Why would you play for Old Boys Marist ?
We have a simple philosophy at Napier Old Boys Marist – that we are a well organised rugby club both on and off the field, we are fit, disciplined, well coached and our players are very loyal. Our teams are always well presented.
At Napier Old Boys Marist we promote a strong work ethic, we play with a special passion and honesty which is fun to be part of, but we also expect our players to carry that honesty through to their work and personal lives.
In summary we as a club will create a positive environment so that players can expect to progress in their rugby careers. To excel players must also take responsibility for their rugby and life in general.

Maddison Trophy Rd.4
NOBM PREMIER 71 CENTRAL SPORTS 7
The Weather Gods had done their job and had the ground looking fantastic. We had a few more players back from their hospital beds and we had the boys from down the line ready to give us a hard game of footy. There was a disturbance in the force with the absence of the members of the Lauano family and one Coach Gowler. Yep Johnny’s wedding was on the same day and the boys gave them a nice little victory as a wedding present.
Up steps Glenn Donaldson fresh from the capital to fill Gowlers shoes for the day and with the steady hand of Steve Bennett at the helm, the boys were well tended to. The game started with a couple of quick tries to Young Ricky Hayes and was quickly responded to by the CHB team. But after that little scare the team focused and tried to keep the ball in hand and started to show off the razzle dazzle, we are famous for.
Tries were coming thick and fast with an effort to try and keep the ball wide and run their forwards around the park. There were a lot of smiles on our supporters faces as we could finally see the combinations starting to gel which is going to be vital when it gets to the business end of the season. Even the managers were not having to use the oxygen tanks this week which I must say was great.
After such a good win the biggest bonus was there was zero injuries which was very pleasing to our physio team. Our standouts this week was 3 for Ricky the burglar Heays, 2 goes to Our big Aussie lock Alex Williams and 1 point goes to Hacksaw number 13 George Stratton.
Next week we will be back at Tremain Field to face the old foes of Pirates please let’s see you all there to support the lads.

NOBM PREMIER RESERVE 7 MARAENUI 37
The Richard Kepka NOBM Premier Reserves took on Maraenui on a sunny winters day at Tremain. Our boys again started slow and spent most of the fiRst half defending. We went into the break down 15-7 with a cheeky try from Paul Lapa and the subsequent conversion from Adam our only reward.
Having defended for 30 of the first 40 minutes our boys were confident the game was anyones. However Maraenui came out hungrier and were clearly the fitter and better team in the second half and turned their possession into points rolling in 4 second half tries to takeout the game convincingly by 37-7.
Special mention to the colts boys who had a bye today for numbering up and helping us out, another tight tussle versus Pirates awaits us next weekend.

A bit of a slow start but we picked it up later in the game and would have caught them up if the ref hadn’t called the game off early

