VIGOROUS GAME LEAGUE MATCH AT HAMILTON HODGSON ORDERED OFF ■ i’er Press Association'] HAMILTON, Aug. 6. ■ In a hard, vigorous game before 3000 spectators, the English League tourists defeated South Auckland at Huntly to-day by 21 to 6. The superior back play of the visitors was too much for the home side, though the South Auckland tackling was solid, Taoho and E. Tukcre especially shining in this respect. A sensation was created when Hodgson was ordered off for striking O’Brien ten minutes after half-time. Hodgson was previously reprimanded by the referee for disputing his decisions. Hodgson refused to go off and Brough, the English captain, threatened to take the team off. Hodgson was hostile to the referee but was held back by his .team-mates. The referee was- adamant and Hodgson went off reluctantly. EHerington and Axley were injured in the first half but were unable to resume in the second spell. Beverley was injured early in the second half, leaving England only nine men. Play was open in the first half but rough after the Hodgson incident. Brogden, Davies and Edwards were outstanding for the visitors, Edwards scoring a brilliant try. The South Auckland forwards played well, giving the home team a territorial advantage in the first half. Only three Englishmen were played in the scrum in the second half. The ball rarely went into the scrum cleanly, and the Englishmen were severely penalised for scrum infringements. The South Auckland backs rallied in the last quarter of an hour of the game and several times were near scoring. Brough was too sound at full-back, however, though badly beaten once by Taoho, who scored. Mr. P. Rogers has been appointed referee for the first test.
