LOST OPPORTUNITIES
THE MAORIS’ TOUR. / DAILY NEWS’S COMMENT. (Rec. 5.5 p.m.) London, November 30. Reviewing the Maoris’ tour the Daily News says, “Surely no side ever wasted so many opportunities. It is no exaggeration to say that in the last eight matches they have thrown away at least two tries per match through mistakes at the crucial moment when the opposition has been thoroughly beaten. It is a remarkable fact that the dropped goal scored by leicester was the only one of the tour and it was the only real attempt to bring off such a score. The Maoris’ have been strangely indifferent to the tactical side of the game.” —Sun Cable.