DID YOU KNOW
THAT it does beg the question as to just what our whistlers who we know endeavour to do their best actually see. Judging by the amount of high tackles that have again begun to creep well up from chest high to near strangulation of their opponent as seen in the shot above from last weeks outing at Farndon Park. With a referee and two TJ’s as well surely at least one of three sets of eyes must be capable of picking up some of these indiscretions which are becoming much more frequent. You rarely go to a club game now without seeing it coming back into the game.
THAT with a New Zealand – Australian ’bubble’ currently being considered going forward for Super Rugby 2021, the possible format being proposed by NZ Rugby’s Aratipu review is a bit rich. NZ Rugby’s suggestion that the five NZ franchises will face off against the three original Australian franchises ie the Reds, Waratahs and Brumbies in an eight team inter-Tasman competition in 2021. This leaves the Rebels and Western Force who are playing in the current Australian domestic comp to literally ‘go fishing’. If this is to happen then let it be a true ANZAC ‘bubble’.
I reckon NZ should stick to their knitting and let the Aussies decide their own future and just how many teams they wish to enter. What’s wrong with a 10 team Super Rugby competition in 2021? The outcome of this will be keenly awaited.
As for the prospect of NZ Rugby driving for an All Blacks – Kangaroos hydrid match, well there doesn’t appear to be much interest coming from the NRL and to quote NZR CEO Mark Robinson “They might have got cold feet – we’re not sure.” And that’s the way it should be just concentrate of playing our own national game the way it should be and doing it well. Maybe some of our national administrators have been in lock-down too long and dreamed up these loopy ideas.
THAT our onboard chefs Rick & Sue wish to extend their THANKS to our members and families who have been supporting the continuation of their popular Thursday Night Roasts. They also look forward to seeing you all once again next Thursday. Pass the word around to your team mates and members to come along for a great meal.
Remember >>> This year we will be taking your order which will need to be placed by Wednesdays >>> text or pmsg SUE 0272 955 033.
THAT here is another old Irish proverb – Lie down with dogs and you’ll rise with fleas.
THAT a reminder to our members and supporters that the tickets in our 2020 ‘200 Club’ lottery are currently being distributed and at this stage we still have a limited few available for sale in our major annual club fundraiser which originally kicked-off back in 1991, the year our new club was launched.
In the past the major prize has been a trip for two persons to an All Black test match, including return air fares and two nights accommodation. Due to the uncertainty of if and when the AB’s will play this year it has been decided that the equivelant value of the major prize will be travel and accommodation voucher of your choice which can be arranged with our travel agent Stephen Jennings. It could also be spread over several trips. There will also be the usual weekly cash prizes which will be drawn at the clubrooms each Saturday commencing on Saturday 19 July.
If YOU haven’t already purchased or paid for your ticket or would like to join in this popular club lottery please contact organiser Bill Halpin 0275 783 353 or Eddie Wilson 0274 470 330 and we will arrange to hold a ticket for you this week.
THAT there is no doubt about it players getting buried in the bottom of a ruck or maul after a tackle and unable to get clear of the ball get penalised which could cost their team dearly. One would really like to see some of these lawmakers get themselves in the same situation and see just how the get themselves clear. It just doesn’t happen. So isn’t it about time they revised what is becoming a farce ? There just was another example of this last night in the much heralded Crusaders – Blues showdown…
THAT It’s been a few years since McGoo’s Here and There appeared. With lockdown and no sport happening Eddie offered me a chance to reprise my former sports column that used to appear in the local club and rep rugby programs. I’ve rummaged up some old gems from a few years back with the odd new bits too.
ANOTHER . . . great turnout (from what I hear) for another club roast night of the season on Thursday. Roast beef and Yorkshire pudding sure went down a treat on what was a cold night. No meal total this week from me coz I was crook at home…so we did the takeaway option. Cheers Rick and Sue. (2020)
BEING . . . an avid fan of ledgendary US 70s band Steely Dan I was somewhat amused to see Counties Manukau use it as the name for their mascot. Fair enough they have a steel mill at the heart of their province, but do they really know what a Steely Dan is? It’s an American slang term for a metal dildo. (1999)
IN THE . . . opening three rounds of this years Tui Maddison Trophy there’s been a total of 120 tries scored including four penalty tries. And there’s been 26 penalties kicked along with 76 conversions. (2020)
RECENTLY . . . featured in the lead up to the Bledisloe Cup test in Sydney was John Dougan the chirpy former Wellington Lions 1st five and Hawke’s Bay Magpies 2nd five (Havelock North). Dougan has the distinction of scoring the first four point try in a test match, which he did so against Australia in 1972. Dougan was a long time Aussie resident and passed away in Sydney in November 2006. The first five point try in a test was also by an All Black playing the Wallabies, Va’aiga Tuigamala in 1992. (1999/2020)
WITH JOHNNY . . . Lauano’s wedding this Saturday I pose this question… When was the last time a Napier Old Boys Marist match day squad had no Lauano’s in it? I always thought getting married in the footy season was a Cardinal Sin, nah that’s right he used to be a Cardinal from Malaysia as I recall. (2020)
JOHN PULLIN . . . the former English hooker told the occasional one-liner, most famous of these was when the Poms played in Ireland in 1973 after Wales and Scotland had declined to do so for security reasons in 1972. England, as was their want, lost. “We may not be very good,” Pullin, their captain, said, “but at least we turned up.” (1996)
I KNOW . . . it ain’t sport. But it was great to hear one of my favourite sayings to something where the answer is quite obviously yes crop up on Shorty Street this week. “Is the Pope Catholic?” (2020)
HERE’S . . . a thought and a bit of fun too with our 30th anniversary on the field coming up in 2021, why don’t we come up with a Napier Old Boys Marist 1st XV since amalgamation? Some Midfielders to ponder:- Mark Jackman, Gary Exeter, Waka Petera, Clint Chamberlain, Bevan Lynch, Manu Petera, Mark Collier, Sam Giddens, Sam Weber. Feel free to contact me with your thoughts to:- mcgoo@hotmail.co.nz (2020)
Cheers McGoo

