boys club from left to right match
referee uh in bright orange today is
Joel Pierce Joel pierce with Aaron Brown

that two was here Aaron Brown over there
shaking hands with the guys to take the
bench for high school old
boys and as I’ve said before we’re very
lucky to have the referees that we do
have they’re great
characters and a lot of fun
OBM will kick off from right to left of
your screen ran Brown Ted here wearing
the
10 OBM to kick off for the Peter Martin
cup a big winning score line last
season in this
uh round one
fixture OBM right foot kicking style
around the
corner ball back bounces past uh was
that the big guy Hatton is he starting
hatton’s on the field I know my
Hatton first whistle away of high school
old boys so first penalty awarded to
high school old boys by referee Joel Pi
at 16 years of age the youngest referee
that I can remember controlling a
premier fixture last weekend he had high
school old boys on the far side against
tppa y was 5520
5520 final score on Tiny wide opening
day OBM surprising everyone taking a
1514 lead into halftime on Tiny wide
opening day against East Coast Farm vets
ymp a big game today between these
two historic
clubs referee Pierce well positioned
checking those offside
lines ball thrown into
play OBM have the ball so they have won
the ball against the throw but lost the
ball forward after that referee
Pierce
calm at the start that’s what you’ve got
to
be not going to make a big deal of it
but the truth is being a taller referee
you have
a certain Viewpoint Hatton has uh
started this game here today for high
school all boys that’s a change change
to what we told was going to happen in
the blue and white front row I was
impressed with his enthusiasm last year
haton and from what I’ve been
told continue to develop and improve
great scrum here from the home team and
good pressure there on halfback George
Hal
Donley and halfway now still high school
old boys ball hi Donley Down The Blind
Side such as it is OBM making their
tackles first up no score and penalty
award there by referee Pierce is for not
releasing the ball on the ground big guy
Nelson
Moran darkhead up at the
front love that haton no score Reef t
for touch far side norwester with us
today kicking up into it finds good
touch those are the basics with it
without which you can’t play rugby there
ability to find
touch you know that ability to do the
basic things those core
skills Ru night ooy back of the oh that
was Jordan kingy up there for it and
kingy and OBM with good line out ball
for the first time oh no and the ball
seemed to get away there from ratu n
rooy but hands like meat dishes but lost
of all four
that’s well good solid tackle the ball
it just seemed to be getting further and
further away way Ru reaching out for the
ball it’s like that last little
chocolate frog in the shop
so no
score forwards this is what we call a
feeling out
process Zan Bole is the number eight for
a high school old
boys had to make changes Brian Howard is
the first five good scrum from OBM Hal
Donley a little tough there that last
pass at second five today we were told
we were going to see Cohen ller with
Ryland to and brown there’s Nelson Moran
big guy Incredible Hulk hulking run from
Moran evasive is George Haley Donley
getting to halfway as Brave a player as
you’ve ever seen penley award
here so that arm has swung both ways
from referee
Pier Brian Howard now he must touch same
way that well he’s made sure got that
ball going horizontally on its axis so
finding
touch ree tan and uh Brian
Howard tell you what looking at this
good only OBM have their socks up these
days didn’t you used to have to have
your socks up in the old days looking
around was a time you taped them
up no
score throw to come icebo throw of
course retained for the penalty
Far Side your loyal fans your rugby
people your rugby folk arms crossed
looking Grim your rugby
folk will thrown into play nice catch so
high school old boys have their line out
working
well tackle coming in Jo atama sewa nice
tackle from OBM sewa making some hard
yards there that Zan Bo with a very good
effort indeed attacking on the left air
and high school old boy starting to run
forward and straight and half
George H Dy that’s a short well looked
like a short pass through the Dummy ob’s
Defense holds
OBM holding strongly there that upper
body strength ball goes loose penalty
here from referee pierce the first
one potentially awarded within range
look at Nelson Moran striding back on
side we’re getting behind referee Pierce
more to the point so going to be
interest no how’s going to push again
you on it dead
here man
it’s I thought for a moment that he’
almost kicked it dead there how remember
they got the win in the first half
interesting kicking style
actually Lance Dixon threatening Mayhem
there front of the line out for OBM High
School old boys
throw lot of play centered around
halfway mark early in the
game good stuff from high school old
boys their line out working well here
the start of the game they needed their
set piece to be functional and Zan Bo
does he get there okay is short referee
Pierce in good
position OBM defending stoutly defending
manfully over him holding High School
old boys here High School old boys make
a lot of play Early in the game won a
couple of line outs can’t play the game
if you don’t have the ball and
OBM with grim determination have hung on
and turned him back he’s actually got
the hand up there well you know what
that’s not what I expected I thought the
way that the hand was raised pointing in
ob’s
Direction what of a try there from
referee
P I
think am I right in thinking that hand
needs to go straight up anyway Tri been
awarded for 5
n Brian how now to take conversion
attempt
impossible from this distance to tell
you who scored
that norwester
today OBM kicked
off High School old boys draw first
blood they needed to start well their
line out has looked pretty good OBM
scrum has looked as
impressive so OBM scrummaging strongly
early and the line out working for high
school old boys
before you can do anything else you need
those two things to work the scrum in
the line out low and flat not there from
uh Brian Howard who normally is a fair
goal kicker 5- nil at the moment
Earthworks High School old boys here on
Rai live over Enterprise cars OBM Joel
Pierce a second premere appointment for
the
season young man with a bright
future he’s a character too Joel he can
take a laugh does his best that’s what
we want we want people out there who can
who will give of their best which is
what these guys do every single
week okay High arching restart it’s out
on the
fall come back to halfway and Royce
mayard I remind you was over there on
the far side wearing some gy sort of
Australian gear I would think doesn’t
look like the Poverty Bay orange he was
wearing the last time he was
home so back to half Way Center ground
Lance
Dixon
ruoy powerful player the PowerHouse
there in number one Jordan behind
him Hatton up front Hatton versus this
is n
ooy so at the moment 5 nil no conversion
on the try scored by High School OB in
the left
corner this
is key area for OBM traditionally a
strong scrummaging side
