UK TOUR LOG 2009 – BY BILL ESAU Well, all good things must come to an end and here we are on our last day of the tour in London. Yesterday we went to Madame Tussauds and to the Tower of London. Today we have some free time before the coach arrives to take us to Heathrow at 6:00pm tonight. Everything has gone very smoothly with barely a hiccup over the entire time in England. We have all had lots of laughs, seen and done some fascinating things and the boys have got on particularly well as a group. Of course an undertaking like this only happens with the help of many people. Here on the English side I would l like to thank again everyone I have already mentioned at the schools and clubs we visited, you were terrific. It was a tough tour for the team, five games in two weeks where the players learned a lot about English conditions and style of play. We didn’t win all our games but we came here to play the best, not easy beats. In particular though, we couldn’t have done it without the support of Andy Harland from the RFL and Toby and Will from Outwood Grange Academy. At home Jeni Doherty and all the parents worked tirelessly to get this show on the road, it wouldn’t have happened without you. On tour Nathan and all the Parents with us have been terrific, taking care of business behind the scenes and at the pointy end of proceedings. Lastly to the boys, you have been a great group to share this experience with, friendly happy and easy going. Your families should be proud of you, I know Nathan, I and everyone associated with the Mackay High Rugby League Academy is as well. Now we can start thinking about the next tour 2011. |

BY BILL E ON TOUR On Friday we left St Helens for the coach drive to London. It’s always disappointing to leave the north where people are so friendly and welcoming. On the way down we stopped for a look around the historic Stratford Upon Avon, Shakespeare’s birth place. We arrived at our hotel in Earls Court later in the afternoon and many of the boys took the opportunity for an early night, to catch up on a bit of sleep. On Saturday we went for an amphibious duck ride on the streets of London and the Thames. Then, on what was a beautiful sunny day, we took a ride on the London Eye. The rest of the day was spent shopping and sight seeing. On Sunday we left the hotel for the trip out to the Elmsbridge Eagles ground in Surrey to play the Harlequins under 16 academy team. For the first time on tour our boys managed to get some combination working and with a little of the luck that had deserted them in previous games, managed to run in a string of early tries to put the home team under pressure from the kick-off. The final score was 38 – 6 with tries to Daniel Matsen (3), Ben Carter, Jace Sainsbury, Corben Duffy and Kelton Dorante. We would like to thank the Harlequins’ Colin Baker and u/16 coach James Lawson for organising the game. At the end of the game Colin presented us with a Harlequins jersey and we presented Coach Lawson and their best player centre Mike McMeacan with academy clothing. 321’S FOR THE PLAYER OF THE TOUR MSHS V’S OUTWOOD GRANGE ACADEMY 3 – Dylan Bell MSHS V’S CASTLEFORD HIGH 3 – Taylor Ridland MSHS V’S HALTON SCHOOLS 3 – Dylan Bell MSHS V’S PORTICO VINE ARLFC 2 – Dylan Bell MSHS V’S HARLEQUINSU/16 ACADEMY 3 – Ryan Ridland2 - Daniel Matsen 1 – Taylor Ridland |

 WHAT A PERFORMANCE by the Keebra Park boys in this years Arrive alive Cup Grand Final, congratulations to the entire squad, it can't be easy travelling to Sydney to play just one game of footy. Keebra Park came out from the siren firing and it was not long before winger Henere Wells crossed for the first points of this years Arrive alive Cup Grand Final. Skipper Jordan Kahu converted to give his side a quick 6 - 0 lead. Keebra Park gave the Matraville boys no time and charged forward thier big forwards with huge results. The ball found its way to rampaging forward Benny Murdoch who ran, pushed and barged his way from teh 30 meter line to dive over for the second Keebra try of the AaC Grand Final. Keebra's Skipper Jordan Kahu is deadly accurate from anywhere converted to give the Keebra Boys a sensational 12 - 0 lead at the half time break. MORE & HEAPS of ACTION FOTO'S SOON and over the weekend. |

