List was then selected by Thomas McClymont to make his second appearance for North Island in their inter island match with the South Island. In some remarks by the Herald they said “List is playing in good form at present and deserves a place in the three-quarter line”. They also suggested he “has all the credentials of a fullback”. The North Island won at Carlaw Park by 52 points to 23. List scored 3 tries at centre, the first coming when he “fended his way through in fine style” before two more in the second half.