they’ve got more muscle to come to with
the likes of Justin Allen get out there
later on he’ll show you how to do it
moment 5 nil High School old boys look
at Hatton that’s a Hatton on this side
the prop for high school old boys and
they are putting on a lot of pressure up
front it’s going to be a tough day up
front so Hatton there wearing the
one which would suggest to me he’s in
for to cavi with cisal On The Tight head
side hton is wearing the
one Brian
Howard so they’ve made a steady start
one shot of goal taken so far that one
shot unsuccessful tough from the
sideline Jordan King here good line out
forward for OBM be interesting to see
what he can do here put a little bit of
pressure on the throw from high school
old boys
Xavier kangi the hooker that line out
uh well I’m not quite sure what he’s
ruled happened there Bing I suppose
scrum OB him off for the scrum and they
have been very good at the set scrum
they’re asking for it
again beautiful day here we were told
the weather was going to be trash but
that hasn’t ended up happening weather
here very good sparse crowd at the
moment but it’ll build up some of the
people the guys I can see on the far
side they’ve been around for decades
upon decades and they love their High
School old boys theme very loyal what
they used to call The Thin Blue Line in
the old days at rugby park on the
hill okay strong stuff sewa off the bat
got over the G hard to stop
him the p n dver is the open side
flanker wearing the seven okay OBM now
with ball in hand tedro there slips a
man good run there tedro shifted from
the wing to full back for this game
Jordan kingy that’s good play good play
by kingy model play by the OBM tied
forward ball lost there KY had done
well Hatton hands on head
sometimes it’s not a bad thing to shove
the ball up your jumper as they say up
the Jersey make hard
meters thatu night ooi versus Hatton on
the side this is an interesting contest
the props on this
side and uh
eliser T bulay in the middle of the OBM
front row against Xavier kingy
the scrum is taking a long time to sit
to be honest George haly
Don to ni roou way on George haly Donley
with a cutout
pass OBM having to
recover okay and high school old boys
Fortune is favored the brave here their
second try got a good bounce but some
skillful play in the Midfield boot to
ball and a Chase equal to it so the
first two tries and the second lot of
points here to high school all boys
leading down 10- n a very good Chase on
the kick appeared to be Ryland TOA Brown
boot to ball and he’s very skillful I
can tell you something else that’s
intelligent play from high school old
boys well organized and purposeful OBM
strong at the scrum but they were very
quick get that ball go
left so they lead at the moment 10 n
Mark nen out there trainer with the uh
the floppy hat the jandal and the drink
bottle Joel
Pierce so a couple of tries no arguments
about either of these tries no wh
ifs checking the breeze
there 10 n High School all boys have
made the most of the possession they’ve
had early in the
game leading by
10 to nil this for 12
nil don’t forget it
was okay converted there by Brian Howard
this is very much the way the the tiny
white opening day fixture between OBM
and ymp
began OBM conceding uh two tries at the
start both of those were converted in
that case and this case only the second
TR has been converted the score is 12 to
nil Earthworks Solutions High School old
boys have made a good
start it has been some time since
they’ve had a win over Enterprise cars
OBM one thing they couldn’t afford to do
was to start badly restart a play there
rean tedia with a restart that’s a
wonderful
tackle marvelous tackle there by rean BR
Ted Kia a model tackle
and this day and there’s Hatton is it
there’s Hatton rolls into contact
hatton’s one of my favorites to be
honest I can’t really tell you why ball
goes loose High School old boys awarded
the penalty what a magnificent Tackle by
Reef time Brown Ted here Chase up on his
own
kick to be honest got to make the point
it’s very hard in this Modern Age to
make a tackle without somebody grumbling
about it but that was one that was
without a doubt The Tackle of the so far
Brian Howard is Gunn for touch Aaron
Brown over on the far side known as
monster in his Cricket playing days for
high school old boys big red fearsome
Pace bowler indeed Jacob
Hatton he’s propping
well been put under
pressure by Night oo the line out is
Good from high school old boys that you
know here now is Howard letting it
breathe Ryland to Brown strong great
play great play by Ryland to
Brown and that was loose and here’s
idra making strong meters so OBM picking
up a loose pass and now with ball in
hand starting to grind towards halfway
after Ryland TOA Brown it looked
threatening near halfway OBM no support
no support unfortunately could there
from Solomon rosari he’s a match winner
too on his day OBM now with ball in hand
and Mum as well OBM with momentum no oo
noon is he okay was he knocked out I
thought he might have been knocked out
he’s not looking good haton down mouth
full of dirt grass whatever man did he
go down
hard riie Tik here
that was uh the big guy n ooy v Hatton
or Hatton V versus n
oo smog monster meets Godzilla Obi with
ball in hand Lance
Dixon Lance Dixon score is at 12- nil at
the moment two tries of conversion Reef
T to wiu a brown Cohen ller I think they
made the
tackle offside play the’re ruling there
they tap and ran Ricky tenk here he does
this every year he is so dangerous from
the maybe no player is quicker Off the
Mark and
nobody the more consistent a scorer of
opportunist tries that Ricky Ted here of
OBM a marvelous try it’s very simple the
referee Blows the Whistle the penalty is
awarded you’ve got to get back and if
you don’t Ricky tedia I can get around
you I can get by you I can fly past you
that’s exactly what he did
teams they you know opposition teams
they Nash and curse but he was
definitely on side and they just
couldn’t recover close to the uh close
to the post so right next to the post
Ricky tedia is an expert at doing that
the OBM
Captain look at Royce Bard over there
servant of rugby that’s what he is Reef
who made the best one of the best
tackles I’ve ever seen to be honest that
tremendous tackle earlier that the
conversion attempt lot of height look at
the wind trying to push it back okay so
127 the score now and a five-point game
Ricky tedia you just knew it didn’t you
you could smell it soon as the penalty
was awarded that close to the
posts
unreal
127 five-point game OBM hit back having
conceded the first two tries of the
match Joel
is tall youngster with the
whistle restart
there MD profit here now is tied tiedra
fantastic tackle
there that’s a magnificent tackle too by
cicio palusa
celiso
paloa with a fantastic tackle there for
high school L boys
paloa Jo get seen a couple of extremely
good clean hard Fair
tackles touch there by Brian Howard look
more assured on the strike that time
enjoying this great rugby that we’re
seeing 12 points to seven a five-point
game look at that Nelson Mor there the
big lock for high school old boys he is
enormous throw to come High School old
boys George Hal Donley inspirational
Captain leader of
