  • Weekly Update – 24 October 2009

    Weekly Update – 24 October 2009

    Parnell Cricket Club Incorporated - Established 1858 Update No.174 – Black Caps Pipped Again Unbelievable – Deja Vue – Black Caps Pipped Again! Call it what you will, the Tie at Eden Park on Sunday, in the series deciding 5th T20, was the most extraordinary coincidence. Again, NZ lost fewer wickets to England, the winner of the “super over”. But who makes the rules by which these games are played? Consider these logics: CRICKET IS A GAME BETWEEN TWO TEAMS – OBJECT TO SCORE MORE RUNS/TAKE MORE WICKETS THAN THE OTHER TEAM • Why then not award the game, when tied, to the Team that loses the fewer wickets – on this basis NZ would have won the ICC CWC (lost only 8 wickets to England’s 10) and yesterday’s T20 (T11) – NZ lost 5, England 7 wickets. • But why, in the ICC CWC, was England able to contest the “super over” – it had lost all 10 wickets. Should have been end of story! • Or, if a “super over” has to be bowled, then wouldn’t it be more logical for the batsmen to be those who were not out or still to bat? Once out means OUT? And bowl only a bowler who hadn’t used his T20 quota. In the interest of fairness and logic! Having got that angst off my chest, what a remarkable game yesterday! Talk of coincidences – and quite extraordinary that the game even took place. We had waited all day Saturday for the forecast rain which, most thankfully, held off. And Sunday morning was fine – when the rain did come, around 11am, it came! The whole of Auckland was blanketed – not too heavy but steady and the wind had dropped.

    Annual Report 2018

    Annual Report 2018 th 138 Annual Report of the Otago Rugby Football Union 1 | P a g e Otago Rugby Football Union Inc. th Notice is hereby given that the 138 Annual General Meeting of the Otago Rugby Football Union Incorporated will be held at Taieri Rugby Football Club, Peter Johnstone Park, Reid Avenue, Mosgiel on Wednesday 27th March 2019, beginning at 7.00pm. Richard Kinley General Manager 2 | P a g e President’s Report This is my third year as President of the ORFU and from an overall perspective of Otago Rugby, this year would clearly be the most satisfying. While there remain a number of challenges in our game right across the board both at provincial and at a national level, there are many positive aspects which we should all enjoy and continue to celebrate. Of the 33 clubs in the province, I managed to visit 28 of them and every one was an absolute pleasure. In addition, the many secondary school games, weight grade fixtures, tournaments, representative fixtures, meetings, prizegivings, sponsors functions and a host of other events, has made this season a most enjoyable experience. One aspect that I would like to comment on is the secondary school rugby scene. Richard Kinley and I took the opportunity to meet with the Chairman of the Canterbury Secondary Schools Rugby Council during a visit to Christchurch. While I will not go into the details of the meeting, it became very evident that the current systems we have in place for administering and managing the game at this level in Otago are very sound.

    1/6/15 Otago Southland Regional Land Tranport Plans

    Otago Southland Regional Land Transport Plans 2015-2021 Chairmen’s Foreword The Otago and Southland Regional Transport Committees are pleased to present these 2015–2021 Otago Southland Regional Land Transport Plans. These plans set our vision of transport in the future, and how we - the 10 local authorities in our two regions and the NZ Transport Agency - intend to achieve this by funding and providing transport services and infrastructure. The prosperity of both Otago and Southland - our quality of life - depends heavily on good land transport infrastructure and services. Our primary industries drive much of the area’s economic growth, so good access and freight services linking farms and forests, suppliers, processors and export gateways are critical. Tourism, another major economic driver in Otago and Southland, also depends on quality road links. Covering almost half of the South Island, the Otago and Southland regions face common transport challenges. These include a very large land area and road network but comparatively low rating population in many areas, natural hazards impacting on the roads, and infrastructure upgrades needed to give longer, heavier freight trucks access to key parts of the transport network. Our two regions also have many common road safety issues. It is these shared issues and opportunities that have led us to jointly develop our Regional Land Transport Plans. Our Regional Transport Committees have developed a common transport strategy for the two regions. This strategy focuses on maintaining our established transport networks, while making key improvements to transport services and infrastructure, focusing on: reducing the social cost of crashes; supporting economic productivity and growth by enabling freight journeys and visitor journeys; increasing network resilience; enabling all modes of transport appropriate access to the network; and ensuring value for money investments.
