2023 Ray White NASH CUP
NAPIER OLD BOYS MARIST Premiers 24 – 24 NAPIER PIRATE Premiers
This was always going to be a tough ask playing our 3rd game in 8 days against a vastly improving Napier Pirates team at Tamatea Park. With sore bodies and caring a few injuries we started well and built pressure however Pirates infringements kept us scoreless but after 7 mins we were finally awarded a penalty try 7 – 0. (And No yellow Card?) Pirates weren’t in the mood to lie down however as we let them back into the game with silly penalties just as we were starting to open them up and apply some pressure. Frustrating and for the rest of the first half it let Pirates stay in the game and score a couple of tries. Halftime 14 – 7 lead to Pirates.
The start of the 2nd half we were much better with tries to Pouvi Fatialofa who had a strong game off the bench and Michael Beech on the wing. Jonty adding a conversion. Back in front 19 -14 and 50 mins gone. From here Pirates kept smelling blood and we continued to allow them back in the game with silly mistakes, handling errors and wrong options at crucial times. Another converted try to Pirates in the 63rd min had them back in front 21 -19. We tried to throw the kitchen sink at them and finally with 3 mins left on the clock Bain Champion scored wide out to put us back in front 24-21. Two mins to play. A few silly errors again to close out the game saw Pirates snatch a penalty in the 84th min for a 24 all draw. Boys were Gutted.

2023 Ray White NASH CUP
NAPIER OLD BOYS MARIST Premiers 22 – 34 TECH Premiers
Under lights and a mid-week game against a Napier Tech team fresh off a bye and only losing 1 game in the past season was always going to be a tough one.
We started slowly and after a lapse on defence outwide saw Tech in for a try 0 -5. However our boys looked dangerous when we had the ball in hand and from a strong lineout drive saw hooker Reilly Hannon go over for a try 5-5. Tech dominated for most of the 1st half as we fell off tackles and let Tech get their off-loading game going. We looked dangerous with ball in hand and Josh McIntyre playing back on the wing had a few good runs down the left hand wing and was eventually rewarded for a great wingers try in the left hand corner. Half time 10 -24.
The second forty saw us start strongly and fullback Paoraian Manuel – Harmen scored a great try. Jonty added the conversion 17 -24. However thats about as close as we got as each time we scored Tech would hit back. We weren’t getting outplayed but just a few mistakes creeping into our game at crucial times when we were building pressure. Bain Champion playing at 2nd five scored a try in the 63rd min but it wasn’t to be our night beaten 22-34.

NAPIER OLD BOYS MARIST PREMIER Reserve 25 – 17 BRIDGE PA Premier Reserve
The Richard Kepka Premier reserves took on a big Bridge Pa team at Tremain Field this week. Bridge Pa started off the stronger team with a converted try after just 3 minutes. We got straight back to business afterwards and Paul Lapa scored under the posts in the 8th minute. We managed to stay down the right end of the paddock and with a dominant scrum Hamiora Miringaorangi crossed the line after 20 minutes. Bridge Pa replied with another converted try soon after and we went into the break down 12-14.
Bridge Pa came out strongly and put 3 points on the board immediately in the second half before a well worked blind side run saw James Mitchell over in the corner. 17 all with 15 minutes to play. Our French import Pierre Salamagnou slotted a penalty to put us in the lead before Cory Wilson went diving over in the corner to seal a close tough win, coming away in the end 25-17. 3 from 3 sees us topping our pool but we know we have more in the tank so an intriguing few weeks awaits.
Tries – Paul Lapa, Hamiroa Miringaorangi, James Mitchell, Cory Wilson. Cons. Kitiona Moleli (1). Pens. Pierre Salamagnou (1)

Maury Cody Cup
NAPIER OLD BOYS MARIST Thirds 25 – 51 Havelock North Thirds
The main game at Tremain field saw the mighty NOBM thirds Play the Villagers on an overcast day. We had our best start for the season with three tries to the villagers one in the opening 17 minutes. Unfortunately we let them get the next four tries before half time resulting in the rugby Director losing his rag and coming off at half time with a sore toe
Coach Morrison gave some words of wisdom to the boys at half time which inspired them to score first in the second half and giving Vavao Brown his first hattrick for the season. Unfortunately Havelock went through another patch of four tries in a row. We ended up scoring the last try to give us five for the game but unfortunately the five different kickers couldn’t convert any of them.
The forwards did well in the set pieces and the backs showed some flair and we look forward to seeing more of it as the season progresses.
>>> Thanks to the 2nds and Colts that helped the team out after their games. Awesome club spirit.