men looked up at Nelson Moran with a
stern look on his
face allall thrown in high school old
boys have it haly Donley into the
Midfield penalty Advantage here for high
school old boys who lead by Five Points
OBM
up there was Aiwa with a
tackle nothing wrong with The Tackle but
he had been playing Advantage
earlier offside is the ruling there from
referee Pearson no one’s arguing with
that 12 points to seven at the moment
this five-point
lead A lot’s happened already they
played a lot of
rugby good solid
rugby nothing flashy there been no need
fine touch okay Mark nen hey look
trainer Mark nen over there preparing to
to run from one side to the other with a
te High School old boys feeling that
they can break them here they want to
try and break OBM here OBM they’ve got a
lot of fighting
Spirit early
days but the line out has worked pretty
well for a high school OB that it
pleased
them Moran in the middle of the line out
jumping at
five okay and again more good ball
believe that was a paloa
that’s just really what you don’t want
if your high school old boys they’ve
already proven that they can win good
line out Ball but to not win the ball in
the right corner on
attack already seeing the
skills the flare of these players love
watching
Ryland 12 points to
seven five-point game set scrum OBM rean
front of well close to their own post
not quite in front of their own posts
certainly deep in their own 22 trailing
by five points and they have the kick
charged OBM they have the ball have
recovered someway
somehow but still at the wrong end and
needing needing desperately to find the
safety of touch
okay rolling there I believe is
accidental offside that crossed over
there
shepher as they
say so at the moment 12 to
7 5point
game excellent game of rugby shaping up
to be a
thriller certainly is does this profit
coming in going to ground go to ground
in that situation as fullback you don’t
want to turn it over High School old
boys high school old boys now Inn for
their third
try so three tries to
one and 17 points to seven a 10-point
gap
now 17 points to seven a 10-point
gap one thing’s for sure High School old
boys who scored the first two tries have
not rested on their Laurels here moment
ago they had a line out throw remember
in the right corner on attack the throw
was off got a scrum but they put good
pressure on OBM at the scrum no matter
how good your scrum is and we talked
about ob’s forward pack scrummaging very
well early in the game even so to be
having to uh hold the opposition in the
corner on your own goal line it’s not
easy to do Brian
Howard has Team Up by 10 points the
score
17-7 week two round one civil project
Solutions Premier
rugby wonderful sponsorship their
support of rugby their support of the
national game here our senior
competitions Brian Howard 19 points to
seven or rather 17 to7 70 to 7 this
would make it
19 okay ball off the te and it’s there
for 19
points to
seven 12 point
lead High School all boys knowing that
they’ve got a lot that they have to get
done in the first half they have
succeeded so far and playing the
majority of the game in OBM territory
that’s what you have to
do you’re going to make history you’re
going to change
history so one miss kick a goal the
first one from Brian how other than that
he’s been worth his weight and gold reft
tan Brown Ted has impressed me to his
defense restarts now restart a play
coming here from Tika cidra where’s the
15 boot to
ball okay call made by aan Bole comes
off the right foot makes good ground and
he’s an unobtrusive player but a quiet
achiever Z Bo okay and the big guy might
have looked up there lost of four that’s
pretty cut and dried
rugby is one of those games it can be
very small margins and people will oo
and AR about was it for was no doubt
about that it’s pretty straightforward
lost forward there 19 points to 7
12-point game and perfect conditions on
a really goodlooking gizan noal
ground don’t know who it is that does
that whether it’s w services or not a
labor of love and it doesn’t look too
bad at all
okay here’s AR t ball in hand ball lost
forward on in the 21 now Austin Brown
start Co May
there Joel
Pierce it’s been pretty accurate so
far generally at ground level here you
get a sense of whether or not players
and Spectators are happy with the
performance of a referee but you don’t
hear outraged howls and howls of Anguish
down here they’re pretty they’re overall
they’re pretty happy don’t worry you’ll
know it if they’re not so 19 points
to7 Xavier
kingy P merila is the four celiso
paloa throw to come impressive the way
that this has worked so far for the
visitors they are the visiting team High
School old boys home game for OBM that
line out was Scrappy that’s the first
one
well perhaps the second one that they’ve
lost but generally they’ve been good in
that area OBM with the ball in the
Midfield holding on to the
ball time to
ground okay having to make some hard
meters here and at some stage has got to
happen wow and some big shoulders got to
run hard got to run
straight so OBM to
ground that was tedra with the
15 okay that’s sewa away to out ni roou
way OBM ranging out on that what okay
the pass has been ruled forward by Joel
pier and again players can only ask of
you as a referee that you’re in position
to make that call and he was right there
he was right on
it 19 points to
seven four tries in the game 3 to one
high school old boys here at the gizman
noal
see that parkk out the front Harold EV M
the gisburn noal one of our historic
grounds close by of course the Victoria
domain otherwise known as the netb
courts they used to play first 15 rugby
there a very long time
ago hadn’t been concreted obviously
Ryland to wide all brown so powerful
like his father doesn’t feel pain Chris
Brown one of the roughest toughest guys
ever played here on a rugby ground or a
rugby league field ball goes loose and
that that’s a pretty terrible looking
situation over there Jack willick over
there every now and then you need some
messy rugby some Scrappy rugby that was
it so 19 points to seven 12-point game
and Joel Pier OBM
scrum sometimes you know you’re excited
you feel as if things are running your
way but you’ve still got to watch the
ball into the hand
catch the ball A to B B to C C to D
can’t be jumping that to get to
D nice roou way good service that’s a
good pass rean has it rean short ball
strong stuff here from OBM good support
play George Hy dley he fall on the ball
the ball went forward High School old
boys have the ball off a turnover
Midfield around about 6 met into OBM
territory going left Zan Bo got the pass
away
OBM having to tackle some of these big
guys these concrete mixes for high
school old
boys powerful over the advantage
line playing impressively the away team
at the moment up by 12
points both teams have shown some Flare
high school all boys have had the line
share of possession
the greater share of possession of the
ball Aaron Brown Far Side ding the back
Lin’s on his side to stay on side and
exactly where that uh offside line is
Jacob Hatton over here who took a
fearful battering earlier I think it was
n Odo went straight at him and knocked
him into the middle of next week but
