  • 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.

  • A Case of Living with the Consequences Allegations of Racism Within a Professional Rugby Union Franchise
    “TELLING IT AS I SEE IT” - A CASE OF LIVING WITH THE CONSEQUENCES ALLEGATIONS OF RACISM WITHIN A PROFESSIONAL RUGBY UNION FRANCHISE Chantelle Te Haara, Tahirih McLaren-Brown, John Davies Victoria Management School, Victoria University of Wellington PO Box 600, Wellington, New Zealand; email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This case examines allegations of racist selection within a professional rugby union franchise team made by a well known former All Black and sport media personality on a popular TV sporting show. The focal actor’s prominent role as a Rugby World Cup 2011 Ambassador provides a context for a consideration of stakeholder analysis in matters of risk, media and crisis management. It also provides opportunity for consideration of ethical behaviour, and a multi-level exploration of the reaction, and moral and ethical reasoning of a diverse group of political, sporting and other stakeholders. Key words: rugby, racism, Crusaders, stakeholder analysis, ethical behaviour. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Rugby Union and SuperRugby Rugby Union is a global sport played in more than 120 counties at an amateur or professional level. There are two primary versions of the game – played as 15-aside and 7-aside by men and women. The 15s version is played at school, club, provincial and international level – with a Rugby World Cup (RWC) held every four years, with qualifying tournaments played on a continental basis. The game of Rugby Sevens is also played at international level, with an annual World Series of nine two-day competitions contested by national teams playing successively at venues on five different continents.

  • 'Knuckles' Connolly | Former Wallabies Head Coach
    Borneo ANZAC Day Cup Tournament and Bears Sportsman’s night 2013 Special Guests John 'Knuckles' Connolly | Former Wallabies Head Coach John "Knuckles" Connolly is a rugby union coach and the former head coach of the Wallabies. Connolly has in the past worked with the Queensland Reds, Stade Francois, Swansea RFC as well as Bath Rugby. As a rugby player, Connolly played hooker for the Brothers club in Brisbane. From 1980 through to 1982, Connolly acted as a player and a coach for a rugby team in Darwin. His first major coaching position was with the Brothers club in Brisbane in 1983, acting as the reserve grade coach for three years, taking the team to two premierships. Subsequent roles came to him as he was appointed as the Under 19s and Under 21s Queensland rugby union coach. In 1989, Connolly took up a coaching position within the Queensland Rugby team. In 1991, Connolly served as an Australian selector. During his time with Queensland, the side won the Super Six in 1992 and the Super 10 Championship in 1994 and 1995. With the inception of the Super 12 competition in Australia in 1996, Connolly continued his position at the Queensland Reds. The Reds won the minor premiership that year, and Connolly went on to win the Super 12 Coach of the Year award in both 1998 and 1999, the Reds also winning the minor premiership in 1999 as well. He went over to France the following season, where he took up a position at the Stade Francois rugby club. The club won the premiership during the 1999-2000 season and were Heineken Cup finalists that same year as well as the next.

Per la nostra Nazionale segnano l’inizio di una nuova sta- gione, per l’intero movimento costituiscono un momento ed un mezzo di straordinaria promozione del nostro sport e dei valori che lo caratterizzano. Una grande festa di sport, una celebrazione del modo unico di vivere la passione italiana per il rugby. Un percorso in cui Cariparma ci accompagna ormai da dieci anni, condividendo con noi entusia- smi e delusioni, vittorie e sconfitte, ma soprattutto lo spirito del nostro sport: a tutto il Gruppo va un sentito ringraziamento per continuare ad essere il primo partner della Federazione e degli Azzurri. Il calendario internazionale 2016 ci mette subito di fronte agli All Blacks, bi- campioni del mondo in carica, l’unica squadra ad aver sollevato per tre volte nella storia la Webb Ellis Cup, imbattuti – mentre scrivo - da ben diciassette incontri.

  • Professionalization and Competitive Balance in NZ Rugby Union
    ISSN 0111-1760 University of Otago Economics Discussion Papers No. 0214 December 2002 Professionalization of New Zealand Rugby Union: Historical Background, Structural Changes and Competitive Balance* P. Dorian Owen and Clayton R. Weatherston University of Otago New Zealand Treasury Abstract The transformation of rugby union from an amateur to a professional sport since 1995 has led to significant changes in the structure of the game. This paper documents the changes in the organizational structures that have occurred since professionalization, with a particular focus on New Zealand. We provide a brief historical overview of the development of rugby union in New Zealand, including a discussion of the forces that led to professionalization. We outline the changes that have occurred in the labour market and to the organization of competitions, including the new cross-national franchise-based Super 12 and Tri-Nations competitions and their relationship to the more traditional National Provincial Championship (NPC). The roles and objectives of the various national and cross-national organizing bodies are examined. The main focus is on the degree of competitive balance in the different competitions under the current organizational structure and any effects this has had on the overall performance of New Zealand’s national team, the All Blacks. Current issues of relevance to administrators of rugby in New Zealand (such as financial and competitive balance in the NPC and possible reconfiguration of the Super 12 competition) are also discussed.