| TOUR UPDATE Wednesday – Thursday 24.09.09 Story & Photo's By : BILL ESAU on Tour On Wednesday we travelled to the seaside town of Blackpool to spend the day at the Pleasure Beach amusement park. There are a number of ridiculously large and radical roller coaster and other rides, the boy’s got unlimited ride passes for the day. Several of the team finished the day with large stuffed toy prizes that will never fit onto the plane to get home. To commemorate his new haircut Daniel Matsen commissioned a painted and framed characture to bring home with him. We had a great day, getting back to St Helens at 7pm. Thursday is another game day and our tough program has left a few of the boys sore and a little jaded. We spent the morning in Manchester at the Trafford Centre an amazing upmarket shopping centre, reputedly the shopping spot haunted by Posh when the Beckhams lived in the area. The fixtures and appointments of the centre are something to see and obviously have an effect on people, we had only been there a few minutes and Doylee was coughing up 400 quid for a Vivienne Westwood handbag for wife Tracey. The boys enjoyed some quiet time ten pin bowling and looking around the centre until we returned to St Helens to get ready for the game. We arrived at Saints Knowsley Road Stadium to find the club in a high state of readiness for the game. The club were pulling out all the stops for the game; there were quite a number of security and club personal in attendance. The club were charging admission and by game time a crowd of several hundred spectators were in the stands. A big group of our supporters travelled over from Wakefield and there were a large number of interested locals there as well. Our boys were terrific in the end only going down by two points to the St Helens club champions Portico Vine ARLFC 30 - 28. Portico U/16’s are a tough but very disciplined team, they played the game in the right spirit and are a credit to their coach Bernard Dwyer. There was none of the cheep shotting that tends to spoil games as a spectacle and the vocal crowd was kept buzzing for the entire contest. Josh Geaghan and Daniel ‘Mr T’ Matson became particular crowd favourites. The longer the match progressed the stronger our boys looked and came back at the home team with an opportunity to snatch the game at the death that just fell short. With the crowd involved, the game had a real finals atmosphere to it that kept all the spectators including many of the St Helens coaching staff enthralled. David Jorgensen, Ryan Ridland each scored a try and Daniel Matsen scored two going close on several other occasions. After the game St Helens RLFC staff coach Mike Rush presented Taylor Ridland with club gear as their choice for best player and the Portico coaches selected Dylan Bell as their man of the match. At the after match function we passed on academy gear to Bernard and our preferred Portico player England rake Lewis Foster. The boys will never forget their game at Knowsley Road. 321’s for the player of the tour MSHS V’s Outwood Grange Academy 3 – Dylan Bell 2 - Corben Duffy 1 – Rhys Barton MSHS V’s Castleford High 3 – Taylor Ridland 2 – Daniel Matsen 1 - Ben Carter MSHS V’s Halton Schools 3 – Dylan Bell 2 – Taylor Ridland 1 - Daniel Matsen MSHS V’s Portico Vine ARLFC 2 – Dylan Bell 2 – Taylor Ridland 1 - David Jorgensen 1 – Daniel Matsen |