Hatton is up and running
again player safety is huge but you
don’t need people running out there
every five minutes for something that’s
obviously in no way
serious good stuff here OBM OBM oh great
hands OBM good hands there helps when
you got big hands here’s Ricky Ted here
had to go in him there really did that
was Scott hatwell had a crack at him
here’s Jordan kingy running hard running
straight taking it like a man right up
to the line there good stuff good rugby
OBM behind the advantage line but under
advantage
going backwards their OBM but of course
here is applying
Advantage now the first person to be
honest that High School old boys have to
be watching out for here is Ricky Ted
here because as is already shown today
Take Your Eye Off him at your peril Joel
pierce with the inquiry touch
touch I’ve been getting a a little bit
of stick lately for these misprints it
is Joel Pierce repeat Pierce not piering
Pierce moment 19 points to seven
12-point
game that night
ooy he is a big guy and aggressive and
good on him you got to use what God gave
you player down
that Brandon Hart out there The Silver
Fox Brendan
har Poverty Bay
man and again one of the great
characters okay balls Lo went forward
off
OBM here’s some of the fans on that side
rather
horse it’s always what’s happening when
your voice breaks
moment 19 points to S 12-point
game they’ve made a good start here High
School old
boys it’s going to say that way in will
be floating around he’ll be going up and
down the sideline watching
on
marching sure steady stride a
victory so they might think Aaron Brown
side that Far Side here at the gizan
noal scrum to pack High School old boys
to feed the scrum George haly Donley so
far has uh showcased his
quickness and as always his immense
bravery okay penley award there from our
referee
Pierce I enjoy some of his
signals sometimes
every now and then there’s a signal I’m
not quite sure of brings to mind one of
my all-time favorite referees was a guy
called Colin Shanks who’s a great
character I wasn’t always entirely sure
of some of those
either Aaron
Brown game has been played in a very
good spirit doesn’t surprise me these
are two teams which you know these guys
know what Rugby’s all
about I must admit the Modern Line out
is the mystery to me guys don’t seem to
be in my time they were two very
straight lines and now they come from
well that’s what happens when they’re a
meter
apart throw to
come okay excellent work at the line out
again and their line out is very good
indeed High School old boys very good
Halon L going to release these guys
release the
beast tackle there made by by siwa
OBM lost the ball
forward OBM scrum just pouring there on
the ground referee Pierce made a little
Mark and dainty
toe discipline so far by these teams has
been very good too no yellow cards have
been issued certainly no red
ones OBM
scrum and excellent
contest atou
way about to feed the scrum strong scrum
platform hey somebody kicked it Forward
they weren’t supposed to do that OBM get
the ball eventually lean into driver the
open side in the seven and they have
Pace give these guys a chance to run we
haven’t seen ob’s guys run not run free
when they run free you’ll know it here
now is Dixon Lance Dixon Lance Dixon
runs it up look at him bouncing there he
was bouncing along L Dixon was bouncing
along and improving smack on the butt
from mat rocket to way see what Dixon
did he
was there was a amazing that was almost
historic okay
scrum 19
points to
seven 19 points to S 12-point
game OBM have got some people out here
that can run like the
wind and high school old boys wisely
have shut them down as soon as possible
here’s our roou way now with a long
pass and lost forward there
unfortunately El like here
biku he’ll get another chance chances uh
little way off at the moment High School
old boys with this 19-7 score line the
12-point lead
for the first time you can hear the
crowd on the far
side sheer disgust that’s what you can
hear over
there people here are very passionate
about their
rugby but the crowd Behavior this season
so far has been excellent two weeks in
these are people who know the game
inside and
out and they keep it all in perspective
19 points to
seven 197 Aaron
Brown
197 12o game OBM for back okay now it’s
on the OBM
side they might have been wondering whe
okay that’s uh hooker talabi good play
halfway and here come OB with a ball in
hand some of these guys are so powerful
imagine the upper body strength is
unreal here’s roou way that’s rean nice
pass oh look that pass how about that
pass that’s ban I haven’t seen that for
a long time over him there with ball on
the ground they’ve laid the
egg okay rolling is clear from referee
Pierce Advantage off Sid said referee
Pierce look at them kicking out of
tackles here OBM that tremendous
strength I said with ball in hand ball
in hand now ball to that’s a rock and
here is a rean Reon was going to kick it
now he’s going to run it Reon holds on
to the ball OBM with a ball in hand
still rean
there well High School old boys were on
side their advantage obms Advantage did
it run out or not well look at these two
big poppers over here oh third
popper tell you what well some big guys
Nelson Mor in there
immediately I tell you what some big
guys they came
together guys thrown to Earth Nelson Mor
these are big people haven’t seen any
fists
fly it is as wild once said much to do
about nothing so at the moment 19 points
to seven a 12-point game referee P I’ve
never seen the young man have a serious
word so for the first time here referee
Pi serious word with the captains George
haly dony and Ricky
tedia referee
Pier making his feelings
known he’s run a tight ship so far he’s
had a good game young referee
Pier okay he keeps uh everybody on the
field has he blown his whistle yet yes
yeah look there he blew his whistle I
was waiting for the whistle actually so
19 points to S 12-point game I thought
it was going to get hairy there for a
minute
civil project Solutions Premier rugby
week 2 round
one 19 points to 7 12-point game I’m
enjoying
myself 19 points to
seven but referee piered in that
situation was to diffuse the situation
to deescalate it is that what they say
19 points to
seven seen really good rugby good
quality rugby hard but fair
[Music]
okay OBM ball Ricky tit here close to
the line close to the line is dangerous
Ricky tit here close to the line holds
the ball up night ooy night ooy I
thought he got there he must have been
close he must have been very very close
n oo try OBM there in the end OBM second
try so now 19 points to 12 and come up
with it that’s unbelievable you know
that’s the second time that wasn’t
strictly speaking a tap kick off a
penalty anything like that but boy at
that distance you got there are some
people that you cannot take your eyes
off was 19 to7 for a long time now 19 to
12 with there being every possibility of
it being 1914 after this
now Hearts were and Ms a few minutes ago
because everybody was wondering whether
or not they were going to keep 30 people
on the pitch they did referee Pier said
what he needed to
say 19 points to 12 this will be 19
points to 14 if the kick at goal if the
attempt is successful Reef time Brown
