Point Chevalier wins the Fox Memorial Shield

The season began with a northern regional age group representative competition for under 16's (Shaun Johnson Shield) and under 18's (Dean Bell Cup). The finals were held on April 2 at Mount Smart Stadium in Auckland. Tāmaki ki te Tonga (South) defeated Tāmaki ki te Raki (North) 20 points to 12 to win the U16 Shaun Johnson Shield.

Following this match the New Zealand Women's premiership final was played between Akarana Falcons and Counties-Manukau Stingrays, with Akarana winning their first title in 11 years when they won 24–12.

Northcote lifts the Sharman Cup.

The Fox Memorial Shield competition was split into 2 sections with 9 teams in section 1 and 10 teams in section 2. This was the first time in many years that all teams were technically eligible to win the premier senior men's title. It did however mean that there were a large number of very lopsided matches. Section 1 however was relatively competitive. In section 2 Glenora Bears and Otahuhu Leopards finished in the top 2 positions and secured home semi finals which they both won to advance to the semi-finals where they met each other with Glenora winning 28–16. In section 1 Point Chevalier Pirates and Howick Hornets met in their semi final with Point Chevalier winning 24–12. In the grand final on August 6, Point Chevalier defeated Glenora before a crowd of 1,000 at Mt Smart Stadium 1 by 14 points to 12. This was the 6th time Point Chevalier had won the Fox Memorial Shield in their history with the previous wins being in 1953, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2018. The match doubled as the Stormont Shield final so Point Chevalier had an additional trophy to add to the cabinet. The held on to the Roope Rooster Trophy also after going undefeated in home challenges. Northcote Tigers won the Sharman Cup when they defeated Pakuranga Jaguars 32–28 in the curtain-raiser to the Fox Memorial final at Mt Smart on August 6. this was their 4th time winning the Sharman Cup after previous wins in 1979, 2003, and 2007. Point Chevalier also won the reserve grade title after beating Te Atatu Roosters 18–6 in the Fox Premier firsts final on August 5, while Bay Roskill Vikings defeated Otara Scorpions 22–14 in the Fox Championship Premier firsts final.

The Senior B, Ray Cranch Cup was won by Pukekohe Pythons who beat Takahiwai Northern (Northern Pine) 25–24 in the grand final. Richmond Tokes beat East Coast Bays in the consolation final 36–14.

In the lower grades Otara won the Under 18 boys, Marist won the Under 16 Boys and Mangere East the Under 16 Girls grades. The Under 15 Boys competition was won by Papatoetoe, while the Under 14 Boys was won by Mt Albert, and the Under 14 Girls was won by Mangere East. Ellerslie won the Under 13 Boys competition.

Fox Memorial

[edit]

The Fox Memorial competition for senior teams for 2022 has been shortened due to covid. It will be played over 13 weekends following a later start date than usual (May 7). There will be 2 sections with 9 teams in section 1 and 10 teams in section 2 with the sections organised based on finishing positions in the senior competitions from the 2021 season. The top 6 teams will progress to the Fox Memorial Premiership after 9 rounds and play in a series of knockout games. The top qualifying team from each section will then compete for the Fox Memorial Shield. Teams who finish in the 7–9 and 7–10 positions will playoff for the Sharman Cup.[3] Waitemata Seagulls were originally in section 1 but withdrew a week prior to the commencement of the competition. Ponsonby Ponies was fielding a premier grade side for the first time in 3 seasons though it was in conjunction with the Glenfield Greyhounds. Their first grade side was the Ponsonby club, while the reserve grade side was from the Glenfield club.

The 2 sections were as follows:

After 9 rounds the 2 teams which gained first round byes from section 1 were Point Chevalier and Howick, while in section 2 Glenora and Otahuhu did the same. In the preliminary finals of the playoffs Mt Albert, Bay Roskill, Te Atatu, and Richmond secured wins to advance to what were effectively quarter final matches. In the quarter-final matches Pt Chevalier defeated Mt Albert, Howick defeated Bay Roskill, Glenora defeated Te Atatu, and Otahuhu defeated Richmond, meaning all four home sides won with no upsets. The semi finals were played at Mt Smart #2 on July 30 with the Glenora defeating Otahuhu 26-18 and the Pt Chevalier beating Howick 24 t0 12.

