CHAIRED OFF FIELD
At the conclusion of the Poneke-John-sonville match at Athletic Park, five players were chaired off > the field, by their team-mates. They were Crisp, Elliott and O'Brien (Poneke). and. Dean and G. Burns (Johnsonville), who have. joined the forces. As some of them will be stationed at Trentham, it is possible’ that their clubs may have their services for a few more matches. All five have had outstanding records for their 'clubs. For many seasons Crisp impressed as the best full-back in club matches. In these Sarnes his play was almost faultless, but he never seemed able to do himself justice in representative games.