Ted here who has impressed me in general
play once or twice he’s run at the line
held on to the ball wide Ley seems to
have a full range of
options 19 points to 12 this for 1914 it
would be a fivepoint
spread if he makes it 1912 he has it
online 194 five-point
game 19 to 14 a five-point game at the
halftime break 19-4 here on longai with
OBM scoring the last try of the first
half
19-4 five-point game high school all
boys with the first two tries of the
match and it’s been very good
rugby good to see
you for
this well this is an interesting
G I got the impression 19 to 14 I got
the impression that high school all boys
really had to make the most of that
first half they did they got a lead and
they did until they last yeah aren’t you
aren’t you happier though going into the
game half time with like a 10o lead you
know you need to be out oh
yeah I’ll tell you what I’ve impressed
by the young guy especially over here is
pretty calm he’s very visible
he’s a good lead
like
SC e

[Music]
give me AE spe
tell you what I feel a lot better this
week last week there was something wrong
with the chair that I had the feet sunk
into the
mud was very tough here’s Matt
profit 19 points to
14 that 12-point Gap sliced to
five
profit left foot restart I thought his
shoe was going to fall off there for a
second ball is bounced down that’s fine
by OBM they’ll throw the ball into
play no touch no OBM
touch Far Side High School old boys
fandom over on that Far
Side throw to come ob’s kingy where is
he okay nice stuff OBM line out here’s
Ricky Ted getting well here’s tedia here
now and make makes again good
ground he makes very very good ground
consistently boot the ball
there takes a second bounds you got to
be careful you’re going to let that
happen near halfway Ryland to Wi Brown
who is fearless went past re time Brown
T here some good play OBM picking up
their game in defense ball might have
been played on the ground with thought
Advantage Now High School old boys High
School old boys Howard a away to clear
got the pass
away hear a big grunt over
there some pretty earthy rugby guys are
squealing well that okay grabbed him
dragged him back in and referee
Pierce can’t pull the wo over his
eyes impressed referee Pier here young
Joel that’s all you want to see from
from a referee or a player is that
Improvement every week that’s what you
see a lot of people talk about the
perfect per there is no perfect
performance but people are improving
every week which is all you’re after
moment 19 points to 14 a five-point game
a good game of rugby guys want to play
good rugby look L Dixon there with some
skin some thing there the the big gu was
that PUO throw to come okay Zane Bo not
hand to him but the throw wasn’t
straight Nelson
Moran a quizzical expression on the face
of Nelson
Moray at the moment 19 points to
15 rather 140 19 to4 19 to
14 two converted
tries atou way
that
scrum okay rifton has it holds it up got
some good
skills OBM encountering Stone resistance
there in the
Midfield some hard tackling they want
the ball Brian Howard has it Zan Bo got
it away a moment ago Ryland to white or
brown OB in there with very good defense
they recognize the constant danger he
represent
moment 19 points to 14 Five Points in it
five-point game forget that that was the
halftime score 19 to 14 five-point game
ball has become
Static penalty
here from referee Pierce in the last
little
while has cast a
frown in ob’s
direction that hooker that
Xavier he is a a big
lead why you think is a relative too
Aaron Brown Far Side Royce
mayard back in action and back in rugby
and back in Poverty Bay rugby which is a
good thing it’s been very missed very
much
missed on this side Jack willick for
high school old
boys high school old boys forwards good
s well organized they’ve been well
organized up front line out was good OBM
scrum was very good in the first half
early stage of second half too early to
tell how things will pan out at the set
scrum here in the second half here’s to
a beautiful
pass obms tackling is
sure okay they swing it to Howard Howard
back to profit profit bumps away from a
wouldbe tackler now around about 5 m out
from the goal line and 5 m wide of the
posts they press right again High School
old
boys okay OBM have got to make the
tackle here hold them up on the line or
at least get underneath them High School
old boys very very close to scoring high
school old boys stay patient you’ve got
to be patient leading at the moment 19
points to 14 a five-point game and still
OBM hold them still OBM hold on under
Advantage High School old boys have can
they crack them here OBM good tackling
right on the line
High School old boys probing
[Music]
digging okay that’s a second whistle
blast there from referee
Pierce and uh is he here reaching for a
card here referee
Pi he is uh having a look at a
player well referee Pierce wants a word
Ricky Ted here I don’t see a
card I have just seen
one o Polo is
it okay so a card has been
issued by referee
Pierce okay High School old boys try and
make the most of this situation remember
now it’s 15 on 14 they’re right on the
goal line near the left touch line they
lost the ball forward their High School
old boys so they have the numbers
Advantage
but they’d probably be a little bit
disappointed with the way that ended
up ball going
forward OBM a yellow
card referee
Pierce game has been played in a good
spirit so far but I suppose if it’s got
to be
n w up strong player
indeed the
19 so 19-4 at the moment a five-point
game unable to push across
Ricky
tedia got to admire the way he handles
these situations tedia he doesn’t
Grizzle doesn’t shake his
head only play what’s in front of you
that’s what you’ve got to
do Austin Brown over here in
21 OBM with a relieving penalty man they
had to fight there save a try on the
goal
line obia making ground over the game
Line This is good play got themselves
some breathing
space little more room just a little
more room mind you everybody’s on side
rean there with the right
foot okay Jack willick does Well Jack
willick Jack willick trying to get
around his man and he couldn’t quite get
by Ela baliku baliku with a good tackle
on Jack Willet here now is Zan Bo
High School old boys and that was zavier
kingy who’s had a good game that’s
Justin Allen off the top rope landing on
top there of Xavier kingy Brian Howard
swings the pass Ryland to W brown nice
weight on that pass to profit profit one
more pass out wide on the right so high
school all boys still have a five-point
lead 19 points to 14 OBM with a
converted try shortly before the
halftime break Zan Bole has had a very
strong game
19 points to 14 five-point game got to
stay in control you want to stay on top
high school old boys retain possession
their ball retention has been pretty
good
okay powerful stuff from their forward
pack their forwards have covered
themselves in glory
today ply
Now High School old boys
well referee Pierce out there you can
keep some of the people happy all of the
time you can keep all of the people
happy some of the time but you can never
keep all of the people happy all of the
time penalty
[Music]
Award 19 points to 14 this five-point
game for the Peter Martin
