TO-MORROW'S MATCHES.
Three matches are set down for de* cision to-morrow, viz.: Rovers t. Turua "'■ Rovers 11. v. Pirates, and Thames 111. t! i < Hovers 111. The senior match should prove very interesting, as" since their contest with Thames a fortnight ago 1 urua are reported to have considerably strengthened their team, and as Hovers are _ also placing a strong fifteen in the field, a big fight may be expected. The other matches should also give rise to keen contests, and as players have now had a little practice together, a better exposition of Rugby should be witnessed. ■' i f°J lowin S are the llover teams, neither Turua nor Pirates teams having come to hand :—
RovERS.-Full-back : S. Dufty ; threequarters: Lloyd, Koefoed, Murphyi" halves: Paul and Johns; forwards: D. Stewart, Williams, Tea, Wilson, 8; Smith, Maxwell, Cooper, Alexander, Billing,
