SATURDAY’S RUGBY

WANGANUI COMPETITIONS CONTINUED Marists Down Old Boys County Go Down to Kaierau Pirates beat Tech. Old Boys. The Wanganui Metropolitan Bngby Suh-Union’s competitions were continued on Saturday in fine weather, a few drops of rain falling as the final game concluded. Although none of the senior teams gave a finished exposition of the code the three games staged had each its exciting moments. On Spriggens Park, before about two thousand spectators, County were defeated but not disgraced in their meeting with Kaierau, and in the later game, finished in the dusk, Marists accounted for Old Boys in a clash In which the scores correctly indicated the relative merits of the teams. On the Eacecourse Pirates, in a willing encounter, notched sixteen points to Tech. Old Boys’ three. In the third grade game for the Maoriland Cup Queen’s Park, the holders, defeated the challengers, Aramoho, by eleven points to nil. Taken all round the standard of Eugby showed a decided improvement on the previous Saturday’s display.

A NARROW MARGIN MARISTS’ TWO-POINT WIN. The game between Marists and Wanganui and Old Boys was given pride of on Spriggens Park and resulted in a win for the former by the i arrow margin of two points. Although the game was marked by bright flash?s of play it could not be said that either team set a high standard of Rugby. Marists owed their win mainly to their forwards, who played with great dash, especially in the latter stages of the game. Old Boys’ backs did not shine so well as their supporters would have liked, and there seemed to be a weakness between the half and the wings. The game in the concluding stages could be described as nothing more than a scramble, due to the failing light. The teams were as follows: Marists (green)..— Narby; Darby, Jones, Murray; Vangioni, E. Crotty; Watts; Cutelli, Buckley, Dobbs, E. Fromont, Hayward, L. Fromont, Nicholson, Gudsell. Old Boys (blue). —Fulton; McFarlane, Carlson, Cameron; Udy, Ball; Blythe; Cox; Calcott, Lee, Binley. Weekes, Murie, Burdett, Ross. The Game Described.

Old Boys kicked off and almost immediately Marists were awarded a free kick, a blue man being offside. The ball found touch in Old Boys’ territory just over the half-way line. From the line-out the Marist backs secured possession, and swept towards the blues’ goal in a fast passing rush, Watts, Vangioni, Crotty and Jones, handling in turn. The last-named punted and followed through to collar the blue fullback in possession. From an ensuing scramble Old Boys forced. From the drop-out Darby secured to punt high to MacFarlane, who was grassed by the greens who were fast in following up. The leather found touch from a ruck. From the throw-in near Old Boys’ twenty-five, Blythe secured and put in a neat run, but his pass to Cameron lacked direction and the ball went out. The Old Boys’ vanguard came away with a determined rush from the line-out, but the green backs got down to it and stemmed the tide, Narby relieving the pressure by a long kick, which Cameron gathered in. The blue winger made a tricky run, beating several opponents, and finally kicking with judgment to put the leaither into touch well in Marists’ twentylive.

Blue again got possession, and Blythe passed to Udy, to Ball, to Carlson, to Cameron, who misjudged the distance, kicking into touch-in-goal 4 and a promising attack ended. From the twentyfive yard kick, the green forwards followed up fast, and the blues’ attempts to clear were smothered, and Jones, the Marist centre, gathered in, and made a strong run, which looked dangerous for the blue defenders, but he hung on too long, and was grassed, and Fulton found touch.

In a Dangerous Quarter. Marist forwards came away with an inspiring dash with the ball at toe, and the blue inside backs did not relish getting aown to pull it up. As a result play swung dangerously into Old Boys’ area, and they were lucky when Cameron relieved with a kick into touch, which only gained a few yards. From the line out Blythe passed/ to MacFarlane, but the winger failed to gather the leather in, and the ball went out again. Marists were penalised for charging into the line-out, and the resultant free kick put blues on the attack, close to the green line, but the defenders were able to relieve. Play of a give and take nature followed. The Marist backs were again prominent in a swift passing rush, from Watts to Crotty, to Vangioni, to Darby, then back to Vangioni, who sho£t-punt-ed to Fulton, who relieved. Shortly after E. Crotty left the field injured, ! being replaced by his brother, F. Crotty, and a few minutes later the blues lost the services of MacFarlane, who was replaced on the wing by Lee, Crease taking the latter’s place in the forwards. Blues First to Score.

