Udy, 11. aud W. Thompson, Telford, T. Wrigloy, Jeffrios, C, Mooro, Haigh, Dockery, Percy, Callistcr, Holyoake, J. Beard, H. Moore, Yates. The "rep" team chosen to play Wellington on the 14th is considered far stronger than the fifteen that went South lust month, Tho team now choson, would, with a courso of training by a competent coach, be a good match for any team in the Colony, but in their present state a good combination of players will prove tpo much for them, Wellington, heinjjf in the very best pf forrrj, should win, but it is fairly safe to say that it will be a great strngglo for supremacy, Tho match between these teams proved a thorough surprise last season, and another may be is store for us this year.
