of the large majority of people that the All Blacks should be seen In action before they leave for the Old Dart, and it has been suggested that a match against the next best team m the Dominion be played at Wellington. * > .
It is hardly likely that the suggestion will" be acted upon. The team does not arrive back from Sydney till July 22 and the boat to take them Home leaves on July 26. From this it will be seen that there is no time to play a game.
Should the Remuera, however, not run up to timetable, it is possible that a match will be arranged, but "Tackier" hopes that she keeps her schedule. I would not like to see a picked man meet with an accident oh the eve of his departure and thus be barred from making the trip. "