NAPIER OLD BOYS MARIST COLTS 28 – 51 TECH COLTS
Game started off with a few errors putting ourselves under pressure and allowing some big Tech ball runners to get over the advantage line easily to them out to a quick 21-0 lead.
Halftime came and after a few short words the team came out and actually put our practiced gameplan into effect. This saw us cross the line for 4 second half tries unfortunately the damage in the first half was too much to overcome.

It is also only the seventh drawn match that the NOBM Premier team have ever played – Hastings R&S (2), Taradale (2), Clive (1), Central HB (1) and now Pirates (1).
THAT We hope you will round up some of your old clubmates and come along to our ‘home’ games at Tremain Field and then spend some time chewing over just what it was like back in your day. Your fellow club members and current our players will appreciated YOUR SUPPORT……. See YOU on Saturday….
THAT at the fundraiser for Breast Cancer Pink Night at the clubrooms last night, organised by Emma Chambers who herself personally raised some $5100 online. Well done Emma. And even our Club Patron Ian MacRae ‘an absolute legend’ also joined in and had his head shaved. Plus the sum from the clubrooms of $2660 helped boost to total raised on the night for this worthy cause. A really great effort for a such an important cause from so many of our generous members and friends who helped really boost this fundraiser which will go toward helping those in need.
THAT Ladies – Did you play for the former Napier Marist Netball Club ? We are going to celebrate what was the starting of the club 50 years ago with a Dinner. Please keep Saturday August 5th 2023 Please pass this message on to anyone who has been involved in the former club.

HERE and THERE ………
Celebrating 28 years of News, Views, Opinion and Stats from the man in the stand . . .
ONE . . . hopes that if the same format that existed for this year’s Nash Cup with a ‘storm week’ prevails next season, that the byes go to clubs who didn’t get that benefit this year.
ALL BLACK . . . lock Josh Lord made his club rugby debut for Districts vs Bush United in Taumarnui on Saturday. Lord returning from injury, is the first All Black to play club rugby in King Country since Phil Coffin in the early 2000’s. If his return is successful Lord will then return to the Chiefs.
FOLLOWING . . . four rounds of the Nash Cup top clubs try wise are:- Tech 25, Taradale 24, NOBM 20, Pirates 18 and Central 15. Top four individual points scorers are:- Jordon Soli (CHB) 46, Sheridan Rangihuna (NTOB) 33 our own Jonty Stewart and Clive’s Tianua Poto on 30. Top try scorer is Taradale No. 8 Iakopa Mapu with 6. Overall, there’s been 160 tries,107 conversions and 27 penalties.
DID . . . you know that former Windies cricketing great Brian Lara has a daughter named Sydney? He named her after the SCG where he scored his first ever test hundred. That was in 1993 against the Aussies. In the Windies first innings score of 606 Lara contributed a mere 277 runs to announce his arrival on the World stage. The rest as they say is history.
PADDY . . . is on the radio doing a live quiz. The presenter says, Paddy for $100 can you tell me, “Who was the first woman on earth?” Paddy goes quiet for a couple of seconds . . . Then he says, “Gimme a clue?” “Go on then” says the DJ, “Think of an apple,” “That’s easy Paddy says, “Granny Smith.”

The Leprauchan Comments
He asks the lawyer, ‘What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?’ The lawyer uses his laptop and searches all references he can find on Google. He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows, all to no avail. After over an hour of searching, he finally gives up. He wakes up the Irishman and hands him €500.00. The Irishman pockets the €500.00 and goes right back to sleep.
The lawyer is going nuts, not knowing the answer. He wakes the Irishman up and asks, ‘Well, so what goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four?’ The Irishman reaches in his pocket, hands the lawyer $5.00 and goes back to sleep.
Don’t mess with the Irish!
“‘Sorry, love, can I have a pint of Guinness and a packet of crisps where you’re ready there’.
‘Oh. You must be Irish’, she replied. The man was evidently offended and responded,
‘The cheek, just because I order a pint of Guinness you assume I’m Irish.
If I ordered a bowl of pasta would you that make me Italian?!’
‘No’ she replied. ‘But this is a newsagents…’”
As he was leaving the pub, after lifting a few pints, Patrick spotted his friend Timothy down on his hands and knees under the streetlight looking for something on the ground. “What is it you lost Timothy?” Patrick asked. “It’s me watch. It fell off when I tripped over the pavement.” So, Patrick joined in the search, but after looking for ages, they hadn’t found any sign of Timothy’s watch. “Where abouts did you fall?” Patrick asked. “It was about a block up the street.” “So why are we looking here Timothy?” Patrick asked, scratching his head. “Sure, the light’s a lot better here.”
