NOT FULLY REPRESENTATIVE
On the face of it, the players chosen can hardly be regarded as fully re presentative, but they should be able to produce clever sides, with a great deal of experience in the rear ranks, which contain a number of veterans.
Actually, there are but five Scottish internationalists in the team-Daw- Bon, Carabine, Gray, Dykes, and M'Nab-although Ellis has played for Wales, and Lyon, M'Kenzie, and Cas- kie for the Scottish League.
It may be a surprise to find Garrett as the forvard leader, but he is a good type for such games as will be undertaken.
