TALES from the BANGER KITCHEN During the Course of Feeding the Hungry Masses at Wall Street, One Has Encountered Some Pretty Strange Dudes Over the Years ell, what a busy year it is turning out to be. Since W the last Banter, we entered a team in the Pattaya 10’s and nearly took first prize. Unfortunately the youth- ful Southerners took it away. Then came the Phuket 10’s. This year I was part of the touring party and I can vouch for those who said it was a great tour. There are some photos on the ensuing pages which give you an insight into how we won the Plate and how as a bunch of “Convicts” impressed the locals as well as visitors. Next, came the visit of Jonah Lomu and Steve Thomp- son to Bangkok. They put in a lot of time at Pattana on the Saturday coaching the kids and then attended a Charity dinner in the evening. It was a great few days while they were here with lots of photo opportunities. Bangers rugby shirts were given to them which they both immediately wore. The evening also inspired some unusual behaviour and the subject of a new t-shirt. Then the annual Bangers Golf Day. Very well organ- ised.

Mike Andrew Steve Thompson Visits Soi 33 Club Rooms English and British Lion prop Steve Thompson visited Wall Street for a couple of ales while he was in Bangkok for the Lions Rugby Dinner. The Bangers have been very lucky over the years, with a number of rugby personalities visitng the club while in town. They include Eric Rush, Dean Richards, Glen Ella, Bob Skinstad, Richard Loe, John Mitchell, Bob Dwyer and Dilap Kumar. Jonah Lomu A Hit With Kids Jonah was a hit with the young Lions when he conducted a rugby clinic at Pattana School. Aside from passing on rugby skills the genial giant took time to chat with the players and sign autographs. A few Old Bangkok Bangers mem- bers assisted Jonah with training, acting as “tackle bags”. They were happy to wax on about their brush with fame later over a beer. Lions Dinner Went Down Well With Punters All Bangers that attended The Bangkok Lion Rugby Dinner at the Queens Park Hotel enjoyed the evening Jonah Lomu and Steve Thompson were the guest speakers and the evening marshaled by the irrepressible Justin “Sambo” Sampson. Funds raised will be used to support the Bangkok Lions junior rugby development program. Roger To Crank Up Curry Club Roger Fitzgerald recently announced that he is going to crank up the Banger Curry Club. The turnouts at the monthly lunch have dropped off a tad over the last year. Roger, an old hand at organizing curry lunches in Bangkok, believes he can resuscitate the club and increase body count. As he points out “There are just so many good curry houses in Bangkok” World Cup Countdown At The Wall Of Knowledge The buzz on Wall of Knowledge at the moment is the World Cup later this year. This esteemed group of rugby know- it-alls, are hedging their bets but clearly New Zealand, South Africa are in the spotlight as potential winners with Aus- tralia, Ireland and Argentina as rank outsiders. Day Competed Against Bangers in Phuket Boat Race Banger Trevor Day for reasons known only to him, competed against his own team mates in a Boat Race to decide this years winner of the Weasel Cup at the recent Phuket 10’s. The Phuket Viagarabond and Bangers did not meet in the draw, so the teams brain trust concluded a “drink off” would resolve the situation. The Bangers lost by a glass. Banger Golf Day Hailed A Success The Golf Day at the Bangkok Golf Day was again a huge success. The day was hot and humid, however all partici- pants completed the course and quickly retire to an adjoining restaurant for rehydration and the ritual prize giving. Af- ter the rehydration procedure the group returned to the clubrooms for more liquid and supposedly to watch the All Blacks play the Bok’s. Reports are coming in some failed make it through the night. Farewell Party For Three Of Bangers Finest Three Bangers - Paul Bawden, Mark Williams, Dave Burge - are departing the Kingdom, The club and players have organized a farewell party. A big turnout is expected with wives, children and girlfriends etc invited to share in the celebration. See the club notice board for details. A DISTURBING TREND The European rugby season has finally come to a close and once the little matter of the World Cup is out of the way (in the trophy cabinet in Dublin) the late start to the new season will bring some new faces to the Northern Hemisphere. The imminent influx of Kiwis, Aussies and Boks to British, Irish and French clubs is part of an ever growing trend. The Coach of the Bangers is a worried man. Some highly sought after talent from his big squad have been showing signs of restlessness in recent months. He’s worried that some of the players he has nurtured from mediocrity to total ineffectualness have already been approached by the big guns from Europe. I’ve always been trained be on the lookout for conspicuousness, otherwise it's hard to tell if someone is inconspicuous, so I have spotted changes in the behaviour of some players. There was the little case of Chris Hartley (albeit our 4th choice half back) playing against the Bangers in Phuket for his old mates from Manila. Then Andrew Tatam, captain of the Colts, flying half way across Asia to play in Saigon when the Bangers had the toughest games of their entire history just down the road in Pattaya. Even ex-cappie Trevor seemingly trying to do a Hansie Cronje and throw the final against the Doha Dogs in Phuket by dropping a sure try when even Stevie Wonder could have scored. If that wasn’t enough he then proceeded to drink for the Viagrabonds against us in the boat race for the Weasel Cup. There have been farewell kisses (well that’s how it looked Trevor and Andy), mysterious job re-assignments and seminars in Europe, refusals to drink after training, visiting ex-internationals masquerading as ‘guest speakers and one player was even so blatantly obvious as to ask if the dressing rooms in Ireland have central heating. To all the would be defectors, traitors and agents provocateurs I would say only two things. First look deep into your Banger soul and ask yourself if playing club rugby in Europe is what you really want. Second, can I have a cut of the transfer fee………… the Bangers haven’t paid me a bean since I got here. WHAT A START What a start been to my Club Captaincy, just before I accepted the honour, we completely destroyed the form book and got to the final of the main competition of the Pattaya 10’s beating the Thai National Team on the way and losing narrowly to Wagga and his Southerners in the final.

