THE AUCKLAND TEAM'S TOUR. By Telegraph—Press Association. AUCKLAND, September 25. The manager of the Auckland fam which recently went on tour, in a report to the R"Jgby Union Committee, to-night, strongly denies the allegations made of rough play by the learn in the South. The game at Dunedin, he says, was a willing and strenuous one, but he saw no instance of rough or dirty play, and the ordering off of MacCormiclc was, in his opinion, wholly unwarranted. Again, at Christchurch, the Aucklanders played the game as it should be played, but he adds: ''A more one-sided crowd it has never been my lot to see than that which witnessed the Canterbury match." The behaviour of the team pn the tour, asserts Mr Murray, could not have been better.
