I have seen a number of Soccer matches-in Sydney since my arrival in Australia earlier this 'year: Individually, some of your players are excellent-but the tactical play is bad, due, I think, to insufficient coaching on present-day
European standards. . '

Moreland, though, have a better goal percentage than the Hillmen, and should they win they could take second place, Both Prah~ ran and Park Rangers are level on points with Moreland, . and either could take second place, should Box Hill fie defeated, The most interesting of the other gameswill be the battle against relegation in which Sun~ shine United and Yallourn will be striving in their gamesagainst Western Suburbs and South Yarra, Western Suburbs cannot avoid relega~ tion, but only a point separatesYallourn and Sunshine. South Sunshine win and Yallourn lose, Yallourn will drop to the relegation, zone, and will then find it hard to escape,for in the last league match they have to meet the strong Park Rangers side at Middle Park, If the position is reversed, relegation will be deciqed, as Yallourn would be three clear points ahead of Sunshine, with only one match to go, The remaining game, Brighton versus Bradford, 'at Hurlingham Park, should seeBrighton continue its undefeated re~ord, They have already won the first division title, so little hinges on the result, Ih d d' " n t e secon 1V1S10n, Sou th Melb 0 urne United will be strivng to hang on to a two~
