It has affected everybody including those in the water free zone. There are some tragic stories with people losing all their worldly possessions. One thing you can say about the Thai people, they are resilient and still manage to smile in the face of adversity. That one the joys you notice living here. The flood brought an abrupt halt to the Thai Rugby Union competition Understandable. The Colts were doing well tucking in a couple of wins under the belt. The Colts will just have to go out and do the same next year The Bangers have continued training despite the floods. Lumpini Park has been the venue most Sundays however, Patana International School could be open again shortly. EDITORIAL The Rugby World Cup lived up to its hype.

October - December 2011 5 “You Will Always be A Banger” - t seems a long time since the last Banter, maybe that is not helped much by Michael having to wait for my contribution. It seems a while since we have played any games but then I was away in New Zealand at the Rugby World Cup and on my way back the night we played The Bald Eagles. From all accounts, there was a lot of fun and enjoyment on and off the pitch. Before I go any further, I would like to express my sympathy to all who are negatively affected by the floods. Among our membership, some of the luckier among us may be unaffected, but our thoughts have to go out to those whose homes are badly damaged and even perhaps uninhabitable. If you hear of anyone in need please pass it on to the committee to see if there is some way we can help. The Thai Rugby Union season was short this year as we already know and was cancelled in the end due to the disastrous flooding that is affecting thousands in Thailand. We did play two games, which we won convincingly. The games were played in the right spirit and were tough games but clean. It is important that we play our games with a measured effort and with an emphasis of being known as good sports. Bob Pearson tells us we can expect to get our Polo shirts soon so look out for him to claim yours. We have ordered new shorts, and we are in process to place an order for a new Ancients kit. Unfortunately, we have had to pull out of the Chiang Mai Tens, as we could not get a full team together even when we looked at putting a joint team with the Pattaya Panthers. As mentioned above a number of our members and players are affected by the floods. We have a number of family oriented occasions coming up, the first being the weekend in Khao Yai, then in December we will have the Family Carol night. We are looking at arranging a Sponsor Thank You evening, and the Banger Christmas Party will be held as usual in December – which is not far away. Please make an effort to bring the family and to join the other events. Please do not forget to support our sponsors and their products whenever you have a chance, they are extremely important to us and we could not do all the things we organise without their generous support. Please make the effort – let’s make sure all we meet know we are about “Fun, Fraternity, and Friendship”. Lastly, to all members, stay safe and take care. Yours in Banger Rugby Andrew www.oldbangkokbangers.com 6 Banger Banter.

  • Herdenking WO I – David Gallaher Kapitein “All Blacks”
    Herdenking WO I – David Gallaher kapitein “All Blacks” Op zaterdag 3 oktober 2015 wordt er op het grondgebied van het Memorial Museum Passchendaele 1917, een rugbywedstrijd gespeeld tussen New Zealand Army en de Belgische nationale mannenploeg, de Zwarte Duivels. Deze wedstrijd wordt georganiseerd als herdenking aan de toenmalige kapitein van de All-Blacks, David Gallaher, die in de Eerste Wereldoorlog in Passendaele sneuvelde. De organisatie is een samenwerking tussen de Nieuw-Zeelandse ambassade, de Vlaamse Rugbybond, de Belgische Rugbybond en het Memorial Museum Passchendaele 1917 Voorgeschiedenis In 1905 deden de “All Blacks”, die tot dan nog de “Originals” werden genoemd, hun veelbesproken tour in Europa, met als kapitein David Gallaher. De Nieuw-Zeelanders waren zo goed dat een reporter schreef: “they played as all backs”. Maar door een spellingfout stond er boven het artikel “they played as All Blacks”. Een mythe was geboren. De “All Blacks” wonnen al hun Europese wedstrijden, met uitzondering van één wedstrijd tegen Wales. Nieuw-Zeeland in Passendale Midden september 1917 werd het Australian en New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) naar Vlaanderen gehaald voor de verovering van Passendale. Op 4 oktober zorgden de Nieuw- Zeelanders voor een doorbraak op ’s Graventafel, terwijl de Australiërs het huidige Tyne Cot Cemetery innamen. Op 9 oktober probeerden Britse troepen tevergeefs verder vooruit te komen, opnieuw gevolgd door het ANZAC op 12 oktober. In deze bloedige gevechten verloren de Kiwi’s in minder dan vier uur tijd 2700 soldaten, wat een enorm hoge tol was voor het nog jonge Nieuw- Zeeland. Ter nagedachtenis van de ANZAC- troepen die hier in september en oktober 1917 een bloedige strijd geleverd hebben, wordt er van 2 tot 4 oktober 2015, een speciaal ANZAC weekend, georganiseerd.

  • 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.

  • Memorial Unveiled to ‘Original’ All Black in Donegal
    Memorial unveiled to ‘Original’ All Black in Donegal Sir Jerry Mateparae and IRFU President Philip Orr recently unveiled Ramelton’s memorial to Dave Gallaher, Captain of the ‘Original’ All Blacks, to mark the 100th anniversary of the legendary player’s death at the Battle of Passchendaele in 1917. Born in Ramelton, Dave Gallaher’s family emigrated to the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand in 1878 as part of the Vesey-Stewart Special Settlement Scheme. Dave was five years old. They settled in Katikati, on the North Island where David’s mother Maria, became the local schoolteacher. Maria died in 1887 at the tragically young age of 42, leaving 11 children without a mother. Two years later, the 17-year old Dave Gallaher moved to Auckland and played rugby – first for the Parnell Club and then the Ponsonby Club from 1896. In that year he also debuted at provincial level. His rugby career was interrupted when in 1901, he joined the New Zealand Contingent of Mounted Rifles to fight in the Boer War. Gallaher is revered as the captain of the 1905/06 New Zealand touring team (the first to be known as the All Blacks) that won 34 out of 35 matches during that tour, setting a high standard for all future All Blacks teams to follow. During the First World War, 43 year old Gallaher enlisted in the 2nd Battalion, Auckland Regiment within the New Zealand Division to fight in Europe. At the Battle of Passchendaele he was shot in the face during the attack on Gravenstafel Spur, Belgium on 4 October 1917 and died later that day.

  • “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.