Story & Photo's By : BILL ESAU Sunday – Monday – Tuesday 22.09.09 Weather for St Helens, UK Current: Partly Cloudy - Wind: E at 0 km/h Thu - 16°C | 11°C Our coach picked us up at 9am in the Outwood carpark. There were heart rending scenes as the boys had to tear themselves away from their new friends. There was quite a crowd of Outwood students and teachers, parents and supporters of Mackay High to see the boys off. On our way to our accommodation in St Helens we stopped in at the historic city of York to have a look around the Sunday markets and attractions like the partially restored Clifford’s Tower constructed by William Conqueror in the tenth century and dominating the city centre. We arrived in our accommodation ‘Lindisfarne’ at St Cuthbert’s school in St Helens late in the afternoon. Monday started with an extended training session on the St Cuthbert’s oval. At about ten o’clock we left the school for a shopping expedition to the bustling centre of Liverpool. On the way home we had time to stop in at the drive through Knowsley Safari Park to see a variety of wildlife including tigers, lions, baboons and rhinoceros. The animals were very healthy and active; the antics of the baboons as they climbed all over cars tearing off windscreen wiper blades were a particular hit. Somehow Taylor Ridland managed to sleep through the whole thing. Monday was also the day that team started rock, paper scissors tournaments with the loser receiving a special haircut. Tuesday is another game day, our third. In the morning we had a look around St Helens city centre before making our way to Wade Deacon High in Widnes for a 4pm kick off. The game today was a terrific honour for us today; the first game to be played on their rugby league field located inside their new synthetic running track and athletics facility. We played a selection of players from a number of local schools including Wade Deacon High, Saints Peter & Paul Catholic College and The Heath. As the game started it soon became apparent that we were well off the pace. The Widnes team were a slick unit with good pace out wide and a small but enthusiastic pack. Although we scored the first try through busy prop Daniel Matsen we were steadily starved of ball with only about four set completions for the match. Consistent disrespect for the ball and indiscipline cruelled any chance we might have had of success. Once again we had an incident where players from the other team’s bench entered the field to join in a mêlée. This has happened twice in two games and highlights the need for bench players to be strictly supervised and players to remain disciplined in this regard. This is especially important in schoolboy rugby league where higher standards of behaviour and levels of sportsmanship should be insisted on. The referee, who adjudicated fairly throughout the match, judged that the scuffle started following a punch thrown by one of our players and awarded the penalty to Halton. The referee warned the home team’s captain that the entire bench would be red carded if they were to re enter the field of play illegally again. Following the game at the post match function our team was welcomed by Carlton Bramwell from our hosts Wade Deacon High and Eddie Jones from Halton Council, who presented us with a council plaque. We presented Carlton, their successful coach Ian Critchley, and their player of the match, cheeky lock Dom Speakman with academy apparel. The Halton lads were clearly the better team on the day and we are looking forward to a chance to play them again in the future. |

Travelled to Castleford High this morning where the team was taken on a tour of the school before getting ready for what was most likely the toughest game of the tour. Castleford High are the English school champions in this age group and play the game just the way we like it, hard and fast. As expected the match was an epic struggle with both teams at each others throats for the entirety. The first try was scored by our Taylor Ridland, captain, hooker and eventually our team’s player of the match. At half time the home team led 10 – 6 after one try scored in the corner and an intercept try under the sticks. Mackay High scored early in the second half to lead by two points but after another half of punishing defense Castleford High ran in a converted try to close out the contest 16 – 12. There was a bit of argy-bargy late in the contest with the home team’s number 5 sent off for running on to the field off the bench to join a bit of push and shove, and one of their props was carded for fighting. Earlier in the half Corben Duffy’s mouth got him a 10 minute stint in the bin. In the wash-up there were no hard feelings from the Mackay team, Castleford High are a quality team and their school and coach Lee Homes should be proud of them. There were some rumblings about the refereeing after the game but I thought he was evenhanded in what was a demanding match to handle. The player of the match was Castleford High’s centre Shaun Pick for a standout performance in a fine team effort. After the game and a little shopping on the way home we raced back to Wakefield to get ready for our short trip to Leeds for the Rhinos – and Hull KR semifinal game. About half the boys made it down to Leeds with us for the big game to use tickets kindly donated by Leeds RLFC and the English RFL, organized for us by the RFL’s Andy Harland who also supplied us with some tickets for the Wakefield ‘Wildcats’ Catalan ‘Dragons’ match on Saturday night. The Leeds game was an amazing experience with a great atmosphere and fantastic seats to enjoy it from. Leeds won in fine style delighting the delirious home fans. There were no activities organized for Saturday but a few of us met at the Stanley ‘Rangers’ game, at the Wakefield ‘Wildcats’ game and at a BBQ at the Padgets place where the Ahern’s are staying. |

MACKAY HIGH PUT UP THE BRAVE FIGHT  Mackay High have been beaten in their second tour match by Castleford High School in a tough encounter. Castleford High School are a fordmidable outfit and as discussed previously are the England National Champions. Bill Esau will be sending his match report soon, so in the mean time here are a few of the notes i took down while talk to Bill on the phone tonite. "It was a good, tough game, Castleford just got up at the end of the game, we had our chances, we dropped too much ball." Mackay High's Man of the Match Talor Ridland scored the first try of the match & was tough though out the game. MACKAY SHS Man of the Match : Talor Ridland (#4 - center) CASTLEFORD HS Man of the Match : Shaun Pick (#9 - hooker) The boys are behaving them selves and doing their school and country proud with "exemplary" conduct, the English people have been terrific and in particular the staff from Outwood Grange College, a couple of them have been showing the touring party around. The weather has been nice, around 19 -20 degrees, we have had no rain as yet, (knock on wood) We all look forward to your match report Bill and some foto's from Castleford High. Just one more thing, have u rang your mum yet Everett?? |

