Updates to what I had written previously

[edit]

Hello, today I have updated the introduction and added a section "Professional Rugby". I am attempting to briefly explain how the start-up of Rugby League in NSW and the visit of the professional rugby team from New Zealand sparked interested in Queensland. I have also expanded on the Representative section with respect to matches played against New Zealand and New Zealand Maori. I've not yet read an account of every match, but I felt the 1st match in Queensland (against NZ) and the 4th Queensland v Maori match were worth expanding upon. The Club section remains a little light. I intend to expand upon it. Nhoj1898 (talk) 07:58, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The New Zealand tour section has been expanded to include the death of Baskerville, who had organised, administered and played in the team. He died on a Wednesday and the New Zealanders had to play Queensland three days later. Have used quotes from and summarised that match, a 12-all draw. The Inter-State section has also been expanded, with a match (Sydney v Queensland) previously missed, now added. A few sentences have been added to the club section.
