DID YOU KNOW 

THAT  the following is an important message from Terry Gittings,  Chairman of Napier OBM and the NZ Marist Rugby Federation……

8th February 2022

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Greeting All  –  It is with great disappointment that NZ Marist have had to cancelled the 91st Spillane Tournament 2022.  The decision has been made following feedback from our member clubs, the Taupo District Council and tournament organisers.

The safety and wellbeing of all participants must be at the forefront of our minds during this time.

The emergence of Covid-19 community cases with the Omicron variant, and the nationwide change in traffic light system has brought a cascade of event cancellations;  the 91st NZ Marist Spillane Cup Tournament unfortunately is just another casualty in this regard.

“We thank all our Marist clubs, sponsors and volunteers who have helped in the lead up to the Spillane in March this year, as such I applaud you all for your unwavering commitment to NZ Marist.”

I am sure all NZ Marist clubs will still be able to engage in our sport for the remainder of the season, albeit likely at a local level at this time.

Your NZ Marist Committee will be working tirelessly to distribute event information as it evolves with the Marist rugby family, one of those being our planning for a very successful NZ Marist Colts tour in 2022.

Please feel free to contact me any time.

Yours in Marist Rugby
Terry Gittings
Chairman

DID YOU KNOW 

THAT  an important message to all players.  –  Make 2022 the year you bring along a new player to pre-season training.  We are always on the lookout for new talent as we will have vacancies in all teams…..  Invite your friends to  Team up with the Greens’  in 2022.

Flashback   Marist players vs Taradale from front:  Bob Kerr, Jim Benson, Pat Benson, Irishman Gene McCarthy, Brent Nelson, John Luoni.  McWilliams-Maddison Trophy semifinal the earlier loss to Taradale was avenged in this clash with a fine forward dominated effort by 25-13 win.

THAT  on Friday evening it was a 70th Birthday hosted by brother Pat that turned out to be more of a reunion of former NOBM players and other rugby associates that had played alongside utility tight forward Jim Benson.  There were certainly quite a few former Marist Men that hadn’t been seen in our club circles of recent times and many a former games was replayed; ‘remember the time…………”.  Many a yarn was spun about earlier days in the green and gold.   These occasions are precious, renewing contact with old team mates.  And not forgetting the man of the moment – Hope you enjoyed your birthday Jim

(Pic ex ‘TeamTalk’  Sept 1982)

THAT we extend our Hearty Congratulations to our NOBMCC Premier cricketers who took out the  T20 Final last Friday evening at Forest Gate Domain, Ongaonga.  Pictured here is the Sideline Bar NOBM Premiers captain Josh Paerau receiving the Murray McKearney Cup from HBCA Chairman James Rainger.

 

HERE AND THERE with McGoo   …….  THERE’S A FEW . . . Hawke’s Bay Magpies plying their trade offshore during the off season. Lolani Faeiva and Dennon Robertson-Bartlett at the Toronto Arrows along with HB Magpies scrum coach Francisco Deformes.   Utility back Caleb Makene has linked up with the Utah Warriors. Namatai Waa, Austin Gilgronis and Brendon O’Connor at Rugby New York.

AIDEN MARKRAM . . . the current South African Proteas off-break bowler has the distinction of having a Pallendrome surname.  The 27 year olds name can be spelt the same from either end.

WITH . . . the MotoGP season about to commence shortly and bikes this season rumoured to be even faster.  Just how fast are they now?  Well the quickest speed ever recorded belongs to Frenchman Johann Zarco.  Aboard a Ducati the 31 year old clocked an incredible 362.4klm/h or 225mph. Incidentally Ducati actually hold the fastest 10 MotoGP speeds ever recorded.

CORRECTION . . . to last weeks piece on Sam McNicol.  He is not assisting the HB Tuis,  he is infact helping Te Aute College with his new RDO  role at the Hawke’s Bay Rugby Union.

THERE’S BEEN . . . a few more birthday celebrations happening on this past week.  Former Marist Prems frontrower Jim Benson hit 70 in Auckland and across the Tasman Ivan Hill and former Magpies coach Mark Ozich celebrated another lap around the sun.

STILL . . . across the ditch my eldest grandie Bentley Neilson was back in action on the track in Perth last weekend. In the Zone 1 qualifying event held over two days in Rockingham he managed to qualify in all of his five events for the WA State Champs in March. In doing so Bentley smashed out four PBs too.  Finals placings were:- First in Long Jump, 1st 100m, 3rd 800m, 4th in the 400 and 200m.

