“NOT AFFECTED”
SHIELD MATCHES JUST THE SAME
“Our matches will not be affected,” We Avill simply take them in our stride. It should be possible to make any match on the Southern tour a shield match, as circumstances decide.” This was the answer of Mr. T. Buchanan, of the Auckland Rugby Union, to an inquiry whether the New Zealand Union’s decision would affect Auckland’s prospect of a match for the shield.
Mr. Buchanan said Auckland had definitely challenged Canterbury. If the shield changed hands in the mean time, the challenge by Auckland could be arranged at short notice.
