ITM Cup Fixtures 2011
Kiwipie
Written by Kiwi Pie   
Thursday, 10 February 2011

The fixtures are out for NPC 2011 and note that there are a mish-mash of playing days hidden in there. We play 2 games on a Tuesday night but have no Friday game! Home games in blue.

We play two grudge games in Rotorua, the Battle of the Bays and the Battle of the Kaimais. Bay Park sees champions Canterbury, along with Wellington and North Harbour.

If you fancy away day trips, Invercargill is our only trek south, Auckland and Counties are a day trip and Northland might be tricky on a Thursday night followed by a Tuesday night in New Plymouth! The longest gap between games is 6 days - twice we play a game 3 days after including Auckland on a Saturday afternoon followed by Canterbury at 6pm on a Tuesday night! I presume they are not expecting anyone to actually turn up to a game this year!!

Bay of Plenty Times
Written by Jamie Troughton   
Monday, 31 January 2011

What do Hori BOP's bum, a vuvuzela trumpet and a Bayfair shoplifter have in common?

Not entirely what you'd expect - but they've all been part of the rich tapestry of Jeremy Curragh's tenure as chief executive of Bay of Plenty Rugby.

Curragh announced his departure this week, heading back into the commercial world in March to begin as boss of online retailer Natureshop.

Colin Bourke Injured
Kiwipie
Written by Kiwi Pie   
Thursday, 09 December 2010

bourke_baabaasColin Bourke played for the Barbarians against South Africa in England at the weekend but went off injured early on with a suspected dislocated shoulder. It was a great honour for Colin to be selected as an uncapped player after a stellar season for the Bay and hopefully this injury doesn't mean his 2011 season for the Chiefs is already over.

The photo shows Colin after the game celebrating the Barbaas victory by 26-20. For the game, he wore odd socks, one representing Bay of Plenty and the other representing Mount Maunganui.
