SATURDAY’S GAMES. The senior game set down for Cass Square to-morrow afternoon is that between Excelsior and Brunner. The Brunner team has recently been strengthened by the inclusion in its ranks of some of the Magpie players, whose team have disbanded, and last oatfurday beat the Blaketown seniors by 3—o. Excelsiors on their showing ing the last few matches should have no difficulty in having a win, but Brunner forwards should be'able to give a good exhibition, and if their tackling is sound, hold down the scoring of their opponents. The ground should be in very good order for the game. The other senior games take place at Greymouth where Kiwis meet United and Blaketown meet Stars.