AND NOW . . . a bit of a laugh, a quote from a well known British comedian.”Rugby is a game for big buggers. If you’re not a big bugger, you get hurt. I wasn’t a big bugger but I was a fast bugger and therefore I avoided the big buggers.”  – Spike Milligan

Cheers McGoo

IRISH LOGIC   –   A good friend is like a four leaf clover.  Hard to find but lucky to have.

   THAT the  91st SPILLANE TOURNAMENT – 2022   that was to have been hosted by Taupo Marist in association with New Zealand Marist Federation at Owen Delaney Park – Saturday 12 March  &  Sunday 13 March​​​​​​​  has been cancelled due to the current  Covid  and the Omicron variant  pre-cautions.

 

 

THAT a reminder to all NOBM players – Pass the word around amongst your team mates and also any likely New Players your know of  –  be they family, friends or workmates.  We have vacancies in all grades from  Colts  through to  Premiers.  Remind them to  – 
“Team up with the  ‘GREEN MACHINE’ in 2022  –  New Players always WELCOME

THAT  FLASHBACK to 1972  –  The Seniors were again ‘pipped at the post’, losing to Marist St Pats who ran out winners by 15-6 in the Spillane Final at Hamilton.  Our kindred  Marist Cricket Club completed a great double by winning both the Senior and 2nd grade  competitions.  The Marist rugby and cricket clubs’ stalwart Keith Falvey was elected Club President for 1972.

The retirements at the end of last season seriously effected the performance of the club’s Senior team  who were faced with a rebuilding period under coach Trevor Harris.    McLean Park was the venue of the first ‘live telecast’ of a major rugby fixture in New Zealand – Australia versus Hawkes Bay which saw a deserved 15-14 win to the home team.

The ‘iron man’ of Hawkes Bay and Marist rugby Neil Thimbleby retired after a record 158 games for the Bay.  A first for the club was the commencement of the popular  ‘Past & Present Players Days’.  A well patronised event which still features on the club’s calender.  ‘Sportsman of the Year’  for 1972 were our Under 23 team co-coaches – Blair Furlong and Gary Condon.  Great to see some of our ‘stars’ of the past giving something back to the game and their club.  An example to all retiring players.   The 1972 Club ‘Sportmen of the Year’ –  Blair Furlong & Gary Condon

THAT here is another Flashback  – That browsing through an earlier edition (September 1982) of Team Talk recently, came across a title ‘GOAL POSTS’  It was a fine effort when our Senior 3 five-eight Kevin Weipeihana single handedly beat the opposition Tech when his team won 9-6.  Kev ‘potted’ 3 drop goals for all of Marist points.

The last time Marist registered three field goals in an outing was about half a century ago  –  when former Marlborough rep Sam O’Brien fresh up from the top of the south slotted 3.   Reliable sources at the time informed us that one was even a punt !

The Leprauchan Comments
An Englishman visiting Dublin took a taxi to see the city. The Englishman asked his driver “What’s that building there?”
“That’s the Millennium Tower,” replied the cabbie.
How long did it take to build that?” “About 6 years,” replied the cabbie.
“6 years? We build them twice as high, twice as wide and four times as long in London, and we do it in 1 year.”
A while later the cab driver passes another large building. “What’s that building over there?” asked the Englishman.
“That’s the Burlington Hotel,” replied the cabbie.
“How long did it take to build that?”
“About three years” replied the cabbie.
“Three years? We build hotels twice as high, three times as long and four times as wide in London, and it only takes us about 6 months.”
Soon after the now annoyed Irish cabbie drives past Dublin Castle.
“What’s that building there?” asks the Englishman, pointing at the castle. “Danged if I know,” replied the cabbie,
“It wasn’t here when I drove by last week.”



At an pub in Glasgow a wealthy tourist announced that he had lost his wallet containing £10,000 and would give a reward of £100 to the person who found it.
From the back of the pub a Scott shouted, “I’ll give £150!”


An Englishman, a Scotsman and an Irishman were discussing close races in the pub. “The closest race I ever saw,” said the Scotsman, “was a horse race, in which a horse, stung by a bee, won by the length of the swelling on his nose.”
“The closest race I ever saw,” bragged the Englishman, “was a car race, in which one of drivers won by the breadth of a coat of paint.”
“Dat’s nothing,” said the Irishman. “The closest race I ever saw is the English.”
