  • The Skitzo  ( 8 items )

  • Fan in the Stand  ( 39 items )
    This mysterious character has a column in the Bay of Plenty Times every Wednesday. He may or may not be linked to the BoP Mafia.

  • Bay of Plenty Times  ( 121 items )
    Need some professional writing after being subjected to the ranting and raving of the Mafia rank and file? Well you could be in luck. Here's the latest from the Bay of Plenty Times. Now, make sure you subscribe if you live in the Western Bay or you'll be getting a visit from an angry, hungry Don HoriBOP around tea time...

  • Don Hori BOP  ( 3 items )
    Don of the Mafia and pie-eater extraordinaire, HoriBOP is our leader. He gives the orders and the rest of us follow. If he says "Jump!", we say "How high?". Known for his personal acts of bravery, he doesn’t just talk the talk, he walks the walk as well. Did he not kidnap the Harbour Master in 2004? We rest our case.

  • Kiwipie  ( 47 items )
    A favourite of HoriBOP (due to having the word Pie in his name), KiwiPie is an outsider brought in to look after Tauranga as so many of the Mafia have left over the years. Has BabyPie in tow, groomed to take over in future years...

  • Donsteppa  ( 19 items )
    The under-Don who controls the day-to-day workings of the BOP Mafia is Donsteppa. He tries to away from the publicity (lately unsuccessfully), preferring to live in the shadowy underworld where he can work his contacts and pull all the strings. He is currently operational deep in enemy territory trying to arrange a Steamers takeover of the Chiefs...

  • JP  ( 11 items )
    Capo JP has recently been dragged kicking and screaming from Rotorua and is now residing somewhere behind enemy lines. Irony and sarcasm are his weapons and he isn’t afraid to use them.

  • Bay Imports  ( 8 items )
    After attaining the rank of Capo, Bay Imports was sent to run the Australian division when successive Ranfurly Shield agonies became too much for him. Bay Imports continues to spread the BOP word amongst the unwashed heathens (once he has explained that it is Rugby and not League or Aussie Rules.)...

  • Drago  ( 4 items )
    Like all good Mafia, Drago has tentacles in all sorts of organisations to ensure that the BOP mafia view and wants are heeded at the top level. Modus operandi - bribery and corruption.  Has a view that all cowbells should be handed in at the Kaimais for melting down to contribute to the new Baypark roof.

  • Baron Silas Greenback  ( 5 items )
    Mafia Capo and possessor of the death ray, the Baron is a man so feared in New Zealand that he has gone to England to recruit more members. Tee-shirt sales indicate he is having some success with his methods.

  • Auckland Warlord  ( 3 items )
    Raised to the level of Mafia Capo for good deeds in infiltrating the sprawling filth that is Auckland, the Warlord gains extra gold stars for landing the tough role of University Student and braving dangerous assignments such as endless keg-parties and plentiful women.

  • BartMan  ( 2 items )
    Despite being a genuine Swampy, Bart was used in the formative times of the Mafia to build our infrastructure. Unfortunately he now knows too much and isn't allowed back out… you can read regular work from Bart at www.thesilverfern.com

  • The Quake  ( 1 items )
