COMMENTS ON SATURDAY'S .MATCH, B* Telegraph.—Press Assn.- -Copyright Sydney, June 14. The football match on Saturday was one. of the ■ most sensational played in Sydney, victory by such a margin staggering the most optimistic of the home supporters The Englishmen questioned some of the rulings of the referee, but were outplayed from the commencement. During Saturday's match two English threequarters were ordered off the field In the second half for repeatedly questioning the referee's decision, and a third for punching an opponent. One New South Wales player was ordered off and several others on both .Sides cautioned for rough play, which marked the gaone throughout.
