Report Of Rugby Tour

Criticised

Prom Our Own Correspondent SUVA. July 10.

REPORTS that arrangements have been made at Sydney for a Fijian Rugby tour of Australia in 1951 have been neither confirmed nor denied by the Fiji Rugby Union.

In the meantime, there has been sharp criticism in and out of the press by Fijians and Europeans who insist that as Fiji is indebted almost exclusively to New Zealand for its Rugby, a Dominion tour should be made to return the Maori team’s 1948 visit before any tour of Aus tralia is contemplated.
