  • Here We Come 14
    “For anyone who is interested in looking beyond the names, the dates, the half-truths and the mythologies and entering the realm of rugby’s place in our history, this is a must read.” — Chris Laidlaw Rugby is New Zealand’s national sport. From the grand tour by the 1888 Natives to the upcoming 2015 World Cup, from games in the North African desert in World War II to matches behind barbed wire during the 1981 Springbok tour, from grassroots club rugby to heaving crowds outside Eden Park, Lancaster Park, Athletic Park or Carisbrook, New Zealanders have made rugby their game. In this book, historian and former journalist Ron Palenski tells the full story of rugby in New Zealand for the first time. It is a story of how the game travelled from England and settled in the colony, how Ma¯ori and later Pacific players made rugby their own, how battles over amateurism and apartheid threatened the sport, how national teams, provinces and local clubs shaped it. But above all it is a story of wing forwards and fullbacks, of Don Clarke and Jonah Lomu, of the Log of Wood and Charlie Saxton’s ABC, of supporters in the grandstand and crackling radios at 2 a.m. Ron Palenski is an author and historian and among the most recognised authorities on the history of sport, and especially rugby, in New Zealand. He has written numerous books, among them an academic study, The Making of New Zealanders, that placed rugby firmly as a marker in national identity. Contents Acknowledgements 9.

  • From Chronology to Confessional: New Zealand Sporting Biographies in Transition
    From Chronology to Confessional: New Zealand Sporting Biographies in Transition GEOFF WATSON Abstract Formerly rather uniform in pattern, sporting biographies have evolved significantly since the 1970s, becoming much more open in their criticism of teammates and administrators as well as being more revealing of their subject’s private lives. This article identifies three transitional phases in the genre; a chronological era, extending from the early twentieth century until the 1960s; an indirectly confessional phase between the 1970s and mid 1980s and an openly confessional phase from the mid-1980s. Despite these changes, sporting biographies continue to reinforce the dominant narratives around sport in New Zealand. New Zealand sporting biographies have a mixed reputation in literary and scholarly circles. Often denigrated for their allegedly formulaic style, they have also been criticised for their lack of insight into New Zealand society.1 Representative of this critique is Lloyd Jones, who wrote in 1999, “sport hardly earns a mention in our wider literature, and … the rest of society is rarely, if ever, admitted to our sports literature.”2 This article examines this perspective, arguing that sporting biographies afford a valuable insight into New Zealand’s changing self- image and values. Moreover, it will be argued that the nature of sporting biographies themselves has changed significantly since the 1980s and that they have become much more open in their discussion of teammates and the personal lives of their subjects. Whatever one’s perspective on the literary merits of sporting biographies, their popular appeal is undeniable. Whereas the print run of most scholarly texts in New Zealand is at best a few thousand, sporting biographies consistently sell in the tens of thousands.

  • The All Blacks Guide to Being Successful (Off the Field)
    INTEGRITY COURAGE HUMILITY INDUSTRY PRIDE RESPECT The All Blacks guide to being successful (off the field) The tricks and tactics of the New Zealand rugby team can lead to success whatever your chosen career, writes James Kerr Source: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/men/active/10427619/The-All-Blacks-guide-to- being-successful-off-the-field.html By James Kerr 12:30PM GMT 14 Nov 2013 New Zealand's win-rate over the last 100 years is over 75 per cent. When England face the All Blacks on Saturday, they will line up against statistically the most successful sporting team in human history. New Zealand's win-rate over the last 100 years is over 75 per cent. It's a phenomenal record, and an achievement matched by no other elite team, in any code. But back in 2004, something was wrong. The 2003 World Cup had gone badly, and by the start of the following year senior All Blacks were threatening to leave. Discipline was drunk and disorderly, and to make things worse, the All Blacks were losing. In response, a new management team under Graham Henry began to rebuild the world's most successful sporting team from the inside out. They wanted a fresh culture that placed emphasis on individual character and personal leadership. Their mantra? 'Better People Make Better All Blacks'. The result? An incredible win-rate of just over 86pc, and a Rugby World Cup. In early 2010, I had the privilege of going deep inside the All Blacks camp for five weeks alongside photojournalist Nick Danziger.

  • RWC 2011 the INFRASTRUCTURE REQUIRED Rob Fisher
    RWC 2011 THE INFRASTRUCTURE REQUIRED Rob Fisher INTRODUCTION What is the infrastructure required for RWC 2011? The short answer is Eden Park. When the IRB and Rugby World Cup officials toured New Zealand in mid 2005, they were happy with the infrastructure which they saw for hosting RWC 2011 with one exception, the exception was Eden Park. Over the past few years there has been the significant upgrading of Jade Stadium, and new stadia developed such as Westpac Trust Stadium in Wellington and Waikato Stadium at Hamilton. However, the officials considered the existing capacity of Eden park at 47000 was too small and the capacity had to be lifted. However the short answer is not the full answer by any means. conservative budget, a mature and safe Winning the Bid tourism infrastructure and, crucially, an unmatched level of commitment and support But lets go back to November 2005. from the New Zealand Government.

  • “Le Bleu Et Le Noir”: New Zealand Perspectives on French Rugby 153
    “Le Bleu et le Noir”: New Zealand Perspectives on French Rugby 153 “Le Bleu et le Noir”: New Zealand Perspectives on French Rugby Geoffrey Watson New Zealand’s connections to France, via its national game, Rugby Union, extend over 100 years.1 To the extent to which New Zealanders read about France at all, much of it comes from sports reporting in the media, tour books and player biographies. Aspects of the sporting relationship between New Zealand and France have been commented on in a number of accounts, but there are few detailed surveys. New Zealand and the French: Two Centuries of Contact, first published in 1990, did not include a chapter on sport among its nineteen chapters, although editor John Dunmore made some allusions to rugby in his chapter on “French influences in New Zealand life.”2 This brief survey of New Zealand’s rugby encounters with France commences with a historical summary of four key periods: early contacts (1906-53); the era of mutual discovery (1961-68); the era of near parity (1973-1986); and France as nemesis and source of redemption (1987 to the present). It then considers New Zealand perceptions of French rugby and the way the game has promoted social and cultural ties between the two nations. Viewed purely in statistical terms, New Zealand’s rugby relationship with France may appear one-sided. Since the All Blacks first played France on New Year’s Day in 1906, New Zealand and France have played 54 international matches against each other. New Zealand has won 41 of these games, France 12 with one match drawn.3 These statistics do not, however, reveal the character of matches between the two nations, in particular the ability of French teams to win vital games against the All Blacks, such as Geoff Watson is Senior Lecturer in History at Massey University.
