Intercolonial Matches

edit
1st New South Wales – Queensland Intercolonial Football Match
Saturday, 12 August 1882
New South Wales   4G & 4T — 1G   Queensland
Tries: Walker, Raper (4), Flynn
Goals: Creer (0/1), Macnamamee (0/2), Flynn (1/2), McLean (1/1)
Drop goals: Raper, Pell
 [42]
 Goals: Pritchard (0/1)
Drop goals: Feez
Association Ground
Attendance: 3000–4000
Referee: R. Arnold

Note: Under the rules then in place for determining the winner, the result was four goals and four tries to one goal. New South Wales' four goals comprised the two converted tries (or touch-downs) and the two drop-goals. The additional four tries were the unsuccessful conversion goal kicks for four out of the six touch-downs. Queensland failed with a penalty place kick at goal, but were successful with a drop goal.

Following their win over the Wallaroo Club on Saturday, 19 August, the Queensland team requested the opportunity to again meet a combined New South Wales side, in a return match. After consultation with the shipping company on which the Queensland team were booked to depart Sydney, arrangements were made to kick-off this second intercolonial game at 2.30pm, Tuesday, and convey the team to the steamer shortly after the game concluded.[43]

2nd New South Wales – Queensland Intercolonial Football Match

Association Ground
Attendance: 500
Referee: Mulcahey

Note: The combined New South Wales team secured six touch-downs, with two of the attempts at goal being successful, and four missed tries. A feature of the game at the time is that when a kick at goal was missed, the defending team (in this case Queensland) would have options to either run the ball into general play or touch-down in their own in-goal to obtain relief.

edit
Main article: 1882 New South Wales rugby union tour of New Zealand

The Southern Rugby Football Union arranged for a New South Wales team to tour New Zealand, with the support of rugby union associations and the host venues. E. Raper from the University club was appointed captain and manager, with R. Thallon, of Balmain club, as secretary.[50] The team departed Sydney on August 30, 1882.[51]

The team comprised the following 16 players.[50][52][53]

Matches

edit

Match reports published in New Zealand newspapers were subsequently reprinted in Sydney newspapers. For example, a report on the opening match that initially appeared in The New Zealand Herald, and was later reprinted in The Sydney Morning Herald.[54]

Unlike Sydney's Southern Rugby Union, matches in New Zealand awarded points for goals and touchdowns. The points system in New Zealand was:[55]

  • 5 points for a goal from a try. Put another way, 5 points when the try for goal succeeds.
  • 2 points for a touchdown when the attempt at goal is missed. Put another way, 2 points when the try for goal fails.
  • 4 points for a goal from the field, as occurred in the 29 September match against Wellington,[56] and twice in the 3 October match against Auckland.[57]

Other Football Codes

edit

Match reports and other relevant articles in 1882 newspapers generally did not make an immediately obvious distinction between football codes. Several clubs played Australian Rules Football under the auspices, and in affiliation with, the New South Wales Football Association. In many instances, the code being reported on in newspapers could be determined by tries and touch-downs in Rugby Union and behinds in Australian Rules.

Australian Rules Football

The following New South Wales clubs played Australian rules football in the 1882 season.