In South Africa, the tour was expected to reopen the doors to international competition for the Springboks after an anti-apartheid sporting boycott had forced the sport into relative isolation during the 1970s. In the face of much international condemnation, the Springboks toured to New Zealand and the USA in 1981 where they encountered large and often violent demonstrations as those who opposed the tour attempted to scuttle it.

    UNITED NATIONS UNITED NATIONS CENTRE AGAINST APARTHEID l t C4- 9Cr 7/88 April 1988 REGISTER OF SPORTS CONTACTS WITH SOUTH AFRICA 1 JANUARY 1987 - 31 DECEMBER 1987 AND CONSOLIDATED LIST OF SPORTSMEN AND SPORTSWOMEN WHO HAVE PARTICIPATED IN SPORTS EVENTS IN SOUTH AFRICA 1 SEPTEMBER 1980 - 31 DECEMBER 1987 [Note: The names of persons in this list are arranged by nationality as reported in the press. The names of participants from schools and junior competitors are not included in the list. It should be noted, however, that the Governments of many countries in the list have opposed or discouraged sports exchanges with South Africa. Some of the sportspersons may be living outside their countries.] United Nations, New York 10017 INTRODUCTION The international campaign against apartheid sport continued to make progress during 1987. In response, South Africa has embarked on a massive exercise to lure well-known athletes from overseas to compete there by offering them substantial sums of money. Although many countries tightened their regulations in regard to these exchanges in 1987, South Africa continued its efforts to mitigate the effects of the boycott. It is estimated that South Africa spends approximately $US 100 million annually to promote international sports exchanges and subsidize sports organizations which endorse government policies. Commercial'houses which sponsor any event involving overseas participants are refunded 90 per cent of their gross outlay through tax rebates. Thus, South Africa devotes large sums of money to attract overseas players. With the exception of some top golfers and tennis players and a few others, the calibre of players participating in South Africa has been mediocre.