Play swept up and down the field, the forwards on both sides playing well, with the greens better in the tight work, and the blues shining in the loose. The movement which ended in the first score of the match started from a scrum, the ball coming out to Blythe, to Cox, to Udy, who lost possession, but

| Cox was handy and, securing, passed Ito Lee, who scored. Carlson did not , add the major points.—Old Boys 3; j Marists 0.

Undaunted the greens came away with great dash, the forwards putting vim into their play, and Old Boys had a hard run of defensive work. The blue defence was equal to the occasion, i however, and play was returned to I half-way, where Cameron came into ■ possession. He made a nice run and ; attempted to centre, but Jones, the l Marist three-quarter came into the pici ture, and, fielding cleanly, sent the ball ; back, for a blue man to fumble and | finally knock-on. I From the scrum Cox got away, but I was collared low by Crotty, and the [ball rolled into touch. Marists again (figured in a sweeping forward rush, the I ball travelling to the Old Boys’ twenty[five and finding touch. Then Nicholson and Cutelli figured in a passing movement, and passed to Darby who ran round to score. Honours were even when Narby failed to convert. Halftime sounded shortly after, with the score:

Marists 3 Old Boys 3 The Marists opened strongly in the second spell and soon had blues defending. The green forwards, cheered on by their supporters, made the game very willing. Nicholson had to be carried off injured and was replaced by Scanlon. Marists took play to Old Boys’ line but Fulton cleared, and the blue forwards following up caught Darby attempting the dummying tactics, and forced him into touch. Marists Attack Strongly. From the line-out the green backs got going, Watts, Crotty, Vangioni and Darby participating. The last-named player made a good run, beating several opponents, but he was forced into touch dangerously close to the blues’ line. Vangioni gathered in from the line-out and put in a corkscrew run, beating practically the whole blue team, but was unsupported, and was grassed cleanly by Fulton. Old Boys were penalised shortly after and the greens gained ground. The green forwards were prominent again in another of their rushes and swept play right to the blue full-back, who mulled, and a scramble ensued. The leather was heeled back to Watts, to Crotty, to Jones, who beat two opponents with a beautiful swerve and passed to Murray, and the latter ran round to score under the posts. Narby converted.—Marists 8; Old Boys 3. Excitement became intense when the blues kicked off again. Old Boys made things willing, and the greens were kept strenuously defending. They were equal to the occasion, however, time and again returning the leather to touch from the toes of the oncoming blue forwards.

Heady Play by Blythe. Blythe, Old Boys ’ half, and Cameron (wing) then combined to score the most spectacular try of the match. The movement was preceded by a passinorush, from Blythe, to Lee, and then infield to Cox, who grubber-kicked into touch. From the line-out near the Marists’ twenty-five the bine forwards passed back to Blythe, who ran straight and, with a beautifully-judged kick, sent the leather over to Cameron on the other wing. Cameron fielded cleanly, found the opposing backs out of position, and made a great run to score. Through failing to convert Old Boys lost the match.—Marists 8, Old Boys 6.

Play in the Dusk. The light was failing fast, and up and down the field went the play. The blues tried hard to pull the game out of the fire, but the greens kept them at bay. Both teams appeared to advantage at various stages. First the blues, headed by Murie, Weeks, Burdett and Cox, would sizeep down on to Marists, and then the I greens would retaliate, and play would find Old Boys on the defence. The dusk handicapped both sides, and from the touchline little could be seen of the play. No change had come when the final bell rang, with the score reading Marists 8 " Old Boys 6 Mr. J. S. King was referee.

KAIERAU AND COUNTY

VICTORY FOR MABOONS. COUNTY TEAM’S GOOD SHOWING. Kaierau fielded a weak fifteen against County in the early game on Spriggens Park, and as a result the latter team showed to a better advantage than it would have done had the- maroons been at full strength. Except in the dying stages the game was fairly even, and at times the County players, the majority of whom last year were juniors, outclassed their more seasoned opponents. County lost the game mainly through a fault which is commonly seen these days in senior football—collaring round the neek. Even Play. From the kick-off the Kaierau forwards, following up, kept the ball in County’s twenty-five, but the County forwards came away with the leather at toe. The Kaierau half, Simpson, stemmed the tide, gathering in and passing to H. Stewart, who shortpunted over the heads of the opposition, gaining ground. Play was of a scrambling nature for the next few minutes, and eventually the Kanerau backs secured the ball from a line-out, and H. Stewart cut in to draw his man. His pass was a wild one, spoiling what promised to be a splendid concerted movement, and the ball was kicked into touch. Shortly after Ihaia got away for Kaierau, but he was not supported, and Potae, playing full-back for County, grassed him in the latter’s twenty-five. The maroon forwards were quickly into position and County were unable to clear, the ball finding touch in their territory. Kaierau were penalised for charging into the line-out, and County gained much ground with the resultant free kick finding the line in the maroon’s area.

