It is reported from Melbourne that O. Bridle, the Victorian and Australian Rugby Union representative, is to play the Australian rules game this winter. Bridle has visited both South Africa and New Zealand with Australian teams. He is a most versatile player, being a dashing forward with a safe pair of hands and possessing speed greater than an average back. When the Australian team toured the Dominion last season Bridle filled a position in the three-quarter line on a few occasions, owing to injuries to some of his team mates.
