Stratford
There seems to be some confusion... contrary to NZRU's article, it appears that Dewar moved to Stratford in 1913, having played for nearby Hawera from 1910. I could be mistaken.

For the move, see: Previous articles show him playing for Hawera.

Shield defence
I've uncovered plenty of contemporaneous articles dealing with these games. I'll flesh out the final sentence in Rugby career into a proper paragraph. FunkyCanute (talk) 11:20, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

Flags in infobox
As per MOS:INFOBOXFLAG we should avoid the use of flags in the infobox. So I removed the flag next to the New Zealand flag. -- Shudde  talk 09:11, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
