“Team up with a Winning Club in 2023”
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.

2023 Ray White NASH CUP
NAPIER OLD BOYS MARIST Premiers 35 – 5 HAVELOCK NORTH Premiers
Anderson Park on a gloomy Hawkes Bay day and the Hawkes Bay Challenge Shield up for grabs.
We started stronly and starved Havelock of any possession and after 9 mins Hannon Brighouse scored a great try from a lineout drive. Jonty obliged with the first conversion. Straight on attack from the restart and if it wasn’t for a few mistakes we would have put more points on the board. However in the 17th min new halfback to the club Kade Manuel ducked around the ruck for a great try. Jonty again added the conversion to make it 14 – 0. The rest of the 2nd half we fell away from our game plan and started pushing 50/50 passes and letting ourselves down and hosts Havelock into the game with a try. Half time up 14-5.
Straight after the break new to the club Mitch Gibson went over for a try and 3 mins later he had his 2nd. The back line showing that given an opportunity they will attack and thats what they did with another strong forward try to Josh Gimblet. Jonty added the conversion. The Wairoa wizard (Paorian Manuel-Harman) was next to dot down and is starting to show some of his form that he produced last year. Jonty added the conversion. Live wire Michael Beech was next to score and looks dangerous when he gets his hands on the ball. Jonty added the conversion. The 2nd half was pure poetry in motion with some of the best rugby I have seen this team produce. Full credit must be given to coaches Meachen and Wilson for their trust and ability to give the younger and new members of the squad full opportunity. Also Thanks to our supporters. See you Friday.

NAPIER OLD BOYS MARIST PREMIER Reserve 37 – 10 TARADALE PREMIER Reserves
The Richard Kepka Premier Reserves started off their season playing Taradale at home, always a tough club to play although on this occasion we started off with uncontested scrums so we weren’t sure what to expect. We started off on defence and held strong and the rest of the opening 20 minutes our forwards gave our backs good running ball and we scored through Kitiona, Dylan and James. The rain started to come down and handling errors and penalties halted our momentum, Kitiona grabbed his brace before Taradale slotted a penalty right on halftime, 20-3 at the break but we felt we should have had more.
The second half started with Taradale on attack, high tackles and repeated penalties cost us and Mandela found himself in the bin and Taradale crossed and converted to make it 20-10. More handling errors, confusion in the backs and the last passes not sticking had us a little frustrated, only leading by 10 with 20 minutes to play. However with a yellow card to one of their big men we finished strong and scored 3 further tries to Mandela, another for James and Hamiora at full time. Final score 37-10
Big Ali ran hard, Pio tackled staunch and the back 3 scored 5 of our 7 tries. Plenty to work on but a good result to start our campaign. Tries to Kitiona Moleli (2), James Mitchell (2), Dylan Kiwara, Mandela Sene, Hamiora Miringaorangi plus a conversion to Hamiora Miringaorangi (1)

NAPIER OLD BOYS MARIST Thirds 17 – 87 CLIVE
The main game at Tremain field saw the mighty ‘NOBM Thirds’ play the defending champions Clive in the opening game of the season. It was great to have a full squad and Coach Morrison had the boys humming in the warm-ups. Unfortunately Clive got half a dozen tries in the first half before we eventually got a superb try by man of the match Daniel Fridd to be down 7 – 36 at half time. The boys battled hard in the second half against the huge opposition and showed some good signs of what they will it be capable of doing against other teams this season with two Great tries later in the game by Vavao and Alevine. The Team has a great blend of youth and experience and we look forward to some exciting Games this season.

NAPIER OLD BOYS MARIST COLTS 15 – 42 HASTINGS RUGBY& SPORTS
With the 2023 season starting this weekend the boys were rearing to go! Our struggle for the season ahead is securing a healthy front row, with only having one being game fit this weekend it hindered the game somewhat. Thank you Chris for lending us Lenny from the 2nds.
Hastings came out strong with really good ball runners, and got out to an early lead. We finished the first half strong, being just 10 points down. We felt like we had the upper hand as we could see that Hastings we’re looking tired. Second half cost us the game with ill discipline and poor handling which coast us the game. Lots to work on for the season ahead. If you know of any front rowers that would be interested in playing for us please me us know, otherwise it will be a hard season ahead for us relying on our other club teams.

