MATCH IN HAMILTON. i . l ; AUSTRALIA’S WIDE MARGIN. E i i l SOUTH AUCKLAND DEFEATED. l - i Completely overwhelming the oppo- i sition, the Australian Soccer tourists‘ defeated South Auckland by the his’ margin of 12 goals at Bushy Park,Hamilton. in a game in which the local side found the opposition altogether too good. Bewiidcred by the immaculate positional play and tactics of thel Australians, lhc home team were 7 goals down in the tlrst half. In the second spell Australia eased the pressure, but nevertheless collected a further six goals. liad J’rioe been included in the visiting front line it is difllrnlt to imagine. how South Auckland would lune stemmed the tide of goals that must have resulted. i.-\s it was, Cameron, “bile and Smith ‘had a day out, Ihe last—named regis—‘tcring five of his side's goals. South Auckland failed altogether to reply to hrillianl movements of the visitors and appeared overnwed by an exhibi—tion of scientific play. (Jlal‘kson, originally picked as an emergency, \\as perhaps the outstanding player for the home team, while Clark, at full back, .did well in his‘ first representative game. Schonau, in goal, found the opposition vanguard altogether too severe. Donaldson did quite well, playing better at centre than on the wing. Brilliant Forwards. . Naturally the weak opposition did not show the visitors ed to advantage, but the brilliance of their forward line was quite apparent even without the meteoric Price. .\lcNah revealed some glimpses of the form which has earned him a fine reputation in New Zealand, but he was not called upon to defßncl on many occasions. The South Auckland forwards failed rat-her badly to follow up movements, the custodian being allowed to get away very easily on occasions. Fine conditions prevailed for the’ match, but the ground was rather badly cut up. The teams lined out as follows: Australta.—-Goal, McNmb; full—hacks, Evans, Mackay; halves, Love, Harden, Osborne; forwards, Wilkinson, Cam—eron, Smith, White, Forrest. South Auckland—Goal, Schonau; fulldbacks. Clark, McCallum; halfbacks. Jenkins. D. Crabb (captain), Beaumont; forwards, Ularkson, Stew—art. A. Crnhb, Donaldson, McLean. The referee was Mr E. ii. Marsh and the lincsmcn, Messrs F. ’l‘. Mills and L. E. .\lcod. _‘SOUUI Auckland kicked off'hut the "151101?

From 11 goal kick the visitors again forec'd matters, Achnllum again checking the rush to send his forward up the held. Ularkson attempted a shot but .\lcNah had no difficulty in clearing, A free kick by Beaumont was well di—rected but South Auckland failed to take advantage“. The first it) min. utes of the game saw the home team with a territorial advantage and pretty play by Stewart earned applause. t-‘rom centre-half to outside right the hall was in a scoring position fronting the visiting goal, but the movement went for nought; and play shifted to the op—posing end where, following a liright movement: on the right, Wilkinson crossed for Smith to drive hard, winding the goal-keeper, Cameron having an easy shot from the rebound.
