Junior Matches.
V.C. v Athletic. Lost, 11—0. Good hard game. Colquhoun and Amodeo conspicuous for good tackling.
V.C. v Poneke. Lost, 11—0. Repeatedly showed our ability to do everything but cross the chalk line.
V.C. v Southern. Drawn game—6 all. Justly proud of this match, played after capping festivities with 10 men until arrival of four B's at half time. First try of the season by G. W. Reid. J. M. Hogben also forgot himself. Amodeo very safe.
V.C. v Brooklyn. Lost, 3—0. Mud scramble on an unspeakable ground.
V.C. v Old Boys. Drawn, 3—3. Good game rather spoilt by subaqueous ground. Amodeo kicked a fine from an island.
V.C. v Kia Ora. Lost, 9—3. Heavy rain and unusual number of III. B recruits. Another good goal by Amodeo; evidently getting used to it.
V.C. v Oriental. Lost, 13—0. Tackling and kicking very bad. Chances in plenty, but no one improved them.
