"
There is much truth in both conten- tions, but one taust look further for the explanation of defeat, thinks a Rugby International, who gives his views in the Frening News. A scratch side should by half-time be getting together," he argues. And as to physical fitnes generally the last twenty minutes, not the first twenty of the second-half that count. The "All-Blacks started the rout of London almost immediately after the
interval.
In the match with Osford the same sort of thing happened-level-pegging up to half-time, and then collapse, or some- thing like it. in the opposition. Oxfcru are a team, not a scratch side, and there is no reason why they should not be every bit as fit as the All-Blacks. Thus the excuses made for London will not do for the Dark Blus.

I nearly all the above matches it would acem to have been anybody's game up to half-time after that there was only one side in it In their other match the All-Blacks have invariably more than doabled their first-half scores after the interval...
Physical fitness and stamina account in part for the great scores in the second buli. but they do nos explain the in- variable change which "comes over the game immediately after the interval.
THE SECRET.
In the match against London, the All- Blacks retired to their dressing-room in the pavilion a bali-time, while the Eng- lishmen remained, as is customary on the field of play. The All-Blacks spend the interval in the warm dressing-room, and probably have a quick rub down by. those members of the side who are not playing. Their opponents stand urini. the cold for several minutes, w muscles stiffening up, and helenk tea take a little time to get into their stride again, the All-Blacks jumped into theirs! from the kick-off.
