And it was Pacific Islander Day...
A Cold and rainy day reduced our crowd size, but our valiant Pacific Islanders - the Vuata, Osborne and Keresi families - battled on to cook a Hangi - and serve a fine feast on our deck..
Initially, this week was to remember Moape Ravuvu who tragically passed away during a 2nd Grade game at St Ives in 2012. His family has asked for it to be changed from "Mo" Day and reimagined as "Pacific Islander Day".

Sadly, on Aug 16 - the 2021 Season was over...
Date: Mon, Aug 16, 2021
Subject: A Message from the Chairman of the NSW Suburban Rugby Union
To:
The Board of the NSW Suburban Rugby Union (Subbies) has made the difficult decision to cancel the remainder of the competition across all divisions for 2021, effective from today.
The decision has been made in the light of the current COVID-19 restrictions and the lockdowns affecting the Greater Sydney area and follows advice and direction from the NSW State Government and the NSW Rugby Union.
This announcement is made in conjunction with all winter sports in Sydney who have taken the joint decision to end their competitions.
While the preference of Subbies was always to return to play, the Union recognises that with the current uncertainty as to when restrictions may be lifted, it would not be possible, within a suitable time frame, to complete any more rounds or fairly run a conclusive finals series.
The Board also made the decision that no premierships, club championships or individual awards would be presented this year.
This is the first time since 1945 that the Union has been unable to complete a season, but in the current climate it is neither practical, fair or feasible to do so.
The Board recognises and shares the disappointment caused by this decision and would like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsors for their concern and understanding, particularly Four'N Twenty Pies, Cluch TV, Fusesport and the Rugby Club Foundation; and of course we also thank all players, coaches, volunteers and supporters and all of our clubs for their efforts during this fragmented season.
We wish you all the best and look forward to a return to the Subbies rugby competition in 2022.
Regards,
John Morrison
Chairman
NSW Suburban Rugby Union

Blue & White Ball - Presentation Slides
from Jake's PDF - Run on the Big Screen...
Read Top left to Bottom Right
And in February the HAMILTON 7s ...
Angus James said it best...
"Try disallowed as the hooter went - rule in 7s, bell rings ball immediately dead. Two years in a row, very hard to cop.
Boys were OUTSTANDING. BEST DEFENCE in the whole tournament - 177 - 32 (for and against), 17 of which occurred in the GF. Have a look at the speed off the deck and on the ball at the tackle. Newport should just forget the result and recognise just how good these boys were - winners all round. VERY PROUD - WELL DONE BOYS"
And Well done to Head Coach Greg Lee - on a great start to the Season.
And Results were...
1st Grade: Newport 41 Old Ignatians 7
2nd Grade: Newport 24 Old Ignatians 0

President Jake wrote of the day...
Evening fellas..
Unlucky today. Tough with many out of action and UNSW showing up with a solid outfit across all grades.. nothing i dont think each grade cant handle come finals time.
We learnt some lessons;
1. Every single player in this club is super valuable. Many people doubled up today and THANKYOU to those that stuck their hand up to do so... Frank Kamara Cooper Mcmichael James Finn Zac Telfer to name a few (many many more) and a shout our to Harry Condon who played all of 2s and 1s on debut.. legend
2. Away games are what counts.. gone are the days of only being able to play home games.. we are always a force at home but solid clubs need to travel..
3. We can beat any team in any grade.. today we limped through 5 grades and only just fell short.. imagine if we train consistently and show up in numbers to rock the boat..
Iggies at Home next week fellas
Hope you all enjoy a schooner tonight
Yiew

PADDY SOARS CUP...
Saturday 29th January 2022
The Cricket was Done and Won - by the Grade boys for the second year (of two).
Awesome weather was enjoyed at Hitchcock Park from 3pm - although a late change of venue from Newport Oval was caused by a Council double- booking. But it didn't matter - Hitchcock was a great place.
If you'd like to hear one of the worst renditions of the National Anthem - of all time - then click here: National Anthem.
Perhaps we should consider a solo performance next year - but not Jed.
Pittwater Online News - Top billing...
Not for the first time, Alison Guesdon has turned up to photograph our event.
PS: It's Guesdon not Guesden - I've had it wrong for about 12 years.
How she manages to shoot, edit, caption and publish so many shots by Sunday morning is quite miraculous.
She has covered the front page with great shots of our teams and then under the Photos link has put up around 90 pictures. So, for a week you can view them all on the PON website
For posterity they've been copied to our club's server and will eventually live on our History page.
Video of the Game...
The video man was alongside the bowlers throughout most of the game attempting to get the umpire's view.
Not even Channel Nine do that! Only trouble is - having to keep ducking in case of a ball in the lens, which often means missing catches, or more likely dropped catches.
And a wide angle lens was needed for some of the bowlers!
An interesting rule was the "PowerPlay" in which the batter or bowler had to skull a beer.
And often, a batsman when out, was lucky to make it off the field in one piece.
The Umpires were Eddie Wayling and John Glenn (who made up his own rules to extend the game)
But importantly our new Head Coach (Greg Lee) was present and he got to know the players a lot more - especially after everyone retired to the NRC Clubhouse for extensive celebrations.
Finally, the Greg Lee Memorial Trophy was discovered (named after our much liked late President back in 1979).
This will be polished up for the Season with the prospect that our new Greg Lee will enjoy drinking from it.

Jake (our President) wrote of the day...
Thanks for all that helped out yesterday and what a splendid effort from colts and 1s.
I'd like to appreciate the effort from Blacktown yesterday who came to Newport completely under strength and put in a real effort, giving us a solid game in both grades. It wasn't that long ago that we struggled for numbers at away games and all had to play multiple games each day. Let's be grateful for how things have progressed and respect teams that are struggling yet still have a crack..
As it stands:
1st = Top of ladder
2nd = 2nd place
Colts = Top of ladder
3rd = 2nd place
4th = 2nd place
Div 2 Club Champs = 1st
Cowboy Cup = 1st
Huge effort but time to refocus and reenergise. We have a big shot at multi premierships this year..
This week we have a bye! Grade isn't training as Greg Lee is giving the boys time to refresh. Colts only training Thursday.
Wednesday, I've booked the auditorium at RSL for everyone to get together and watch the origin decider for a bit of bonding.
Well done so far this year everyone.. but the tough part starts against Beecroft at Headon Park in 2 weeks… they'll be up for it..
This was the Colts (U21) team after their 36 - 0 victory...
And in 1st Grade...
Nick Fretton broke through this lot to score under the posts...
