Crowd 3, 000. Played at the Sydney Cricket Ground, </p> <blockquote><p> Following Newton's kick off, Challis found the line cleverly, and a moment or two latter Messenger kicked a penalty goal. Eastern Suburbs, 2 point to nil. Newtown's backs then combined nicely, but Bain missed a penalty from an easy position. Newtown continued the attack, but were driven back in turn by Gilbert and Watkins. Once a fine effort by Ryan, from a breaking scrummage looked dangerous but the subsequent faulty combination of Talbot and Brown spoilt the opportunity. Newtown's lack of finish a few minutes later caused a break down just when a score seemed imminent. Rigney then retired with an injured knee’ Bain falling back to the last line whilst Collins was requisitioned for the wing. Even play followed for a while, and then Capless after a splendid pass from Male, made a brilliant fending run and scored. Messenger scored a goal. Eastern Suburbs, 7 points to nil. Ryan, playing, the best forward game on the ground, put in a great effort and with support carried play to the Eastern Suburbs twenty-five. Here Gillespie short kicked over the line, and M Cue following fast scored. Bain failed at goal. Eastern Suburbs 7 point-; Newtown 3 The scores were unaltered at half time.</p></blockquote> <blockquote> <p>Newtown slightly reorganised their back division. Bain coming back to centre, and Brown acted as fullback, and the result proved the efficiency of this alteration. Eastern Suburbs were very formidable for a while, and only the Alertness of Collins on one occasion saved the situation for Newtown. The Newtown forwards, with Ryan and Townsend very prominent, began to trouble their opponents and after a succession of snappy attacks, Bain kicked for the comer, and Collins made a good try. Brown's kick dropped short Eastern Suburbs 7 points, Newtown 6. Play became highly exciting and both teams put forward great efforts, after many tense moments Newtown came again with an irresistible rush and from the scramble Larkin scored, Bain missed the goal. Newtown 9, Eastern Suburbs 7. A few minutes later Messenger made scores equal with a neat penalty goal - 9 points each. Again the Newtown pack rushed play to their opponents' zone, and Bain again using the cross-kick cleverly, paved the way for Collins to score his second try P. A. McQue converted, Newtown 14 points to 9. Eastern Suburb’s prospects appeared very poor but In a flash an opportunity came, a scrummage at midfield gave Male possession, and the half-back sent out a lob pass to Cubltt, who took the ball cleverly and went through the opposition with a characteristic dodgy run. Gilbert then joined in, and carried the ball to well within Newtown twenty-five, where a final pass sent White in between 'the posts. A splendid try, Messenger scored a goal. 14 points all This were the full time score. </p><p> .<i><a href="/wiki/Sydney_Morning_Herald" class="mw-redirect" title="Sydney Morning Herald">Sydney Morning Herald</a></i></p></blockquote> <ul><li>Premiership Round 10, Monday 26 June 1916,</li></ul> <p><a href="/wiki/Sydney_Roosters" title="Sydney Roosters">Eastern Suburbs</a> <b>12</b> defeated North Sydney <b>6</b>(G.Green, Deane Tries) at Agricultural Ground. </p> <ul><li>Premiership Round 11, ??? 1 July 1916,</li></ul> <p><a href="/wiki/Sydney_Roosters" title="Sydney Roosters">Eastern Suburbs</a> <b>24</b> ( <a href="/wiki/Les_Cubitt" title="Les Cubitt">Cubbitt</a> <b>2</b>, <a href="/wiki/Harry_Caples" title="Harry Caples">Caples</a>, +1 <a href="/wiki/Try_(rugby)" title="Try (rugby)">Tries</a>; <a href="/wiki/Wally_Messenger" title="Wally Messenger">Messenger</a> <b>3</b>, +3 <a href="/wiki/Goal_(sport)" class="mw-redirect" title="Goal (sport)">Goals</a>) defeated South Sydney ??( <a href="/wiki/Rex_Norman" title="Rex Norman">Rex Norman</a> <b>2</b>; G.McGowan <b>2</b> Goals). </p><p>South, who were previously unbeaten, led 10-9 with just 15 minutes remaining. The Tricolours finished with two late tries to Les Cubbitt and one to fullback Harry Caples, in what was described as "one of the most exciting finishes to a match in years". </p> <ul><li>Premiership Round 12, Saturday 8 July 1916,</li></ul> <p><a href="/wiki/Sydney_Roosters" title="Sydney Roosters">Eastern Suburbs</a> <b>5</b>3 ( <a href="/wiki/Herb_Gilbert" title="Herb Gilbert">Gilbert</a> <b>4</b> ( Cubbitt 4, + 3 Tries; W.

