Satanic Verses 5 v Wolfpack 7

A solid contingent of enthusiastic Verses were present at Logan Park for the early 10am kick-off to get their weekly footy fix. The boys in the devil red came in hot, retrieving the seed immediately after a Big C kick-off and stringing together a number of pick and go phases, stating an early dominance over the Wolfpack. The final play of the 2nd quarter seen 5 points come in the form of a bo rabbitt line break, the Verses camp was in high spirits. Early in the 3rd, Heens tucked the pill under his left wing and decided to have a dart inside his on 22. The infamous right fend went out as a couple of hungry wolves approached the skinniest man on the field in an attempt to bring him to ground. The wolves failed in bringing Heeno to the deck however succeeded in the dislocation of his right thumb.  Pete was issued with the task of putting the thumb back in place, which was to no avail, cutting his day short and sending him on his way to A&E. The boys tell me that the remainder of the game was hard fought with late hits from Cheese, left and right hooks from Big C and Camper and of course Tom McKays weekly antics. Sadly the Wolfpack dotted down under the sticks late in the piece, converted and came away with a two point win over the competition favourites.

Swede of the week: Jew O’Conner

2 points: Rabbitt (your try was nice but unsure of the self-appointment)

1 point:  Sam Maynard (consistently offering a high level of code. humble)

Pre season training – Friday 19 April – Boogie Nights

With so much hype going into the season of 2013, pre season training was highly anticipated by many to say the least. A few three stars were had to loosen up before ripping into a courty. Mid way into introductions a red-eyed fisher decided to make an appearance which consequently seen him neck three Hagen’s and take a seat on the bus. After a few speed rounds things went side ways and both heeno and rabb could only be found on the bus meaning that Weiner was left to take the reigns. Fuck. His reign however was short lived and the only notable moments were that Weiner fucked his brothers missus and Camper didn’t fuck the airhostess. Teef successfully fended of three milk bottle challenges including a dead heat and remains the proud holder of this prestigious title. All and all it was a rip snorter of a night with plenty of laughs had by all. Big ups to Gweg for the diesel delivery and the rest of the boys who came up from the Gill for the weekend.

Game 1 vs OPOHO ASSASINS           22 all draw

A 10 am kick off seen a number of foggy headed Verses opt for a sleep in over footy, however we still had a solid 20 plus turn out to officially open the 25th year of Verses domination. We had drawn the least physical team in the comp – Knox, or as they call themselves, ‘The Opoho Assains.’ Along with their traditional ‘Tony Brown’ call, numerous pleas were made by the Assasins to ‘calm down’ as its ‘only social rugby’. They were in for a long day. As expected fitness levels were low and blood-alcohol levels were high making for some sloppy footy. Camper put in a stella performance which got us all wondering why Skelty ever sacked him from the Royal Blue early in the season of 08, maybe something to do with the fact that he was still eligible for North Town u48’s at the time. Tom ‘HotHead’ Mckay showed glimpses of his eastern southland upbringing putting in several bone crunchers including a lazy arm that almost had the Assassin’s in tears. Other performances worthy of note included Droz’s counter attack, Camper’s mate Knowlesy piss-bowl their winger before dotting down in the corner and JP’s solid defence. Not the worst open to the season. Good to see everyone at the Roaring Pen post match for a tin of Speights, will try for a sizzler also this week.

Swede of The Week: Camper Harvey

2 Points:  Teef – for his physical presence and retaining the milk bottle

1 Point: Gweg, Knowlesy

LVP:  Tom Mckay – for numerous fuck ups that ended in tries for the other team
