1st Club Day of  2013 - This Weekend!

4/18/2013

0 Comments

 
Season 2013 has arrived… all 3 senior teams will be having their third game of the season this weekend with the record for all 3 teams to date being won one lost one. 

Clubday this weekend:

1:15pm:

Div2

POB v Midlands

U19 (pre season game)

POB v Central Southland College

3pm

Senior C

POB v Central Pirates

Premier 

POB v Midlands 

A virtual smorgasbord of rugby to be watched with the alluring temptation of the clubrooms to retire to after the games which will hold the usual attraction of beer, food and raffles. 

Whats New in the Clubrooms???

With the help of Club sponsors Placemakers, Atkinson Plumbing along with resident  tradesmen and design work by Katherine Harvey  POB now claim to have the flashest ladies toilets in Southland.

The draw for team naming sponsors (Div2 & Senior C) will also be held on Saturday night.

Other news:

The U19 season along with schoolboy rugby will kick off Sat 11 May.

Now the season has kicked off keep an eye on the website for updates on what is happening. Also check out the sponsors page, they give the club great support at all levels.

Toyota Grassroots Rugby has kicked off on CUE TV. This program showcases a great variety of clubs and games from around NZ and is great to watch (if you are a bloke).

Heres a small tip:  save up 3 or 4 episodes of Grassroots Rugby, bookend it with something exciting like NASCAR Racing & Premier League Darts and you will achieve world domination of the couch. Great for a wet Sunday afternoon.

Senior C Final Tomorrow!!!!!

Team, 

Last Weekend, Champagne rugby was ordered and champagne rugby was delivered!

The Div 2s carried on their recent form with a 42-29 dorking of Marist! At one stage the Bs went 30-3 up in as many minutes in the first half.

The B’s have had a massive last four games amassing 146 points (23 tries) to 63 (9 tries).  Unreal considering their previous 10 games they

only scored 154 points (24 tries).

The boys season is now over which is a shame because they were running home stronger than Kiwi in the ’83 Melbourne Cup!

---



The Cs “2nd Test” vs Wyndham, proved to be that as Wyndham fronted in the first half but Jo’s boys still managed to shine with a 26-0 win.

This week see the Cs hosting the Southland Wide Presidents Grade final against their old foe Excelsior at Pirates Old Boys.

Kick off at 2:30. Get behind the boys as they seek redemption!

The U18s were unsuccessful in the quarter final to Boys High’ which bring the good first season in the Blue and Black to a close.

Hopefully we will see some boys progress into the Bs and more join the u18s next year.

Also - POB Under 10’s - the clubs only unbeaten team this year are facing their biggest challenge this Saturday at Star 9.30, wander down.

CLUB DAY 30 June 2012 - Div 2 v Collegiate

7/4/2012

0 Comments

 
 A big game for the Div2 boys against a higher ranked team on Saturday. Conditions were excellent although the morning frost was still hanging around at the top of the field.

A good all round effort saw the boys push Collegiate all the way. Unfortunately we didn't take a couple of chances to score and after a big 2nd half which saw POB dominating territory and possession the final score was
17 - 13 Collegiate. 

Some big games are still ahead of us with bus trips to Gore (Pioneer) and

Ohai Nightcaps followed by two games in town against Star and Marist.

Training on Tues night week was interesting with the ground being completely frozen. Makes you appreciate what the schoolboys grades are faced with when they have their early morning games. The Prems had a good win on Sat against Midlands, hope they can do the same against Marist on Sat.
