Forward Momentum
Forward momentum JIM TUCKER finds out what Taranaki rugby is doing to make more history: “It was the BBC - Brown, Briscoe and Carroll.” So began the front page story in the Taranaki Herald Sports Edition one Saturday in 1959. It was one of an endless string of puns the paper’s rugby writer used to chronicle extraordinary feats by Taranaki’s late-50s Ranfurly Shield holders. The monikers so playfully employed above – it could easily have been Burke, Boon and Cameron - are a distant memory for most of today’s generation. But they’re far from forgotten at Taranaki Football Rugby Union HQ in Yarrow Stadium. As the photograph of TRFU chief executive Mike Collins shows, that great team dominates one whole wall of the meeting room, and as the union gears up to repeat last year’s win in the ITM inter-provincial rugby competition, the names of Peter Burke, Ross Brown, Kevin Briscoe, Ralph Carroll and company resonate as never before. One reason is the current team already rivals the ‘59ers on at least one measure – the number of All Blacks in its ranks While Taranaki had six at various stages between 1957 and 1960, today’s team has five, with more in the offing. It also has eight Maori All Blacks, (including captain Charlie Ngatai, also an All Black), and two in the Junior All Blacks. Not that any of this is particularly at the forefront He says the academy managers, Willy Rickards of Mike Collins’ mind as he and his team prepare and Adam Haye, spotted Vaeno during some high for the ITM Cup season, which began with a school first fifteen games. -
Men's National Championship Records
MEN'S NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP RECORDS 1939 — 2013 THIRD EDITION — 2013 INTRODUCTION The following pages contain, as far as I can ascertain, the winners and runners-up of all Men's and Boys' New Zealand domestic competitions since the inception of our sport up until the completion of the most recent season. At this time I have not been able to document all runners-up prior to 1958, but hopefully some of that information will become available in due course. Remember, too, that between 1945 and 1949 the Beatty Cup was decided on a challenge basis. Earlier listings of the various championship winners have generally been assembled under a trophy banner, ie winners of the Beatty Cup or the Bensel Cup. While that method served the purpose admirably at the time, changes — notably sponsorship and different tournament formats — make that approach, in my opinion, more cumbersome. Many trophies were re-allocated and sometimes superceded, and on occasions reappeared in a different role, which sometimes made it difficult to follow just what competition/format they were being awarded to. I have therefore opted to list competitions continuously from the beginning until, in some cases, they were eventually discontinued altogether and note, as best I can, the various stages trophies were awarded or discarded. With most age-group categories I have added explanatory notes, which hopefully make clearer the evolution of the various grades. These days our "official records" largely ignore the days before Under-19, Under-17 and Under-15 grades, but I think it is important to ensure the records are maintained as accurately as possible right from the beginning of those grades which played such a huge part in building our sport in the '60s. -

The Commerce Commission (the Commission) in its Decision 580 dated 2 June 2006 authorised the New Zealand Rugby Union (NZRU) to enter into a salary cap arrangement in accordance with the Collective Employment Agreement (CEA) between the NZRU and the New Zealand Rugby Players Association (NZRPA). 2. Since that decision there have been two developments that the NZRU and the NZRPA believe warrant some salary cap relief for the Provincial Unions involved in the 2007 Air New Zealand Cup competition. Both relate to the impact of the Rugby World Cup in 2007 and suggest the need for salary cap relief in just the 2007 year. The NZRU and NZRPA have now agreed to amend the CEA to provide some salary cap relief in the 2007 year subject to having that variation authorised by the Commerce Commission. 3. This letter therefore, is a request to the Commission to vary the authorisation in the ways set out below. We set out in this letter the recent developments referred to above, details of the variation sought and the NZRU’s submissions in relation to the Commission’s jurisdiction to grant a variation to the current authorisation. 1 NEW ZEALAND RUGBY FOOTBALL UNION INC . 4. -
