The Overall placing of the team (third) was a fair reflection of their ability. A gradual improvement was discernible but the lack of finishing power was more apparent still.

Perhaps with a little more dash amongst the forwards we could have reached second place. The lass of Marion McNeill-Adams proved an enormous blow to morale, and there is no doubt that the team could have been fitter.

Thrashed by the Otago and Australian teams, well beaten by Auckland, Victoria managed two fairly good wins against Canterbury and Massey.
