COMMENT ON WEDNESDAY’S MATCH.
BRISBANE, July 25. Experts arc ot the opinion that in yesterday’s match tlio Queenslanders were outclassed in all branches o. tlio game, and that the best team
won. r The Courier comments: —-you can’t expect a man to stop the 'kick of a horse, and it was hardly reasonable to expect the -tree kangaroo to stop the kick of the moa when in his most kickful mood, seeing that the big kangaroo was unable last Saturday to stop tlie self-same kicks. The playing of the All Blacks has the power, strength, and conviction of a kick from a horse.” The Daily Mail says:— “ln the fine points of the game the local meitwere beaten, and in handling the ball the difference was most marked. At tlio same time, manv were of the opinion that the Blacks 1 play yesterday could not he compared with the form shown by previous New Zealand combinations.”
