 Nasties Rugby Another night of top quality touch rugby has passed at Hitchcock Park, with the Nasties once again in fine form. Another new bloke made the effort last night, welcome to Pete Johnston.
Another positive by the Nasties was the doling out to Catholic care $1000 and a $1000 to Breast Cancer.
Justin Burgess deservedly walked away with The Golden Boyo award and has vowed never to drink "The Rockstar" again. The writer received a text message from Justin at 3:15am stating that he was "having the fastest shower ever"... Not sure what he meant, but there you go.
Also in fine touch was Mark Trollope, obviously he has been honing his handling skills somewhere.
The usual suspects all delivered, Sean P once again swapping his hands for feet, Mick Watts gliding through gaps that only he and a sheet of A4 paper turned sideways could fit through.
Tim Bentley reached new lows with his attire, Trooper has managed to make Richie Benaud seem exciting with his constant commentary this low was offset by his committment to chasing players down despite not having a cats chance in hell of catching them. Good effort Trooper.
The game itself was a one sided affair, Skip Mcgraths sorry bunch taking an absolute beating from the mercurial Boyo's team. Some wonderful angled runs and interplay saw the tries flowing from The Barrenjoey road end, prompting calls from Skip to end the game early so that his pain could stop.
Once again beer and merryment was had after the heat of battle. Onwards and Upwards with The Nasties. |