Play was taken to Glebe's territory, but a penalty sent tho ball back L. Burge was then conspicuous for Glebe, but his transfer for Frank Burge went astray just as an excellent opening presented itself. The game was good, with both combinations exerting their utmost. The ‘spotting’ of the respective halfbacks and centres was excellent, Caples and Watkins (playing as an extra centre) for Eastern Suburbs, doing some particularly good work. Glebe, however, were playing strongly, and, although frequcntly checked, they tried persistently to break through their clever opponents. </p> </blockquote> <blockquote><p> At last they were successful! with a neat penalty goal by A. Bollewski. Glebe two pointa to nil. Eastern suburbs then showed wonderful energy, and quickly carried everything before them, Watkins, Williamis, Duffy and Caplés in turn did something for their side, and then from an irresistible rush on Glebe's line Pearce threw himself over, with half a dozen Glebe men endeavouring to check his dive. Barker scored a goal. Eastern Suburbs, 5 Glebe, 2 . A great struggle ensued , the pace being terrific, with the tackling as effective as has ever been exhibited in first class football. Watkins, <a href="/wiki/Henry_Bolewski" title="Henry Bolewski">Henry Bolewski</a>, Gilbert, Caples, and Duffy were very determined in this phase of the play. Man after man were brought down, but still the thrilling attacks continued to the delight the big crowd. Some of the movements were so rapid, the ball being handled by so many men on each side, that it was impossible to follow them. But it may be said that the spectacular league gime has never produced so much excitement At half time the scores were. Eastern Suburbs, 5 Glebe, 2. </p></blockquote> <blockquote> <p>Then Eastern Suburbs went off again vigorously, and a nippy movement by Mckellar, Watkins and Jonas carried play to a handy position, but a little later Proctor, notwithstanding a formidable rush, cleared magnificently. Then Lego followed with a dash along touch, but Just as Glebe appeared likely to score the winger, in endeavouring to centre, miss kicked into touch. Eastern Suburbs' alertness, a second or two later was completely outwitted by a resourceful movement by J. Butler, from the heels of a scrummage at the Eastern Suburbs twenty-five But1er got the ball and set off round the open side, Eastern Suburbs fanned out to block the way, but the ex South Sydney man gave the ‘dummy’ pass, ran straight ahead, and passed on the ‘blind ' side to L. Burge to Pert, who ran over. It was a brilliant strategy. A. Bolewski's kick hit the post. Five points all. Play afterwards, though even, was still of the highest order with, Eastern Suburbs keeping a tight grip on the game, which a little later again swung in their favour. After attacking continuously for a time Male started a movement in which Csaples, Watkins Mckellar, Gilbert, and Jonnas were prominent. The last named player had an opening to the corner, as the result of Gilbert cleverly 'drawing' the defence before transferring to his flank man. The plan of attack was well conceived, and beautifully executed Watkins failed at goal. Eastern Suburbs 8 points; Glebe 5. Towards the close, Glebe made numerous efforts to equalise the scores but their opponents defence was too sound, and stalled them off. It was a remarkably brilliant and eventful game. </p> </blockquote> <ul><li>Premiership Round 14, Saturday 22 July 1916,</li></ul> <p>Balmain <b>8</b> defeated <a href="/wiki/Sydney_Roosters"
