THE CRYSTAL BALL

Ho ho! Hee hee! Talk about judges. Not one person picked the programme.

First upset, so far as the "tipsters" were concerned, was the double defeat of North Shore by Newtown on Satur­day, whilst on Sunday the Navy's eclipse of the Premiers and Balmain's shock win over Liverpool soon accounted for the remaining " l i ve " tickets.

Thank you, Newtown, Sydney-Naval and Balmain for your co-operation in saving the League a big pay out.

We wi l l consider putting on another contest later in the season. In the meantime we have demonstrated that the former Editor, Mr. John Holman, generally, speaking was very reliable in his forecasts, and when he resumes his position he can be assured that his seances,with the magic ball w i l l be respected.

FROM WIDE AND FAR The new secretary of the Queens­

land National Football League is a former Fitzroy player, Mr. Joe Grant. He has been three years in Queens­land and has taken a very active in­terest in the Junior side of the code. He succeeded Mr. Reg Pye, who has retired.

The National Code has made great strides in Queensland this season. I n Brisbane, 8 first grade, 10 reserve grade and 64 junior teams are playing the code. Then there are over 100 school teams playing mid-week games. Junior Secretary (Mr. Gordon Hall) said that all grades were covered from under 11. years to the under 18's. New clubs are Legacy, South Brisbane Police Youth, and Nundah Youth Club.

In September, a Sydney under 1(5 years side is expected to make the tr ip to Brisbane to play an under 16 side at Perry Park. Also at a date to be arranged an under 14 team from Brisbane is to play a game at Towns-ville.

South Australia's "Mr . Football," Fos. Williams. — Two football mile­stones are within the reach of this great player this season. He could equal the record of former West Aust. champion, "Nipper" Truscott, of play­ing in five carnivals. Also he needs another 14 games to reach 200 in S.A. League ranks.

Now 35 and entering his 13th League season, Fos. has only to" maintain some of last year's form to clinch selection as S.A. captain again. He has already played in the 1947 (Hobart), 1950 (Brisbane), 1953 (Adelaide), and 1956 (Perth) Carni­

vals. An automatic choice in State teams since 1947, Wil l iams' total of 31 State games, the last 13 as captain, is probably an Australian record. He first began his S.A. career wi th West Adelaide in 1946 and played 54 games wi th that club before transferring to Port Adelaide as captain-coach in 1950. He has now played 132 games wi th Port, l i f t ing his League total to 186. Truly a grand record.—Leo H.

Norm. Reidy, captain-coach of Sand-gate F.C. (Queensland) was recently suspended for 6 weeks for allegedly kicking an opponent. He has lodged an appeal against the decision and his club wi l l wear purple armbands in their next match to show their dis­approval of the penalty.

LAST WEEK'S STAR PLAYERS

Balmain atoned for their unlucky defeat by Navy the previous week i n combining well to down Liverpool on their home ground. Len Thompson once again was the star. His rucking •was bri l l iant and he gave his rovers an everlasting feast of the ball. Bruce Chandler at centre was always notice¬

. able and he kept the ball going to the 'forwards with long, well-directed kicks. Ray Moore showed his coach­ing abi l i ty by making a positional change in the second quarter in switch­ing with Bruce Chandler on the wing. They then became unbeatable. The back line worked hard all day, with Elwin Lock, Johnny Green and Noel Workman repeatedly coming under notice for bri l l iant saves. Ken Long-ley, whilst "resting" in the back

31, Hec. Starr 26, Stan Powditch 25 and Jimmy Stiff 17—quite an array of "sharp shooters."

Publicity was directed to the A.N.F.C. Football Carnival in ' Sydney later i n the year. The late W. S. (Jumbo) Sharland, former Geelong ruckman and Editor of the "Sporting Globe," was appointed Organiser of the series, to arrive in Sydney about the middle of July.

The N.S.W.A.N.F.L., at the last meeting, appointed Mr. George San­ders, an active Life Member, as manager of the New South Wales side. The annual trophy for the "best and fairest" player in reserve grade, ad­judged on umpires' votes, bears his name.

Mr. Sanders now resides in retire­ment, wi th his wife, at Umina (via Woy Woy) and is on the mailing list of "The Record," by which means we convey our best wishes and kindest regards.

pocket, also defended stoutly when required.

