Storm’s A Coming….

The Invercargill Blues Rugby Football Club  is pleased to announce the first annual S. J. Mika Appreciation Night on Saturday May 8, following the formalities of a certain rugby match between the Mighty Blue Machine and the  fine young men of the Star Rugby Football Club. Lava-lavas compulsory.  Ladies a puletasi.  Blues chaps will be [...]

Go the G!

Good luck to Kenny G as the Highlanders take on the ‘Tahs tonight at Rugby Park.  Best centre in the Super 14, eh!

Midlands Keeps Us Top

Midlands get up over Star in the last minutes, so we stay top of the comp – just.  And to those Midlands supporters who tooted through the minute’s silence for Alla Harrison, there’s some big island boys who know who you are.  Hope you don’t rely on your car for anything….

Confused?

Some people might have been slightly confused by this statement in the Times today: “Blues managers Paddy Lewis and Sean Colyer also sorted out polished pivot James Wilson…” It’s not well-known that thanks to a communication device planted in James’ ear, Sean and I control his every movement.  Sean handles the kicking (“keep your head [...]

Kissing Your Sister? Nah.

A draw is more like winning a fight, only to be run down from behind by a runaway bus.  The bus, in this case, was called Bird. 25-25 at Les George Oval tonight.  Match report here.  Still top of the table, hoping that someone else gets knocked over tomorrow (just kidding, Andrew).

Match Report Is Up

You can find it here.  And, ah, for the first time in a few seasons….Preston Russell Law Blues is atop the table thanks to points differential. Team for tomorrow night’s match versus the Christian Soldiers is: 1 M Peterson 2 J Borland 3 D G Roberts (150th premier game) 4 H Fahey 5 S Low [...]

Tighter Than A Tight Thing With A Degree In Tightness From Tight University

Prems lead 29-3 at halftime. Ball mysteriously disappears in second half, but we hang on for a 29-25 win. Premier Bs decided to play mind games with the rest of the competition and lost 9-62 just to create some mystery….more to follow tomorrow

Lest We Forget

From the Blues’ archives in memory of ANZAC Day: “The Invercargill Football Club members were given a fine example of enthusiasm, loyalty and service by their colleague and later Life Member, Bill Robison…(in 1940) the then President had invited him to give a talk to the fourth and fifth grade boys who were being entertained [...]

Bloody Journalists

While it’s nice to get all this attention, i wish they’d get it right.  Blues plays Midlands at Winton tomorrow, the Sharks play the Nuggets at Stadium Southland tomorrow night. Sheesh.  The Premier 22 for tomorrow is: PRESTON RUSSELL LAW BLUES 1 G K Anderson 2 J Borland 3 D G Roberts 4 M R [...]

There Will Be…

…some interesting selections tomorrow night, with one potential member of the Prems 22 sitting on 99 Premier games. Meanwhile another will bring up 150 against Marist (unless he’s working).
