  • Sir Peter Leitch Club at MT SMART STADIUM, HOME of the MIGHTY VODAFONE WARRIORS
    Sir Peter Leitch Club AT MT SMART STADIUM, HOME OF THE MIGHTY VODAFONE WARRIORS 21st September 2016 Newsletter #140 By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan RIKEY DID the Vodafone Warriors get hammered at the weekend. The constant theme was that we Cneed a player clearout. That is hardly groundbreaking stuff, but what was, was that players were named. Hugh McGahan singled out Manu Vatuvei and Ben Matulino, arguing both had failed to live up their status as two of our highest paid players. The former Kiwi captain said Warriors coach Stephen Kearney could make a mark by showing the pair the door, and proving to the others that poor performances won't be tolerated. “Irrespective of his standing, Manu Vatuvei has got to go,” McGahan told Tony Veitch. “And again, irre- spective of his standing, Ben Matulino has got to go. They have underperformed. If you're going to make an impact I'd say that's probably the two players that you would look at.” Bold stuff, and fair play to the man, he told it like he saw it. Kearney, on the other hand, clearly doesn’t see it the same way, since he named both in the Kiwis train-on squad, and while he acknowledged they had struggled this year, he backed himself to get the best out of them. In fact he went further, he said it was his job. “That's my responsibility as the coach, to get the individuals in a position so they can go out and play their best.

    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.

The days of being blinded by the sunlight flashing off Manu Vatuvei’s gold teeth are Iover. The big fellah is off to Salford in the English Super League, having been granted an early release from the contract he had with us to the end of the 2018 season. It is a strangely empty felling, given I have been cheering for the bloke for a decade. “Manu is a club legend,” managing director Jim Doyle said. “We didn’t make this decision lightly but after years of service we didn’t want to stand in his way.” I can’t say anything this week that I did not say last week, so farewell Warrior No 115, and thanks for the 226 appearances, some of them great, some not, but you will always be “The Beast” to me, even if, having come to know you a little bit, it is the most ill-suited name they could possibly have given you. I will miss your presence, I will miss your smile, I will miss your laughter. I will miss your carries, I will miss your all or noth- ing approach, and I will miss your tries. It is going to be a long time before anyone overhauls that all-time try-scorer record of 152.

    Sir Peter Leitch Club AT MT SMART STADIUM, HOME OF THE MIGHTY VODAFONE WARRIORS 5th September 2018 Newsletter #233 Congratulations to the Vodafone Warriors on making the 2018 NRL Finals Congratulations Simon on playing your 300th game for the Vodafone Warriors we hope you enjoyed the night as we all did. Photos courtesy of www.photosport.nz Bloody, Penrith, Dragons and Broncos...give me a break By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan HIS IS why I am not an NRL tipster. TLast week I boldly opined that to get a home game we would need to beat the Raiders – which happened – and have results go our way – which didn’t. The Storm did not beat the Panthers and blew the Minor Premiership, buggering everything. The Roosters, as predicted, were way too good for the Eels and snatched the Minor Premiership. Souths ended their slump by beating a Tigers side that barely looked interested to finish third. The Sharks at least made me look semi-competent, beating the Dogs to go fourth. The Panthers, as mentioned, pulled off an upset no-one saw coming, and that left them in fifth. The Broncos crushed Manly and rose to sixth, only failing to edge the Panthers – having finished on the same points and differential – because they had more points conceded. The Dragons beat Newcastle yet dropped to seventh. All of which saw us, despite our win over Canberra, at an almost disappointing eighth. Being there is the only thing, and our last finals experience in 2011 took us all the way to the final from the same spot, so why not again? It’s doubtful even if I wish I could say differently, but I cannot see it happening.

Sadly it's rather slender.The scheme was launched in 1988, when experts selected 9 original inductees, the players considered to be the very greatest in the game's history. They were Harold Wagstaff, Jim Sullivan, Albert Rosenfeld, Gus Risman, Jonty Parkin, Alex Murphy, Billy Boston, Brian Bevan and Billy Batten Not much of a Halifax connection there, you might think. But you'd be wrong. One of them actually turned out for us once, and later became first team coach for a couple of seasons. Just which one it was will be revealed lower down. Since 1988 another 19 names have joined these originals. This time there are two Halifax connections, though not as players. Roger Millward, add- ed in the year 2000, was our coach from May 1991 to December 1992, when he was replaced by our other Hall of Fame link, Malcolm Reilly, who joined the roll of honour in 2014 Roger Millward at Thrum Hall, 1992.