cup marris man Peter M finds
touch Aaron Brown he was going to run
past the the point in which the ball
went out so excited to have a little run
down the
sideline these referees all of the fans
were very excited in the lead up to this
game it’s great to have satday rugby in
these perfect conditions really ideal
conditions for the national
game 19 points to
14 Aaron Brown assistant
Referee on the that sidel
line High School OB Xavier kingy the
line out has been a strength of
theirs but I can remember three
occasions on which the ball was not
thrown in straight Justin Allen out
there will help not just in terms of
scrummaging but also his work at the
line out powerful guy and carries the
ball very
powerfully I can remember Justin and his
brother Jody is Young
heck I can remember them when they were
in intermediate school have the years
gone by so
quickly first 15 together
2006 okay Reef
time there with the a kick which is
taking a high bounce just before halfway
here’s Matt profit in good position will
on his outside to his left defense is
pretty good W profit there that’s not
going to be called a dangerous throw it
was a
tackle tell you what they used to call
that in Airplane spin in the old days to
ground there High School old boys trying
to get the ball Nelson Mor there hulking
up he is huge
honestly play
there here’s Brian Howard with a nice
pass here’s Cohen laugher he gets a good
pass
away OBM the question is being asked
once more they held them here earlier on
CH Donley can OBM hold them again High
School old boys grind inexorably towards
the line High School old boys up by five
early
stages second half guys are screaming
for the ball in the
Midfield they want it here they want it
here now they want lots of
things getting the big guy was that
Moran again got to go low on
him got to bring the big guy down down
by the
ankles High School old boys again now
with some urgency ball loose well that
happened you know really they lost a
little control
there try
here okay I’m not sure if that was kingy
or
not well I tell you what high school old
boys now
go to 24 points to 14 so a 10-point gap
again
I thought that they lost control of the
ball on the ground I didn’t think they
lost it forward but I thought that their
body position was too high and that OBM
was going to push them off the
ball so now 24 points to 14 10-point Gap
Brian
Howard they had control then it looked
for a moment as if they might turn the
ball over they regain control and they
score really that’s the weight of
possession
you have to come up with points when
you’re in you know when you have
possession of the ball for that long
you’ve got to come up with
something they did 24 points to 14
remember halftime score was 19 points to
14 five-point
game now it’s a 10-point
game 2414 Brian Howard this unassuming
young
man really neat young character loves
his rugby I might point out that
Nationwide one of the most popular rugby
grades we’ve got is the under 85
kilogram Division and he is a
player that would slot nicely into that
as well as a hey I thought you sure
about that okay fair enough
2414 well the kicker didn’t complain
about it
2414 then was Joel Pierce comparing
notes there with the Brian Howard
2414 a 10-point
game was 55- 20 on tiny white opening
day 55 to
20 Co scolding
taai 5520 Kahu scaffolding
tapa over earthwork Solutions High
School old boys and East Coast Farm vets
ymp here 49-
15 over
OBM two first half
tries last week for
OBM so
far two
tries High School old boys enjoying a
Purple Patch here at the moment didn’t
convert that last
try but they are up by 10 okay guys
being caught behind the uh gain
line nice clearer from Hy
Donley and that there is a strong
[Music]
tackle that was Lance Dixon lovely guy
off the field but he’s a very powerful
guy Lance Dixon if he wants to put you
on the earth he will Xavier
kingy good play Xavier kingy
penalty award from referee Pierce nson
Moran the Jolly
giant at the moment
24 points to 14 Brian Howard there I
don’t think he’s found
touch that went forward off High School
L boys if if that ball didn’t go into
touch directly the hand on it was a high
school La was
had however well placed as Aaron Brown
one of the Arts of an assistant referees
to actually have enough depth on the
sideline that you can see what’s going
on you’re too tight you can miss
something that makes perfect sense for
our assistant
referees further are you are from the
action the better you see
it Xavier kingy will make the throw in a
minute line out’s taking a little while
to get going really it took too long
Ricky Ted’s got it Ricky tedia an
excellent run excent ENT rugby from the
OBM
Captain good stuff as that does H
wer what a powerful what a powerful run
there from what a run okay up around
about 3 m short of halfway three shorter
halfway here’s kingy accelerates big guy
accelerating fighting trying to kick his
way out of a tackle couldn’t do so OBM
Down The Blind Side now attacking hard
this is good rugby here
so OBM still have the ball they’re on
side Bulls on the ground here it’s a rck
is a s wer again short pass good play
that was a Solomon Rari lost the ball
forward oh the referee’s going to have a
word
here s w those are guys you don’t want
to get in between those
guys honestly you don’t want to get
between one or the other that’s what you
got the whistle for
[Music]
then got Austin Brown back out
there tell you what see these guys they
are some big
guys no point jumping in between them
and saying excuse me that’s not
appropriate that will mean very little
over 24 points to
14 no such is a reflection room around
here 24 points to
14 with a pained expression on his
face did you see that Mr Pierce you saw
it didn’t you don’t tell me you missed
it you kind of missed
it refree Joel
Pierce I think one of the things you
really want to do here is humanize the
Players yes they do their best yes they
want to win the game but it is at this
level a game only mind you the Peter
Martin cup is a treasure OBM don’t want
to hand that over they Trail at the
moment by 10 points but they still have
the Peter Martin cup and until fulltime
whistle blows not going anywhere okay
good scrum from OBM I told you the scrum
had been good that was a Brian Howard
with boot to ball is that a aidra yes it
is very very good defense that will over
there no what look over here
seemingly so OBM pushed off the ball
High School old boys have the ball now
there’s Moran looked like some huge sort
of Yeti or something the way he ran away
over there on the right so ball takes a
high bounds T CRA in
Pursuit I now know the word I was
looking for when Moran made that big run
it was a shambling run shambling run
there from uh the big guy Moran
24 points to
14 10-point
game got to be out there Shadows grow
long here at the
oval wonderful
ground those of a certain vintage would
have grown up playing Junior rugby here
at the oval and at camp and at the show
grounds those who go back far enough
back in the days when on Saturday
mornings there was nothing but sport no
devices 24 points to
14 got to say in the lead up to this
that the coaches the people have been
focused it wouldn’t be rugby if there
weren’t
passions once or