A County Score Desultory play followed the throw in, and the leather was heeled back from a ruck to Hcinold, the County half, who, with a nippy pass, sent the ball out to his backs, Aitken, Burnett, and Josephs handling in turn, and the lastnamed kicked over the head of his vis-a-vis. Fast following up by County caught the Kaierau full-back waiting for the bounce. In vain the maroon backs came tearing up into posi" tion to stop the attack, but the leather came out to C. Heinold who scored. The kick failed—County 3, Kaierau 0. The resumption of play saw the Kaierau forwards infuse more dash into into their play. Brookie had the County fullback bustled, and in a spectaculator the luck was with the latter, the ball finding touch. Play hung in County’s I twenty-five. From a scrum the maroons . hooked the ball to Simpson who passed ’to Stewart, to Glengarry, to Ihaia, but the latter player gave an erratic pass which spoilt the movement and scrambling play followed. The leather came to Thompson, the maroon full-back, who attempted to pot, but failed. Potae relieved with a long kick into touch. C. Heinold figured again in another promising movement but the Kaierau defence was sound. From a line-out near the half-way line, the maroon backs secured, the ball travelling out :to Ihaia, where another promising movement broke down through an erratic pass. Heinold fielded the ball cleanly from a high kick by the maroons and returned the leather into the latter’s twenty-five, but Thompson not bustled by the oncoming County forwards, fielded cleanly, and kicked into touch. Two Maroon Scores.

County continued to press the maroons, securing the ball on most occasions from the line-outs and ruck play. Heinold, playing a great game behind the scrum, many times set his backs in action, but the latter were not well versed in the fine points of the game and several promising movements came to naught. From a line-out near halfway Simpson secured and transferred to Stewart, to Glengarry, to Ihaia, who kicked. Fast following up by the maroon forwards, with Johnston, Brookie, and Lloyd Stewart prominent, saw the latter score. The same player piloted the leather between the uprights and half-time then came with the scores:

Kaierau 5 County 3 Kaierau’s next score came as the result of a stern maroon attack in County’s territory. The ball came out from tight play to Thompson, who made no mistake with a drop-kick from the field.—Kaierau 9; County 3. Kaierau Dominates Play. Play dragged on, neither side doing anything worthy of note until the maroon inside backs, securing the leather, paved the way for W. Collier to score the best try of the match. When the maroon winger gained possession of the leather he had two men to pass, but he ran strongly, and although the County players made short work of his jersey, they failed to defend their line and Collier crossed. Thompson could ’not improve the scores.—Kaierau 12; County 3. On resuming County did not plav with the same dash, and Kaierau had the upper hand. The maroons scored the last try of the match when Simpson secured and carried the ball over, for Johnston to score, and the game ended: Kaierau _— , . 15 County _ 3 Mr. T. Hurley was the referee.

HARD PLAY

PIRATES HAVE UPPER HAND. TECHNICAL OLD BOYS BESTED. Stirring clashes between two consistent forward packs characterised the senior game between Pirates and Technical Old Boys on the Racecourse. The game was a hard one from beginning to end, and two Tech, players, W. Pine and Boyd, left th/ field, Boyd having slight concussion. A fairly large crowd watched the blacks gain a clear victory and keenest Enthusiasm was displayed. With Bennett leading a strong forward division, Pirates made tqrrifie onslaughts on the lighter ex-students, and the game will certainly be remembered for its 'stern play. Good movements were frequent, but any brilliant attempts by the backs were effectively stopped by the bustling forwards. Both back lines worked fairly well, but open play was difficult. Technical’s Weakened Team. The ex-students fielded what was stated to be a weak team, admittedly not their best, and the loss of two forwards also handicapped them. From the kick-off the magpies for a time more than held their own. Reid obtained possession near half-way for the ex-students and dashed for the line. Ho threw out to Ambrose at the right moment, and the Technical centre jinked his way through the defence ■*•> cross well out. . P. Stiver did not convert. —Technical 0.8. 3, Pirates 0. Slashing play continued and the exposition was proving to be exciting. The Pirate backs set off on an invasion, but the winger, Head, was grassed by Wylie. By means of fine tackling, Technical were keeping their heavier opponents back. Pirates Hard Pressed. The next incident of note was a Tech, back movement inaugurated by Scott, but Crichton was held up on the line. Tech, maintained the attack but the blacks fought their way back to safety. From then on play was highly interesting. Bustling Play.