UK Tour Log 2009 – by Bill Esau Wednesday - Thursday 17.09.09 Wakefield weather - 15°C | °F - Current: Mostly Cloudy - Wind: NE - Humidity: 62% Thursday - 16°C | 5°C All the boys arrived from their first night with their billets in good spirits. The students at OGC are paying them a lot of attention with large groups congregating every time they move around the school. First up we drove down to Huddersfield to visit the George Hotel, the birth place of Rugby League. Local legend and curator of the memorabilia collection Sam Morton showed us around this fascinating museum. The magnificent display is a must see for all rugby league fans and even better if the extraordinarily knowledgeable Sam is your guide. We returned to Outwood Grange College to get ready for the 3pm game. A bracing north-easterly greeted us on the OGC field but both teams soon warmed up in a spirited display characterised by some vigorous defence. Ryan Ridland had the honour of scoring the first try on tour, about ten minutes into the contest, which was duly converted by Matt Ahern. Mackay High finished the game with a score of 36-6 over their hosts who performed much better in the game than the final score suggests. The young Outwood team, although clearly outgunned by the imposing Mackay team, stuck to their task manfully throughout the game only letting their opponents get onto a roll after some effort errors in the second half. For the visitors, man of the match Dylan Bell scored twice and Matt Ahern, Ben ‘Zohan’ Carter, Daniel ‘Backwoodsman’ Matsen, Corben Duffy and Ryan Ridland each crossed the line. Also solid for Mackay High were Rhys Barton and James Howard. After the game at dinner in the OGC cafeteria Toby Rutter presented us with a signed football from the home team. Mackay High presented Outward Grange College with a tour jersey and teachers Will Pratt, Toby Rutter and the RFL’s Andy Harland with academy gear for their hard work in support of the touring party during our week in Wakefield. OGC’s prop Liam Grimmitt was selected by Coach Doyle as our opponent’s player of the match for his wholehearted performance; he received a tour polo shirt. On Thursday morning we visited the impressive National Coal Mining Museum This was an amazing experience that all the boys thoroughly enjoyed and an excursion which will continue on future tours. Following the mine visit we completed a recovery session at the indoor pool in a local Health complex then moving on to a shopping expedition at the Xscape adventure and retail development. The boys promised an early night to get ready for the Castleford High game at 10am on Friday, possibly the toughed test will face this tour. |

UK TOUR LOG 2009 – BY BILL ESAU -Monday – Tuesday 15.09.09 Left Mackay on Monday morning at 6:45am and had a smooth trip with Qantas all the way through Brisbane and Singapore until a bit of a hairy landing at Heathrow. Bit of nervous laughter after that one but all the boys were happy to be here. All the team were great on the planes, giving the flight entertainment system a good workout. Evert Hanson slept 12 of the 13 hours from Singapore to London then most of the way on the 4 hour bus ride to Wakefield, the bloke is a champion sleeper. Arrived at Outwood Grange College at about 12 noon where some of the parents and staff were waiting for us. We had some lunch in their canteen where the presence of the team caused much excitement among the students. After Lunch the boy’s had a light training run on the playing field to run out a few cobwebs. At 3:00 the boys were introduced to their host brothers and were released into the community. Thanks very much to the Milner, Glover, Carr, Grimmett, Hartness, Magretton, Kittrick, Moss, Conway, Middleton, Consterdine, Kilday, Judge and Burman families for looking after our lads while they are in Wakefield this week. We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to all the staff of Outwood Grange College but in particular OGC teachers Toby Rutter and Will Pratt, and the RFL’s Andy Harland and who are tirelessly organising and assisting us with, what is shaping up to be, a great week in Wakefield. On Wednesday we will visit the historic and memorabilia laden George Hotel, the birthplace of Rugby League and play OGC at 3pm. While in Yorkshire we are also visiting a preserved coal mine and display, playing Castleford High, going indoor snow boarding and attending super league playoffs at Leeds RLFC and with the Wildcats in Wakefield the Mackay State High School Rugby League Academy is living the dream. |