twice individuals with less control
might have got carried away but these
guys have been very good 24 points to 14
a 10-point game this penalty attempt is
successful from Brian Howard make it 27
points to 14 OBM would need to score two
converted tries they would need to score
twice 2414 a 10-point game rugby of a
good standard remember this is only week
two you can’t expect too much 24 to4
Ball’s on its way
okay the shot is off still
2414 and OBM with a h and a roar get
over the gain line that was Austin Brown
good run from him OBM again it’s a Ricky
tedia over out of L Dixon short pass
Play It’s the caller forward pass it’s a
penalty penalty
here Joel
Pier Joel Pierce
here now is Austin Brown left footer
that’s a big left
foot Austin there finds a very good
touch beautifully
judged Austin Brown with lovely touch
High School old boys at the moment 24
points to 14 10-point
game it has been tough rugby it’s been a
hell of a lot of fun but it’s been tough
[Music]
T
bulay about to make the
throw okay OBM have Justin Allen has it
anybody can kick out of a tackle he can
OBM have it good refering there by
referee Pierce somebody want to press
the panic button ruled knock on not the
ruling from referee Pierce Austin Brown
now coming back off the right foot he’s
incredibly
strong Solomon Rari with a start there a
moment ago is there a whistle coming
here from referee Pier OBM don’t want it
OBM don’t need it they have the
ball it’s a songa man Mountain that he
is OBM numbers here on the right big
numbers on the right here’s Lance Dixon
caught in the tackle they surrounded
Dixon they encircle
Dixon
over down the sideline now with their
arms used in that
tackle referee
Pierce well you didn’t think there were
arms in
there the try is scored so that’s now 24
points to
19
2419 2419 here’s uh
Austin Brown from the near touch
line on ground number one here at the
gizbar
noal 24 points to
19 2419 Austin
Brown with the hopes and dreams of the
OBM
faithful resting on him
2419 the ball’s in the air does it come
back enough no it doesn’t still 24 to
19
2419 and this is where kicks a goal at
the other end of the park as when Brian
Howard missed that conversion of the
last try becomes so
important
2419
249 so it’s a 5 point
game and right now the margins for error
of both of these teams are pretty small
one forward
pass one line out throw that’s off
restart by profit is a very good one
very accurate taking the high bounds
gave his teammates a chance to get up
there and contest possession
2419 okay that was a tough one was that
Xavier kingy man he went down heavily
there lost his ankles and his knees in
the process
High School old boys penalty awarded 24
points to 19 five-point
game 24-
19 they look for touch
tell you the truth where that penalty
was awarded that was they were very wide
out on the right hand
side the other thing though is that
there there’s no tea immediately to hand
that option goes out the window anyway
24 to
19 Jacob Hatton has had a pretty good
game up front and also on this side Jack
Willock had a pretty good game I
think was here earlier wearing 11 has
since been replaced
[Music]
now I was told Cory de would wear 22 but
I know Cory and uh it doesn’t look like
him so high school old boys inching
their way towards the
line
nose to the grindstone shoulder to the
grindstone
here
okay would not release the ball on the
ground
Austin
Brown 24
points to
19 it’s also moments like this that a
player can’t afford to be distracted if
you’re a goal kicker for either team or
should I have landed this one or did I
start it too wide on the right you can’t
afford to worry about that that is
done this is the Here and Now civil
project Solutions Premier grade
rugby with week two of the first round
in
2024 okay that’s Jordan kingy with a
spectacular take absolutely spectacular
nice hands there from Austin Brown has
the strength of a front row
forward Rock two away nice hands there
OBM with some good hands Ted here this
tiedra okay bounces into Cohen
lla Cohen
lla did very very well there loose ball

honest I thought Cohen ller did
extremely well there I really did he
made the tackle got back up tried to
contest
it young man there did really
well youngster of uh 18 19 years of age
you’re out there with some you know guys
in their early 20s and they’re powerful

ears proud to play for him or Ricky
tedia both brilliant leaders at George
with a good pass nice pick up Ryland to
W brown Ryland to Wi Brown getting the
ground will the whistle be blown
OBM there contesting possession man are
they disputing possession at the moment
is that Jordan King did he fall over I
thought he fell over
inadvertently still 24 points to 14 at
the moment what happens here players are
mystified dumbfounded waiting for the
whistle to be blown ain’t going to be
blown you got to play to the whistle
that Zan ball going
[Applause]
forward no here he is
here penalty
here play down the in boys

of the high school old boys players on
the
head well that that’s what happens you
can’t afford to take your eye off it hit
you right in the face honestly it’s it’s
no
good it’s Austin Brown with that boot
man that’s a
boot that left foot of Austin Brown and
of course they have the
throw 24 to

14 had a couple of important yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah with the last try
2419 the try in the
corner
2419
2419 okay is it Jordan is it
not well that’s Joel
Pierce 24 to 19 they’re going to allow
the sub in so that would that would seem
to be good reason to give Obi the
throwback I would I would have thought
I would have thought that would be
reason to give OBM the throwback
again
2419 five-point game Reit tedak here
Master forward throw the ball into play
Jordan at two s w further back there at
five okay for Jordan kingy’s grabbed in
the air loose ball situation everybody
hairs after the ball L forward by high
school all by OBM rather
one word can say so
much as we all express our frustration
in different
ways 24 points to 19 Peter Martin Cup
held by OBM High School old boys with
the best challenge they’ve made for it
in a very long time their best match
effort against toian for a very long
time from memory it
was 19 to 12 at half or 19 to4 at
halftime from memory yes 19 to4 at
halftime 24-9 now the big scrum pushes
on George Alid Donley High School Alloys
I thought they were going to clear or at
least look to clear Cohen ller the
lightweight got a pass away did well
under
pressure you got a [ __ ] you want to do
it in the opposition half
on 24 points to 19 I’m sorry if we lad
you a stray before it’s a five-point
game 2419 Five Points in it Joel Pierce
this real Proving Ground for
players the last 10
minutes fewer than
10 but with time
enough to score here the home team on
oval number one the Peter Martin cup is
theirs at the moment
still high school old boys played one
last one here set W hooks the pass got
it away to rosari OBM have it OBM are
going to score oh they got a
score OBM they got there and the rolling
is a try there from referee Pierce
almost anticlimactic I wonder whether he
was going to war that or not he was so
far off the pace that’s
why he was on the 22 line when the tri
was scored certainly OBM with a