HERE and THERE . . .
Celebrating 28 years of News, Views, Opinion and Stats from the man in the stand . . .
ONE THING . . . I always love about visiting Aussie are some of the quirky Aboriginal place names that abound. So, my recent sojourn to Perth didn’t disappoint. For starters my eldest grandson’s athletic club is Yangebup. Further up the road north is one of our Aussie Marist affiliate rugby clubs Joondalup. But my favourite I spotted on the highway heading down south to Busselton down past Margaret River was Mandjoogoodap Drive! Try repeating that one over and over after a few drinks.
IN A SIMILAR . . . vain, the Aussies have some great names when it comes to selling alcohol. While down south spotted a pub just called the Pour Inn. And a bottle store nearby too, where we were staying was The Thirsty Camel. This place was a drive through with an express lane and a browsing lane!
WHILE . . . attending the 2023 WA Junior Track and Field Champs with my Perth whanau I couldn’t but like the wording on a sign just inside the main gate. “Poor behaviour will not be tolerated. Show respect to staff and volunteers at all times.”
BELIEVE IT . . . or not the two most played and participated sports in Western Australia are Swimming and Association Football (Soccer). Whereas the two most popular sports in Aussie are AFL and Rugby League. Rugby Union is down at number 10.
A FORMER . . . a fairly recent Green Machine midfield back has made his Premier Rugby debut in Perth this weekend. Find out who next weekend.
Cheers McGoo

THAT with the Super Rugby fixture between the Hurricanes v Western Force at Palmerston North this afternoon it brings to the for when did Hawkes Bay host a game McLean Park last ? Well for the record it was back in 2021 when the Canes hosted the same side which resulted the Hurricanes accounting for the Western Australian side to the tune of 43-6. Certainly a substantial winning result on this occasion to the home franchise.
Let’s have more games in future on a regular basis as our wider Hawkes Bay region has a substantial supporter base and the Hurricanes are the team our rugby followers mainly follow. And judging by the attendances at a number of other NZ super fixtures in general this season we’re sure to have greater support here in the Bay than some. So Hurricanes heirachy keep us foremost on your future schedules…….. And the Canes only just held their lead at the end finishing with a 45-42 win this afternoon in Palmie.
THAT an important message to all players. – Make 2023 the year you introduce a New Player or Supporter to our Club. We are always on the lookout for new talent as we will have vacancies in all teams …. Also support with team management as well as on the sidelines. Invite your friends to ‘Team up with the Greens in 2023” so we can have greater depth in numbers into the future for when we kick-off and about to commence our 2023 season.
THAT here’s one happy coach Premier Reserves Chris Halas following his sides convincing 37-10 win over the Taradale Reserves at Tremain Field on Saturday.

The Leprauchan Comments
O’Malley’s wolfhound died and O’Malley was despondent. He decided to ask the local priest for a favour.
“Father,” O’Malley said, “is there any way you could say a mass for my poor dead wolfhound? He was a lovely animal, he was, and I’d like his soul to be at peace.”
“I’m afraid not,” replied the priest. “We can’t be sayin‘ mass for animals now. The church forbids it. But you might ask the Protestants. There’s no tellin‘ what those heathens will do.”
“Okay thanks, Father, “said O’Malley. “By the way, do you think 5,000 Euros would be enough to offer them for the service?”
“My God, O’Malley!” exclaimed the priest. “Why in heaven’s name didn’t you say the dog was a Catholic?!”
The Irish way…
Now don’t be talking about yourself while you’re here.
We’ll surely be doing that after you leave.
Mick promised his wife he’d have 2 drinks and be home by 8. He always gets those two numbers mixed up.
We look forward to seeing all rugby players, footballers, netballers, cricketers and softballers and friends at the clubrooms each Saturday – Pop in for cool Tui or two – Also bring along your mates for an Ale and a chat. All members and friends Welcome …………. Ed
