  • At 10-Year Get-Together Berro Recalls His Goals
    BRONCOS OLD BOYS LUNCHEON 2016 At 10-year get-together Berro recalls his goals 1 ALTHOUGH ONLY SEVEN members of the 2006 NRL grand final winning team 2 could attend, the annual Broncos Old Boys luncheon to celebrate the milestone was widely acclaimed as one of the best. Almost 300 former players (BOBs) and members of the wider Broncos family attended the luncheon at the Broncos Leagues Club during the June bye weekend. And Justin Hodges, David Stagg, Shane Perry, Shaun Berrigan, Petero Civoniceva, Ben Hannant and Casey McGuire were the 3 premiership winners from a decade ago who were able share to the unforgettable 4 moment with their fellow guests. But for Berrigan, who joined the club from school and made 186 NRL appearances for the club, winning on grand final day had been a long-held aspiration. “As a kid still in school, I recall sitting in Cyril Connell’s office upstairs here and writing down my goals,” he revealed to an attentive audience. “One was to win a grand final and the other was to win the Clive Churchill Medal as best on ground. Luckily that day I was able to do both.” Berrigan, who was also a member of the 5 2000 premiership team, was joined on stage by teammates Petero Civoniceva, Justin Hodges and Ben Hannant and interviewed by MC Ben Ikin, also a Broncos premiership winner form 2000. Another dual premiership winner, Lote Tuqiri, was another special guest interviewed. 6 A number of guests travelled long distance to attend the function, but none 1.

    TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson DATE: 11 May 2009 RE: Media Summary Tuesday 05 April to Monday 11 May 2009 Kearney wants to stay on: DESPITE Friday's loss to the Kangaroos, Kiwis coach Stephen Kearney has given the first hints he wants to carry on in the role beyond this year. The 36-year-old, who guided the Kiwis to World Cup glory against all odds last year, comes off contract after the Four Nations, which ends mid-November. Anzac test defeats seen as brand damage to Kiwis: NEW ZEALAND officials are concerned that the Kiwi brand is becoming damaged by one-sided Anzac test defeats, and a former NZRL chairman has called for the mid-year game to be scrapped. Senior Kiwi and Australian officials will meet in the next month to discuss plans for the year-end Four Nations tournament, but New Zealand will also want debate over the future of this game. There is no long-term contract for the match, which is agreed to on an annual basis. It was classic Benji – good and bad: After engineering – almost single-handedly – a win for the Tigers over the Knights on a recent sunny Sunday afternoon, Benji Marshall was described by astute league analyst Phil Gould as “an enigma; a mystery wrapped up in a riddle”. That same enigma was back last night at Suncorp Stadium and, perhaps more importantly, he had the extra responsibility of captaining his world champion Kiwis against a fired up Aussie side hell-bent on revenge.
