To quote the site directly:
Wales Team v England 7th January 1899.
Wales (26) v England (3) played at St Helens.
Wales (26) v England (3) played at St Helens.

Again my (maternal) great-grandfather's name is erroneously spelt 'Hussey.'
It does not say the positions etc. but he generally played Wing for Cardiff and Wales and was/became Vice Captain of both.
