Walter Milne (rugby)

Walter Henry Milne (5 August 1884 – 19 July 1968) was a New Zealand rugby league footballer who played in the 1910s.

He played 8 matches for them in that season and made 5 appearances for Southland against Otago (twice), Wellington, Auckland, and Canterbury.

It was rumoured that he could have gained selection for the Otago side but he moved to the North Island before the end of the season.

He switched codes to rugby league in 1911 and represented New Zealand on the 1911 tour of Australia.

[6] In 1936 in an article in the Manawatu Standard it was said that Milne moved to Sydney and played rugby league there "for some years" however this may have been 1912 and possibly later in the decade as he played rugby league for Opunake and the Taranaki representative side in 1913.