Play bustled along to close on the end of the first spell, when Pirates bore down on the magpies’ defence, and following a scrum, J. Duncan crossed for the blacks. Fitzgerald added two points and the first spell ended: Pirates i, 5 Technical Old Boys 3 In the second spell hard play was again the rule, but soon after the commencement it was apparent that many of the players had lost their vigour. The husky Pirate pack continued to force play and it became evident that the blacks were assuming control. Weight and experience told their tale. 1* rom a scramble, J. Duncan dodged through Technical’s defence for his second try. A very easy kick was missed by Fitzgerald.—Pirates 8; Technical 0.8. 3. Pirates continued to bustle the opposition, and after fumbling by Wylie the blacks got away. Lloyd brought the oval to the line, and Bennett scored by fast following up. Fitzgerald missed. —Pirates 11; Technical 0.8. 3. A Hopeless Fight. Technical were putting up a good, but hopeless, fight, but nevertheless were producing several good manoeuvres. Pirates’ final points were secured when Barnes burst over towards the end for a try and Fitzgerald go al cd. The whistle went shortly afterwards with the scores reading: Pirates jg Technical Old Boys 3 Mr. C. I. Spillane was referee.

REPRESENTATIVE GAME

HAWKE’S BAY PREDOMINATE FINE TUSSLE WITH POVERTY BAY [Per Press Association.] NAPIER, June 11. Hawke’s Bay anid Poverty Bay met to-day in a representative Rugby match before an attendance of five thousand, the former winning by 14 points to 3. Hawke’s Bay kicked off and play settled down in the visitors’ territory. The game had not gone very far before Thomas, the visiting forward, was compelled to retire with an injured knee and* was replaced by Woodward. Loose forward tactics and short movements among the home backs kept the visitors on defence and only smart fielding and good line kicking protected their line. Anstis at half-back handled cleanly and several times set the home backs in motion. Mishandling by Corkill allowed the visitors’ forwards to *£ct away with the leather at their feet and Hawke’s Bay found it necessary to force down. Then Matthews cleverly intercepted a pass and made a good run before being brought down. A couple of scrums within striking distance of the home line kepi Hawke’s Bay defending until a free kick transferred play to half-way. Several times Anstis started the local backs but the effort usually broke down at the wings through good tackling or a dropped pass. Rather much kicking spoilt the game which was devoid of interest and* play hovered in midfield; until M. Brownlie gained possession, beat several opponents and handed the ball on to J. Gemmell in a handy position to score. Corkill converted.—Hawke’s Bay 5; Poverty Bay 0. This was followed immediately by a smart red* attack which looked djangcrous, but the defence survived the ordeal. Caulion raised some excitement by beating several men, but the Hawke’s Bay backs cleared to half-way. Pro gross towards the red line was stopped by Blake being thrown out and halftime found the scores unaltered*.

Visitors Score in Second Spell. The Poverty Bay forwards opened the attack in the second spell. The local forwards got away with the ball at their feet and then the backs took up the running but Blake knocked on. From the scrum Smith found the line well down the field. The advantage gained was exploited by the red forwards, but they lacked penetrating power. Eventually M. Brownlie put in an exceptional run, badly beating several op ponents before he was compelled to pass to the backs, who wore unable to sustain the effort. The reds were in home territory again and then started the brightest feature of the match. The red forwards opened a passing bout and their backs joined in and a splendid movement ended in Whareiti being crowded out on the line. From the throw in Walters secured* and broke across. Morrison missed the kick. — Hawke’s Bay 5; Poverty Bay 3. A black and white onslaught followed immediately. M. Brownlie sold a dummy, made ground and passed to Clarke who transferred to Corkill and the latter scored near the corner. Corkill missed with the kick. —Hawke’a Bay 8; Poverty Bay 3. The local.forwards again bustled* the visitors on to their line, but bad passing and good tackling by the reds kept the attackers out. Fortunes fluctuated with slight advantage to the k|al team. A free kick wide out gave Corkill a chance and he took it.—Hawke’s Bay 11; Poverty Bay 3. Carrington broke through the home attack and a little more pace might have let him over, but the defence got round in time to spoil the effort. The remaining stages were more or less neutral except for a bout in which Priestly, Blake and Corkill were engaged ,and the latter scored. Corkill missed the kick. Time sounded with play in midfield and the scores Hawke’s Bay .. 14 Poverty Bay 3