THEY SAID IT
“It’s going to be a hell of a collision this weekend around mindset and intensity.”
Crusaders assistant coach Scott Hansen pre his sides clash with the Blues.
“You’ve got to get your first tackle in early, even if it’s late.”
Welsh hardman Ray Gravell explains his rugby philosophy.
“Just like in rugby, the pinnacle was playing for the All Blacks. That was always a massive thing. But you never speak it outwardly because it can sound stupid. But if you don’t have massive dreams, you might as well stay in bed.”
Sonny Bill Williams.

Pass the Word Around
Come along and join our club in 2020
Update Satuday.11 July
Great day for Netball Clovers played HHSOG The game improved each 1/4 and what was exciting the team became more confident as the game went on. Very impressed with the attacks throughout the game. When changes were made the game lost its structure and flow only 1 change of position or player in a 1/4 will assist cohesion and flow of the game. Also some very intensive defending by our defence Specially Jazz she hunted and defended the ball throughout the game, and was backed up by Becs who cleared the ball well. For all players just keep playing don’t second guess let the umpires rule the game. Both Alazae and Mekhi had great games Mekhi had some great paces into the shoots. The 2 shoots played very well together a new combination GS playing the base leaving GA to play the top Such a great game. We came 2nd. 26-20 POD – WA.
Kylie Jones Celtics played Celtics from Hastings we should have won this game by 10 goals, again to many changes in a 1/4 the 3 drive 1/4 was sublime straight lines patience confidence allowing the shoots to do their job. The defence of Emma Sharesa and Wd closed the Celtics attack down in the 3rd ¼. The team will improve and I expect them to be put up a grade by the end of the round. This team needs the young ones to speed up the game and have the opposing defence on the back foot which happened often. When we played our game with confidence it was great. Great spectator game POD – Anthers, I also think Bridget at C and WA and an amazing feeder game, and drove to the top of the goal circle and was available to pass into the shooters Won 36-35 The over 40’s are having a break will be back on the court in a weeks time.

The Leprauchan Comments
An Irishman goes to the doctor, who after examining him says
“You have some problems with your heart, but if you take these tablets, I think it will be okay.
“So the doctor gives the man the tablets and the patient asks,
“Do I have to take them every day?”
No,” replies the doctor, “take one on the Monday, skip the Tuesday, take one on the Wednesday, skip the Thursday and go on like that.
“Two weeks later the doctor is walking down the street, and he sees the patient’s wife.“Hello Mrs Murphy,” he says, “how’s your husband?”
“Oh he died of a heart attack,” says Mrs Murphy.
“I’m very sorry to hear that,” says the doctor, “I thought if he took those tablets he would be all right.”
“Oh the tablets were fine,” says Mrs Murphy,
“It was all the bloody skipping that killed him!”
A devout Australian cowboy lost his favorite Bible while he was mending fences out on the range.
Three weeks later, a kangaroo walked up to him carrying the Bible in its mouth.
The cowboy couldn’t believe his eyes.
He took the precious book out of the kangaroos mouth, raised his eyes heavenward and exclaimed, “It’s a miracle!”
“Not really,” said the kangaroo. “Your name is written inside the cover.”
Bruce’s teenage son had just passed his driving test and asked his dad if he could borrow the ute.
Bruce was not all that keen on his pisshead son hooning around in his beloved V8 Holden so he set some conditions;
You bring your grades up from a C to a B average, study your bible a little, and get your hair cut. Then we’ll talk about the ute’
The son thought about that for a moment, decided he’d settle for the offer, and they agreed on it.
After about six weeks his Bruce said, ‘mate, you’ve brought your grades up and I noticed that you have been studying your bible, but you haven’t had your hair cut.
The boy said, ‘You know, Dad, I’ve noticed in my studies of the bible that Samson had long hair, John the Baptist had long hair, Moses had long hair…and there’s even strong evidence that Jesus had long hair.’
To this his Bruce replied, ‘Yes, and did you also notice they all walked everywhere they went?’
Paddy and Mick are walking down the road and Paddy’s got a bag of doughnuts in his hand.
Paddy says to Mick, “If you can guess how many doughnuts are in my bag, you can have them both”
