BELOW BEST FORM
ALL BLACKS IN BRISBANE TEAM FOR WEDNESDAY (Reed. Aug. 1, 3 p.m.) BRISBANE, Aug. 1. Commenting on Saturday's match in which the All Blacks defeated Queensland by 30 points to 9, the Courier Mail says that the All Blacks are fit to rank with the Springboks. The paper gives high praise to the speedy backs, but mentions the handting was not always the cleanest.
The Telegraph mentions Morrison as the most outstanding player, but credits Taylor as outshining ins opponent. Walker. The team as a whole was below its best, largely due to the strong wind which affected handling, says the Telegraph. The All Blacks to play the Queensland country fifteen on Wednesday are:—Griffiths, Phillips, Mitchell, Wcsney, Hooper, Berghan, Sexton, Jackson, Lambourne, George, McKenzie, Miiliken, Williams, Wvnvarcl and Parkhill.
