BB's History...

The Broken Breakers started in 2000 when we realised that whilst some of us had stayed involved with the Breakers through various roles, other ex-players felt they did not know any of the current players.

Therefore, they did not feel part of the club anymore.

The 100 club (although we never got to 100 members) was up and running, so it was easy to convert this to Broken Breakers.

 

The whole idea was, that having joined the BB’S and when wearing our Broken Breakers Gear, that the current players would recognise that whilst some of us looked like we could not make it across the field and back, we were just like them once, and had played and bled on the same paddock as they were currently doing.

 

It was then opened-up to those who had not played for Newport but were like us, ex-Rugby players and supporters & lovers of the game they play in heaven.

 

The BB’S has grown over the years with 85 members being our biggest year.

We have become a vital link between past and present players and the club benefits from our subs, which are mostly paid before the season kicks off and therefore provide much needed funds to operate, before the BBQ/bar taking’s kick in.

 

It’s great to see on Game day all the BB’s kitted out as one in front of the BBQ area. I know the current players enjoy scoring in that corner as well as singing the club song in front of us. It is a great community to be a part of and you never know who you might bump into on a winter afternoon at Breaker Stadium.

Most of us get better with age & the older we get the better we were.

 

We are the envy of other clubs who would like to have the support & strong connection to their ex-players that we do.

Why the Hell you played the game...

Northy found us this AWESOME POEM...

​

When the battle scars have faded
And the truth becomes a lie
And the weekend smell of liniment
Could almost make you cry.

​

When the last rucks well behind you
And the man that ran now walks
It doesn’t matter who you are
The mirror sometimes talks

​

Have a good hard look old son!
The melons not that great
The snoz that takes a sharp turn sideways Used to be dead straight

​

You’re an advert for arthritis
You’re a thoroughbred gone lame
Then you ask yourself the question
Why the hell you played the game?

​

Was there logic in the head knocks?
In the corks and in the cuts?
Did common sense get pushed aside?
By manliness and guts?

​

Do you sometimes sit and wonder
Why your time would often pass
In a tangled mess of bodies
With your head up someone’s......?

​

With a thumb hooked up your nostril
Scratching gently on your brain
And an overgrown Neanderthal
Rejoicing in your pain!

​

Mate – you must recall the jersey
That was shredded into rags
Then the soothing sting of Dettol
On a back engraved with tags!

​

It’s almost worth admitting
Though with some degree of shame
That your wife was right in asking
Why the hell you played the game?

​

Why you’d always rock home legless
Like a cow on roller skates
After drinking at the clubhouse
With your low down drunken mates

​

Then you’d wake up – check your wallet Not a solitary coin

Drink Berocca by the bucket Throw an ice pack on your groin

​

Copping Sunday morning sermons
About boozers being losers
While you limped like Quasimodo
With a half a thousand bruises!

​

Yes – an urge to hug the porcelain
And curse Sambuca’s name

Would always pose the question
Why the hell you played the game!

​

And yet with every wound re-opened
As you grimly reminisce it
Comes the most compelling feeling yet
God, you bloody miss it!

​

From the first time that you laced a boot And tightened every stud 
That virus known as rugby Has been living in your blood

​

When you dreamt it when you played it
All the rest took second fiddle
Now you’re standing on the sideline
But your hearts still in the middle

​

And no matter where you travel
You can take it as expected
There will always be a breed of people Hopelessly infected

​

If there’s a teammate, then you’ll find him Like a gravitating force 
With a common understanding And a beer or three, of course

​

And as you stand there telling lies
Like it was yesterday old friend
You’ll know that if you had the chance You’d do it all again

​

You see – that’s the thing with rugby
It will always be the same
And that, I guarantee
Is why the hell you played the game!
 

Sorry - coudn't find the author - let us know if you can.

​

Happy Days!

Historic BBs' Tales...

FIRST NEWPORT TRY...
Peter Berry (BB - below left) convinced me at NSLC that he had scored the first ever try for the Newport Breakers. And Geoff Hookam (BB - below right) reckons he passed him the ball. Ask them about it.
Peter was shipwrecked on the Galapagos in 1977.
It's an amazing story of survival and if you like a good read...
  We have Peter's story here   
It gives new meaning to the term "Sea gulling".
