Moye Scheme It was the general feeling of the meeting that the fixtures drawn up for the senior matches are such that the Rangitikei towns have been badly neglected and that all the important games have been played at Wanganui. It was mentioned that Bulls ana Hunterville had had three and four Saturdays on end without a senior game. The secretary stated that they usually had to rely on the “Chronicle” to obtain the fixtures as he was not notified of them by the Wanganui Metropolitan Rugby Sub-union.
