INTERPORT SELECTIONS ANALYSED

Difficulty Of Choosing Eleven For The Big Match

(By "Rox")

ONE WOULD IMAGINE that with the an- 'nouncement of the team to travel North, the As- sociation have surmounted all obstacles and all that is left is for the team chosen to give of their bost, and all will and woll,

But the question arises which, I fool sure, is puzzling most, as to who will comprise the team to meet the Northernors in the big match.

md, incidentally, The custodianship is settled, jeentre-forward, Moxham is definitely the find of my chalce for that position. A V. Gosano can and should occupy one of As the Colony's the inside positions, especially with the season.

For the defence we have a choice of three playern-Strange, Bone and Hussain. For the same reason that i would pick Strange I put forward the suggestion of Leonard in the track line. The game will be played on a heavy ground and their weight, width, coupled with their speed and above all, their experiences, should How- stund them in good steadi. ever, since Leonard will be required in the forward line I think the choice should fall to Hussain as a I would ting partner to Strange. point out that liussain is good player when he wants to be.

:

The three-quarters are strong in defence with hefty tacklers in Stevens and Paul in the inside berths. The halves are useful, although Hook, the outer, will have to watch carefully for his n bit passes as Luscombe is erratic at times. Lascombe, in turn, will need a lot of watching as he has a tendency to make off on his own quite frequently.

It will probably be in the loose that the Rest forwards will be seen to best adven- tage. with Pinkerton, Searle. Cuth- bertson and Wright-Nooth to the fore.
