N.S.W. TEAM. CHRISTCHURCH, Sept. 14. In an interview, C. E. Morgan, manager Of the New South Wales team, said that most of the side were new to big football. This was the reason that so many penalties had been given against them during the tour. \ The hulk of the players were over keen. Only five or six of the players hud represented New South Wales before the present tour, and there wore only, three members of tlio team which had toured the Old Country last year in the present team. Naturally all the younger members of the team .were anxious to do well and were perhaps a bit over keen.”
