RUGBY.
ALL BLACKS STILL ON LIST. AND THEIR RECORDS. ■That energetic and inveterate statistician of Rugby football, A. H. Carman (Auckland) has compiled, a table setting out the activities of jprajnbers of the 1924 All Blacks since sieir”‘return. . From his industrious scrutiny of newspaper files he gathers'’ that in the 1925/ season those who dicL'nbt play in any rep. -matches were.: Harvey, Badelev, McCleary, Donald* Cunples; Munro, Parker, West -arid' White . Last season-West-and Masters were added to the retired list of rep. players, but Badeley
and Harvey played again. So that in each of the two seasons eight of the original party of 29 were out of the game in big football. In 1925 Badeley (who was travelling) did not take part in the club games, but he took up the game again last season, when Cupples definitely retired from play. Munro played only one club game in each season, and White failed to come out in 1925 (when his club team defaulted) and played ' only four games last year. Although J. Steel was in the thick of the club play at Gfeymoutli in 1925.. scoring 101 points for his club, he played only one rep. match, the inter-island game. In 1925 he played only one rep. match again. Mark Nicholls has remained the most prolific scorer of the party, getting 72 points iu rep. games and 81 in club games in 1925, and 72 and 107 last year. The scores for the two seasons are:
The club games played by Irvine in 1925 "and Nepia in 1926 are not known. It will be seen that in 1925 Steel, Nicholls and Cooke “made a century,” and that Cooke and Nicholls each repeated the hundred last season.
