N.Z. FOOTBALL TEAM.
VIEWS OF THE DAILY MAIL
(Per United Press Association,— Coi'YBIQHT.)
„,, _., SIDNEY, January 29. f the Daily Mail says that either the "All Blacks were meeting in South Wales foemen far more worthy of their steel than they had met elsewhere or else the strain of the tremendous tour was beginning to tel the inevitable tale and they were hard put to it. Against Newport in the first twenty minutes of the opening half, the visitors had pretty much their own way, ~ and Harper scored the first, and only try. of the game. A few minutes later, Wallace dropped a magnificent penalty goal from nearly half way and it seemed as if the colonials were contented with this advantage tor they were seldom dangerous afterwards. In the second half, Newport were in their opponents' territory most of the time and the colonials were fortunate in possessing a lead of six points.
