Weekly Club Roundup - Saturday 8th August 2015
- Oriental Rongotai Football Club
- Wow – too big too strong too fast two wins! Our Colts defeated Wainui 49-5 at Mary Crowther to book a finals spot in the early game while in the main game on No.1 our Premier Reserves might be in trouble after an unauthorised demolition of Johnsonville and will host Wainui in the HD Morgan Cup final on No.1 on Saturday. Over at ASB the Netball girls had a two wins and a loss and with one round remaining some silverware looks a distinct possibility! Our juniors had some great results probably none better than our U8 Magpies who defeated West’s 55-35 despite playing the whole game with one less player. The U6s’ beat Wests’ 11-6, U9s’ beat Poneke 80-10 but the U10s’ went down in a tight one 35-25 to Wests’.

Weekly Club Roundup - Saturday 25th July 2015
- Oriental Rongotai Football Club
- Disappointed is probably an understatement after Saturday’s 2 point loss in the Jubilee Cup semifinal. It is hard to understand how a referee who does Super 15 has to do the touch while a younger one does one of the top games of the season. It is interesting that the Club Rugby website also referred to the standard of officiating. For those that returned to the clubrooms the look of disappointment on the players, coaches and management faces was chilling, not that they lost but how they lost. It has been a good season for a team who are constantly without a considerable number of players but produce great rugby every week – well-done guys.

Weekly Club Roundup - Saturday 25th April 2015 2015
- Oriental Rongotai Football Club
- Five in a row! Our Premiers five year unbeaten run over Poneke came within a couple of minutes of going south on Saturday but a man down they played with pace and composure to consolidate their top four placing and with games against the bottom three teams to come in the next four weeks a Jubilee Cup berth almost seems assured.

Jimmy Grbich Dinner - A Celebration of Rongotai Rugby
- Oriental Rongotai Football Club
- This year’s dinner is being held in association with The Rongotai College Old Boys Association and hosted by ourselves and our good friends at Poneke. For many of us, Rongotai College has provided a pathway from junior to senior rugby, and now 'The Next Generation' are experiencing the camaraderie and enjoyment of Rongotai Rugby. Whether it was turning out for the 5B's, u55kg or the 1st XV everyone has made a significant contribution to the values and culture that is Rongotai Rugby. Many stories to tell, not of ones own exploits on the field but of others who have worn the #GoldenFleece of the 'Coutts St Academy'. We do not tell our own stories but take great pride and enjoyment of telling stories of 'others' on field courage and brilliance.

Weekly Club Roundup - 1st September 2014 2014
- Oriental Rongotai Football Club
- What a day for our Junior teams on Saturday with two teams heading into the last round unbeaten. We have been following our top Junior side all season but our magnificent U8s’ well coached by Dave “Postie” Douglas were sitting on a perfect record and kept it that way in brilliant conditions at Polo and then following that a comprehensive win for our U13s’ against a North’s’ side that had probably tested our U13s’ more than any other team in there earlier clash at Elsdon Park in terrible conditions. Most of these U13 players are off to college next year with a good many going to Rongotai – under Dave Meaclem, Justin Grey and the rest of the Rugby team at RC these players will enjoy a new environment thanks to the partnership with our friends at Poneke – watch this space!

Weekly Clubroundup - 12th April
- Oriental Rongotai Football Club
- Wins, draws and losses! The results didn’t all go our way on Saturday but good wins by our Women’s and Premiers saw a happy crowd at Saturday’s aftermatch celebrations. A few changes in our team entries this year. Due to a lack of teams entering the there will be no Senior 3rd this year with only four clubs applying. The grade is no more and those teams that entered will now play in Reserve One. Despite a lot of effort the famous Ories J8s are no more after 34 seasons as father time has crept up on a number of the stalwarts. The good news is that those left will either play for The Pressies or in the new Reserve One team which is mainly the players from last season’s S3rds and a few recruits.

Denis 'Boots' Fisher
- Oriental Rongotai Football Club
- It is with deep sadness that we advise of the sudden passing of Club Legend and Life Member Denis "Boots" Fisher at his home in Island Bay last night. The phrase " A Good Club Man" is often bandied about but for the last 50 odd years it probably applied to Boots more than any other at this club.
