ImageThe Manawatu Rugby Union has today announced it has signed former Wellington Head Coach and Hurricanes Assistant Coach Dave Rennie as Head Coach. Former Manawatu resident and Hurricanes manager John Knowles was named as his management assistant for the new Air New Zealand Cup competition. Rennie will take up his role this Sunday with Knowles on board immediately.

Chief Executive Hadyn Smith said Davie Rennie and John Knowles both have proven track records and the experience they bring will give the Manawatu team a good chance of being competitive in 2006.

“We are excited Dave and John have made a commitment to Manawatu and the Turbos are keen to get going and build a competitive environment in the lead up to the first Air New Zealand Cup match on July 29.

Dave Rennie said he was pretty keen to get involved when first approached a week ago.

The Big Wet affects all Rugby

Tuesday, 20 June 2006

MRFUThe big wet affected all club rugby games in the Manawatu this weekend - with most games reduced to a slog in the muddy paddocks. All lower grade Rugby was cancelled as grounds were closed across the province.

Varsity played out at the unfamilier Ashhurst Park, below the spinning Turbines on the Saddle Road, and encountered a muddy water-logged pitch, but put in a sterling first half effort to effectively win the game by half-time.

As the winter solstice nears, we are all awaiting some better weather for the start of the second half of this round. As it stands with such a wet winter, we are quickly running out of grounds to play rugby on.
