The extended 24 man train-on squad has been selected after trials conducted in Port Vila over the past 6 months and players currently playing in overseas competitions such as the NRL and QLD Cup in Australia and New Zealand. Amongst the notable inclusions are current NRL stars Justin O’Neill (Melbourne Storm) and Alehana Mara (NZ Warriors). Also in the squad is veteran QLD Cup player James Wood (Tweed Heads Seagulls) who hails from Malo and up-and-coming stars Joe and Jake Meninga, nephews of the famous Mal Meninga, with their ancestry from Tanna. Local players in the squad include Kunro Kalo (Ovins), Patrick August (Vate Bulldogs), Jason Pakoasongi (Aelan Warriors), Kalpart Steedman (Police) and Nelson Law (Tatoko). Dane Campbell will assume the head coach role and will be assisted by former well known NRL players Rhys Wesser and Ken Nagas. Although only established in September 2011, the VRL has taken significant steps forwards in the development of the game in the capital Port Vila and the game against Greece will be used to further gain public support and raise awareness of rugby league throughout the whole nation. Discussions are ongoing in regards to the venue for the game, with an announcement to be made over the coming week. The full squad can be found on next page of this document. Any questions relating to this document should be forwarded to [email protected] or contact Dane Campbell on + 61 410 575 164 or Tom Carlo + 678 554 1002.

A Former Townsville Bulletin Sports Editor Who Played a Key Role in The
A former Townsville Bulletin sports editor who played a key role in the establishment of the North Queensland Cowboys has called for major changes at board level to get the struggling club back on track. Doug Kingston, who floated the idea that North Queensland should have a Winfield Cup (now NRL) team in a story in the Townsville Bulletin back in 1989, called and chaired the first meeting, and worked on a voluntary basis to help get the team into the national competition, believes the current Cowboys board appears to have lost sight of the core reason the club was established. "Unless major changes are made in the composition of the Cowboys board the club faces a bleak future," Kingston said. "The secrecy surrounding the board of directors gives rise to suspicion that it is a closed shop, which has lost sight of the core reason the club was established. "During the past few weeks I have tried, unsuccessfully, to find out just who is on the NQ Cowboys board. My quest to identify the current board members included numerous Google searches and an email to NQ Cowboys chairman, Lewis Ramsay, requesting details of board members and the procedure for appointment of board members. I also asked Mr Ramsay if any of the current board members were elected by a vote of club members. "Mr Ramsay replied that these matters were ‘confidential’. Kingston then wrote back to Mr Ramsay saying: "In the absence of your advice to the contrary, I will assume that the Cowboys Leagues Club currently owns the North Queensland Cowboys football club/team, having acquired it in 2015 from News Limited.

Fidel In the world that depends on technology, it is hard to miss breaking news on an 8.9 Magnitude Earthquake that kills 19 people or the news about a massacre of five people in the middle of Europe. Surprisingly enough, if I asked you about one of the greatest mass killings in the world after WWII, I wouldn’t be surprised if you said the war in Iraq, Afghanistan or Pakistan. The death toll in these three countries combined is recorded to be approximately 371,000 people since 2001according to Watson Institute – Cost of War. This is not close to half the great genocide of Rwanda that claimed almost a million lives. The Democratic Republic of Congo is well known for its richness in natural resources and minerals such as gold, diamond, coltan, petroleum to name a few.

Kick Impact Characteristics for Different Rugby League Kicks
KICK IMPACT CHARACTERISTICS FOR DIFFERENT RUGBY LEAGUE KICKS Kevin Ball School of Sport and Exercise Science, Victoria University, Melbourne, Australia Kicking is becoming increasingly important in rugby league and one of the most important aspects of kicking is the nature of impact. This study examined impact characteristics for five rugby league kicks – the goalshot, the punt kick, the dropkick, the grubber and the ‘bomb’. Seven elite players performed these kicks while being videoed (6000Hz). Digitised data of nine points (five on the kick leg, four on the ball) were used to quantify parameters near and during impact. Rugby league kicks produced a smaller time in contact and a larger amount of work compared to kicks in other sports. Differences also existed between the five types of rugby league kick tested in terms of ball to foot ratio and foot and ball positioning at impact. These differences between kicks within the same sport highlight the need to evaluate different kick types separately within a sport. KEYWORDS: Ball to foot, Drop kick, Goalshot, INTRODUCTION: Kicking has become increasingly important in rugby league. Where once the kick was used to get out of defense and attacking kicks were predominantly ‘bombs’ (a high trajectory into the attacking scoring zone that gave attacking players time to get under it) recent years has seen the emergence of more precise kicks to wide receivers across the ground. The kicking game of National Rugby League team the Melbourne Storm is considered to be a key reason for their success in gaining four grand finals in a row and in 2007, more than a third of their tries were scored from kicks (Ball, 2007).
