There was a great rally in Die closing stages, when the Waratahs secured their victory, despite the fact that their opponents were leading by 5 to 3 at half-time. The ground was very muddy and the game was mostly a forward one. The backs had few opportunities, being handicapped by the greasy ball. The local players attacked fiercely in the first spell and kept the Waratahs on the defensive. In the second spell the Waratahs fullv held their own.—A.P.A. and “Sun.”