Pt Chevalier won a tightly contested grand final on August 6 at Mt Smart Stadium #1 by 14 points to 12 to win their 6th ever Fox Memorial title.

In the live streamed match Te Atatu defeated Otahuhu for the first time in many years 42–22.[22] For Te Atatu, their hooker off the bench, Khalan Clyde, formerly a Northern Sword U18 representative who had attended Westlake Boys High School in 2021 scored his second try of the year. Te Atatu's starting hooker Tuteauru Maipi scored a double which gave him 6 for the season to this point. Otahuhu hooker Phoenix Hunt scored a try in the second half. He was a former Otahuhu College player who had spent time with the South Sydney Rabbitohs NYC team before coming back to Auckland and helping Papakura win the Fox title in 2016 before then returning to his junior Otahuhu club with his brother Jamel Hunt.

Round 5

[edit]
Papatoetoe on attack against Te Atatu at Kohuora Park in Papatoetoe, with Jordyn Makiha about to receive a pass

Philip Kingi played his 150th game for Glenora in their match with Marist and he kicked a conversion in their 22–12 win. Papatoetoe suffered another heavy defeat, losing to Te Atatu by the unusual score of 94 to 1. Papatoetoe's standoff Jordyn Makiha slotted a drop goal midway through the second half to make the score 70–1. He attempted another on full time but it was partially charged down and the match finished shortly after. For Te Atatu, Kahil Johnson scored 4 tries and kicked 2 goals, while Api Pēwhairangi scored 1 try and kicked 10 conversions from 12 attempts. Hikoirangi Paki scored 3 tries on debut. Nicholas Malalilo scored a hat trick in Richmond's 56–0 win over Papakura with Hawaiiki Annandale converting 6 of their 11 tries. Pakuranga secured their second win of the season when late tries to Boss Rolleston took them from 22 to 20 down to a 28–22 win. Earlier Manu Tukia had grabbed a hat trick while Timor Reese Williams had done the same for Ponsonby.[42] The live stream match saw Pt Chevalier maintain their unbeaten record with a comfortable 42–16 win over Mt Albert at Fowld's Park with Lewis Soosemea and Saula Solomona both scoring 2 tries each.[43] The win meant that Pt Chevalier retained the Lani Latoa Memorial Cup. Latoa had played for both clubs but tragically died in 1995 during a game at Carlaw Park between North Harbour Sea Eagles and the Auckland Warriors reserves. He fell on the ball and broke his windpipe.[44] Sione Feao and Fiohiva Siale Faingaa also scored doubles in Otahuhu's 38–16 win over Mangere East at Walter Massey Park.

Round 6

[edit]
Kouma Samson receiving the Dennis Williams Cup from Dennis Williams
Hikoirangi Paki scoring Te Atatu's sole try

The most anticipated match of round 6 was the match between Te Atatu and Glenora at Jack Colvin Park in Te Atatu for the Denis Williams Cup. New Zealand international Dennis Williams played the majority of his career with Te Atatu but did enjoy a successful season with Glenora as well. Unfortunately it was not as tightly fought as expected and Glenora got on top early and controlled the match to win 32–6. Dennis Williams presented the trophy named in his honour to the Glenora captain Kouma Samson. Pt Chevalier beat Northcote easily at Walker Park 52 to 16 with Matthew Whyte scoring a hat trick and Brody Tamarua scoring twice to go along with 4 conversions. The live streamed match was Marist against Pakuranga which saw Marist win 50–12 with Sagele Palaamo scoring 3 tries and Doux Kauhiva kicking 6 conversions for the winners. Otahuhu beat Ponsonby 68–8 with William Stowers scoring 2 tries and kicking 7 goals for a personal tally of 22 points. Papakura scored their first points in 5 games with a converted try in a 42–6 loss to Mangere East. Brody Tamarua scored twice and kicked 4 conversions in Pt Chevalier's 52–16 win over Northcote. For Mt Albert in their 34–30 win over Bay Roskill, Eiden Ackland scored 2 tries and kicked 5 goals.