tremendous Breakout
now scores are
level
24
24 from memory it was 19 points to 14 at
halim so it was a five-point game at
halim OBM have fought back and now it’s
24
all
obviously High School old boys have to
win the game
to take the Peter Martin
cup OBM have drawn
level when the chips were down and when
it was most
required s Wonga and Company Ricky Ted’s
team has hung
on and they had to dig extremely deep to
draw level here 24 all Austin Brown
height is good on the kick has the
height misses its away to the left but
they have drawn level for the first time
since the kickoff the
teams the scores are Level earthwork
Solutions High School old boys and
Enterprise cars OBM have played
extremely good rugby in this week two
match some people were talking to me
before about this being round two it’s
not round anything it’s round one it’s
week two this is the first
round OBM coming off that 15 to 49 loss
East Coast Farm vets young malti party
two-time defending Champions Jordan
kingy the ball went
backwards and of course K scaffolding
tapa newly readmitted to the premier
grade beating High School old
boys 55 to
20 last weekend on oval ground number
two here on oval one and idilic
conditions it’s 24 all late stages
second and half OBM lying in weit for
high school old boys now like a spider
High School old boys ball in hand Brian
Howard numbers here Ryland to white
brown Zan Bole has it okay was that
accidental off site or not I think
that’s you know that’s fair enough by
referee
Pierce guys are only
human Brian Howard out to Moran such a
big guy Colossus Moran on the ground
there looks stunned and prone here Brian
Howard ball in his hands high school old
boys is this a last gasp effort from
high school old
boys enormous match effort to win the
Peter Martin cup more than that for the
honor High School all Bo it’s profit
profit gets a pass away High School all
boys needed to make one last pass they
needed to make one last pass OBM cut
them down cut them off at the pass if
you will 24 all what happens here you
don’t want to lose control of the ball
in this situation got to retain
possession and stay on side oh it’s a
devilishly hard game to play this rugby
so
complex the boy oh boy the margins are
narrow the stakes infinite as Churchill
once said and at the moment okay they
lost the ball forward there they lost
the ball
forward cor there is a forward pass 24
all it’s a scrum OBM scrum
remember the first error was high school
old boys losing the ball on the ground
OBM acre neither a tactical nor
territorial
Advantage 24
all there’s still time to win there’s
still time to lose OBM near their own
goal line eyes wide open or Eyes Wide
Shut depending on your point of view
High School old boys who lead from
memory 19 to 14 at half
time they have had the question asked of
them do you want to hang on to this
Peter Martin cup would you like to keep
it well certainly that question’s been
asked and they’ve answered here in the
second half heads might have
hung heads might have dropped but they
didn’t chins might have dropped but they
didn’t the situation app play you’ve
just got to remember what it is your job
it is to
do and use your skills
the other thing is Frankl it been an
awful thing to lose this game or lose
possession by not either putting the
ball in on time or not even taking a
shot of goal on
time time is
precious the one thing you lose you
never get back at the moment 24 all OBM
the last scores had a chance with a
conversion attempt to win the game here
now is Austin Brown with a left foot
down the sideline Austin Brown finds
touch and still we play
onve I think the club should be pretty
pleased with us today this hasn’t been
higgledy piggledy rugby these teams have
played very good
rugby around the traps of
course we haven’t heard much but we hope
to
East Coast FV
ymp down there at Barry
Park and I think pirates from memory
they’ve got tle ey at tle ey and that’s
um that’s a big
ask OBM ball in hand you want to play
the game down the other end of the
ground this is where sometimes you got
to Curb Your Enthusiasm Austin
Brown Austin to
ground OBM get to ground they weren’t
tackled that player so he got back up
and tried again everybody’s on S side at
the moment that is a little bit rough at
the moment that was
aari OBM trying to bust out round about
nine out from
halfway got to hold on to the ball here
and maybe the conventional pass callair
is a high tackle it’s been ruled upon by
referee Pi Austin Brown to pass t cedre
t cedre with one man outside one
inside tremendous tackle there Al Polo
was the center in 13 that’s
tiedra tiedra B to ground drag down
there tiedra Obi with ball in hand
trying hard here played a tremendous
game to dong of the
18 that was depending on your point of
view the whistle of Doom from referee
Joel Pierce
of course the angle appears to be very
wide but if you bring the ball back that
angle is reduced considerably no it’s
going to be a scrum okay OBM off for the
scrum the luciid scrummage in feed is
theirs now at the moment 24 all I heard
the word there word used there was
Redemption I heard it very
clearly but who’s to be redeemed I mean
High School all boys Haven had their
hands on the Peter Martin cup for a few
years now no BM of
not betrayal finally they’ve drawn
level 24 all a successful kick at goal
they would have led in the game also
High School old boys would have had to
restart okay OBM have it have to Leap
Frog guys OBM Jordan kingy who has
played a magnificent game he’s played
one of his finest games in OBM colors
today Jordan kingy he has been heroic
today
and OBM to the last to the line and have
been wanted a try and that really is a
match winning try for 25 24 or rather no
sorry 29 yes 29 29 24 sometimes it gets
away from you but they have got a big
lead here 292 24 it would take
incredible effort now for high school
old boys to come back they would have to
they’d have to go well 50 m at least
obviously from the
restart 29
24 well you say God loves a try or
everybody loves a
try OBM for the first well that’s their
first lead in the
game
29 24 this for 31
431 Austin now he’s
uh he’s away tough hard to judge that 29
24 with a try on fulltime Enterprise
cars
OBM have retained the Peter Martin cup
they have shown strength of character
they have shown
resilience they had to dig very deep
come from behind wi having Trail 4 to 19
at the halftime break and to take it 29-
24 it took them all but about 70 77
minutes or whatever it was to draw level
finally they come up with it rck t Kia
you know they had a player get a
card and somehow they’ve come through it
so it’s their first win of the season
first win here in week two of round one
in the 2024 civil project
Solutions Premier rugby grade so it’s
their first win of the season one no
saer against traditional Rivals High
School old boys will be their guests at
the club rooms later on Justin Allen a
successful return to rugby for him today
and a marvelous match effort from both
these teams who played good rugby under
the watchful eye of Joel Pierce Aaron
Brown Royce mayard they can be happy
with that Poverty Bay rugby fans and
supporters can be happy with that it was
well worth watching