Story & Photo's By : Mackay SHSRLA / Bill ESAU Next Monday a squad of twenty, 15 and 16 year old Mackay State High School Rugby League Academy players will travel to England for a series of games against school, club and academy teams from London (Harlequins Academy), Wakefield (Outwood Grange College), Castleford (Castleford High), Widnes (Wade Deacon High) and St Helens (Portico Panthers). At the end of the tour two Mackay State High School Academy players, Matthew Ahern and Clinton Hewitt will stay on with the families of boys their families, and Mackay High hosted in 2008. Academy coach Nathan Doyle said that this excursion almost certainly represents a once in a lifetime opportunity for these students to tour and play the game they love in an international setting. As part of fund raising activities for this, the second biennial tour to England, a Sportsman’s Dinner was held at the Southern Suburbs Leagues Club and the Academy hosted and catered for the 2009 U/15 Queensland state championships in May. Academy Supporters Committee President Jeni Doherty has lauded the hard work that the touring students and their parents have completed through the numerous fund raising opportunities that have been undertaken to support this exciting initiative. Mrs Doherty also praised the generous financial support of the many local businesses that have made this tour possible with their munificence. (WOW, now that word is a ripper, did u make it up Mr. Esau?) As well as a shadowing group of parents and family on the tour the boys will be accompanied by Mackay High teachers Bill Esau and Nathan Doyle. Rugby League Academy players embarking on the tour include representatives from several of Mackay’s Rugby League clubs. South’s RLFC has a strong representation including Dylan Bell, Ben Carter, Josh Doherty, Kelton Dorante, Corben and Edan Duffy, Chase Edgerton, James Howard, Daniel Matsen and Mitchell Petersen. West’s players Rhys Barton, Josh Geaghan, Evert Hansson, Ian Read, Ryan and Taylor Ridland join Sarina guns Matt Ahern and David Jorgensen, along with Magpie’s duo Clinton Hewitt and James Wylie to complete the squad. The tour departs Mackay on Monday morning the 14th and is away for 17 days. Along with the five tour games to be played against Under 16 teams from a variety Rugby League strongholds the touring party will enjoy a number of activities. While in the North they will visit historic sites in Yorkshire, enjoy indoor snow-boarding in Castleford, travel to amusement parks in Blackpool and attend several Super-league finals matches. In London the boys will ride the London Eye, take a guided tour of the Tower of London, motor up the Thames in an amphibious vehicle and visit Madam Tussauds. The touring group’s base in London will be the Ibis Hotel located in Earls Court, the unofficial home of expatriate Australians living in London. The bulk of the touring group returns home to Mackay on the 30th of September. |

Jo Cronin - Mackay Hi to all, So you lost a game. So what. sounds like it was a good exciting tough game except for the rubbish stuff. What you need to remember is that you sre there for a good time. So my advice is to relax and enjoy yourselves, do your best and play as a team. Lap up the experiences you are having and the friends you are making. One day some of you may well be over there playing for Australia or playing Super League so lay the foundations for your future, so remember that and leave a good impression behind you. Above all, have a great time. Ben's Aunty Jo |

Tony Ahern - 4737 Great game today, the boys played as hard as the ref would let them and still only lost by 4 points. Parents in Australia should be proud of your boys as the are representing MSHS with excellent behaviour and all getting along real well. Ohh the English girls are chasing them everywhere we go. |

shaun pick - WF10 4AF just what to congradulate your school on a fantastic game and was an honour to play against such quality players so good luck for the rest of your tour. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Bill Marchant - Castleford WF10 5LU I was at the game today. Commiserations on losing, but the game could have gone either way. Though the Cas team are mostly 9 months younger than your lads, they are 3 times English Champions so the teams were very evenly matched. Your best players were ball playing stand off, scooting hooker and big prop with the beard. Enjoy the rest of the tour, good luck in your games. Hope you stuff the two Lancashire (Cheshire/Merseyside)teams. I hope Cas reciprocate with a tour to you next year. |
