Match Notes
Barry Norris was used as an illegal replacement after Wide Bay lost 2 players before halftime apparently the British Capt Williams agreed for the replacement but British management did not and called him from the field before halftime. He returned to the field with the team in the second half despite protests from the British management even then Wide Bay finished the match with only 10 players.