For the Rangers "Tassie" Norquay gave a bri l l iant display in the centre wi th speedy and accurate disposal of the ball. F. Langford, in defence bri l l iant in the a i r 'and relieved w i t h , long-driving kicks. Highlight of the match was the strong rucking of M Quealey.

Jack Harding has assumed the rank of Rear Admiral in the Navy team. His tactical talking and position-1 changes saved the day when the Tars were hard pressed by the Premiers in the final stages of play. Per-Jeffrey's change from full-forward to ruck was a move which assisted "Flex" Smith and enabled the rovers to get more than their fair share of the ball. The pivot, Bert Fitzgerald, showed remarkable form on the rain-softened centre and his dashes continually caught the opposition on the w r n r ^ foot. Backs (Mason, Rowan and Dutton) were continually on the move and l i t t le more could be asked of them in defence. Half-back flank "Jerry" Smith gained the best and fairest award, closely followed by Harding, Coverley and Whitbread.

Jack Dean was a power i n the ruck for the Bulldogs, and high-lighted his display with a beautiful angular goal from sixty yards out — a perfect example of t iming and "follow through." Others to figure prominert 'y were Alf Penno, centre half-back; Don Wilson on the half-back flank; Kev Li t t le and Jerry Davidson in the centre; Roy Hayes, ruck or defence, and Peter' Clark, back in his r ight position.

J. Kuschert was a dominating figure for Wests in the centre. He handled the heavy going well, marked safely and repeatedly sent his team into attack wi th distance devouring punt kicks. P. Kuschert (centre half-back) and G. Muj&gfback pocket) defended soundly £ypjfe*tting squarely behind the ball for their marks, or coming down the ground wi th the bag of wind ,

at their feet. J . Spane and R. May used their pace to advantage on the wings to take the ball away from the packs and open up play. Rover T. Cooke revelled in the heavy going, popping up w i t l i the ball repeatedly.

Once again "Skipper" Bolitho starred for Bankstown. I n heavy con­ditions, he marked bri l l iantly , rought determinedly for the ball and was a constant inspiration to his team-mates. Rhys Ghiddys shared equal honours, with rugged rucking and cool and intelligent play. Keith Askew, re­cently promoted from reserves, made his presence felt. He never knows when to give up, and looks like being one of the top-notehers in later matches. Revelling in such conditions, centreman Alan Dalton opened the game, marked superbly and lead out well. This boy is rapidly reaching his ex-South Australian form. Alan Morley, on the wing, played his usual consistent, honest game, as did Pat Quinlan at full-back. Others to show out were G. Miller', Ted Lambert and coach Johnny Quinn.

"Sonny" Sambrook, ruck and half­back, starred for Newtown in their fine win over Norths, andfeas well supported by Greg Schrofaer and Jack Weston, the latter playing his best game for the season. Another feature in the win was the supremacy of the centre line in Ron Grose, B i l l Cottis and Al i ck Dickson.

Peter Elkins, at full-back for the Robins, gave a faultless display of solid defence. His clearing dashes, ball handling and kicking were features of good all round play. Arthur Waghorn gave great drive from the packs when roving and was always

dangerous when resting in the forward pocket. Lionel Byrne, as usual, did most of the heavy work i n the ruck. In the general field play he excelled with towering marks and long kicks. Jim Thomas followed his great game against St. George wi th another grand display in the centre.

Wal Atkinson, playing his first first-grade game and taking over the centre half-back position after Fitzpatrick left the field injured, was the star of the Tigers' defence wi th his straight through play and long driving drop kicks right down the centre. Pat McGrane, Terry Hunan, Jack Court­ney, Lee Nivin, Col Harris and Mick Barnett were also in top form.

Bruce Stubley again gave a splendid display at full-back for the Southern­ers. His spoiling tactics, marking and kicking were superb. Barry Thomp­son, on the wing, gave drive from the centre and revealed top form. B i l l Dunlop, John Fohrman and Tony Yard rucked hard all day and wi th Ron Keay as rover, the red and green Jerseyed men had a feast of the ball. Kevin Batchelor turned in another good game on the half-forward flank.

HIGH-HIGH LOW-LOW Pardon the Chinese heading, be­

cause i t has reference here only to football.

Two Sydney teams have set a "doubles" record this season.

"High-High" goes to Sydney-Naval 28-23 (91) to win against Bankstown. and 18-11 (119) to lose against Wests.

Balmain takes the "Low-Low" 5-8 (38) to win against Norths, and 1-9 (15) to lose to Wests.
