The Phillips name does not appear the team squad for the one and only match found so far against the14th Regiment in 1868.
However, he may have played as substitute for a player/s who failed to turn up.
He says in the early sixties, 1868 is the late sixties. Perhaps he was mistaken, or was the it the 1861 Carlton/Royal Park team?