Round 9

[edit]

In the final round of matches before the playoffs there were several matches that had repercussions for the final placings of teams. In Section 1 in the live streamed match Northcote beat Manukau 18 to 4. Kevin Locke joined the Northcote side for the match after returning from France earlier in the week. They finished the season with 6 competition points and a for and against percentage of 76.58% versus Otara who had a percentage of 79.66% meaning they went through in 6th place. Otara's 10 point win over Manurewa proving crucial.[86] Pt Chevalier visited Paparoa Park and thrashed the local side 50–20 though both teams were secure in first and second place already. Mt Albert and Bay Roskill leapfrogged Manukau into 3rd and 4th respectively courtesy of a 60–8 win over Hibiscus Coast and two points for the bye in the case of Bay Roskill.

In Section 2 Te Atatu secured 3rd position with a gutsy 26–18 win over Richmond. Playing into a strong westerly wind blowing straight down the field Richmond played strongly and led 12–10 until a late intercept by second rower John Suli who raced 90 metres to score gave the home side a 16–12 lead at the break. Playing into the wind in the second half the Roosters were clinical, controlling possession and field position to earn a home playoff match the following week. Marist took care of Mangere East to finish 5th, tied with Richmond on 12 competitions points, just one percentage point behind Richmond (243.28% vs 242.17%). The margin was even tighter to find the final playoff team. Pakuranga beat Papakura at Ti Rakau Park 54–18 but will be wishing they had scored just one more point at some stage in the season as Mangere East's 46–12 loss to Marist meant they finished with a for and against percentage of 65.43% which shaded Pakuranga's 65.19%. With Marist's win they held on to the Roy Chan Cup.

Fox Premiership preliminary finals

[edit]
Mangere East on attack v Te Atatu in the first round of playoff matches

The first week of finals saw Pt Chevalier, Howick, Glenora, and Otahuhu have byes by virtue of finishing in the top 2 in their respective sections. The live stream match was played between Mt Albert and Otara. It was commentated by Dale Husband and Richie Barnett.[97] Mt Albert won the match 36–18 after pushing on from an 18–10 lead with Eiden Ackland scoring 3 tries and kicking 6 conversions from 6. Sebastian Su'a who had signed on for the Newcastle Knights for 2023 scored twice. Te Atatu had a relatively easy win over Mangere East who only had 1 reserve for much of the game due to "last-minute pull-outs, illness, and a high amount of injuries" according to their social media feed. Delaney Chaney-Puata scored a second half hat trick with Cook Island international Reece Joyce converting 9 tries in Api Pēwhairangi's absence through illness. Bay Roskill held off Manukau 28–22 in the only tight match of the weekend to advance to play Howick. Marist proved far too strong for Richmond at Grey Lynn Park, winning 34–0 with Kameli Vasu scoring twice in a 6 tries to nil victory. The match was streamed by Petes Filming.[98]

Fox Premiership quarter finals

[edit]
John Suli brought to ground by Phil Kingi in the Glenora-Te Atatu match at Harold Moody Field

All four home teams who came into their matches off a weeks rest won, with most margins being reasonably comfortable. The one exception was the Otahuhu win over Richmond by 20 points to 12. The score was 14–12 at halftime before a late try to Phoenix Hunt sealed the win. In the live streamed game Glenora jumped out to an early 12–0 lead, scoring 2 tries off the back of kicks. Akarana Falcons U20 full back Esom Ioka climbed to take a bomb and sprinted over and then Mosese Faeamani dived on a loose ball in the in goal to score a second. Another try to James Taumata threatened to end the game as a contest but a try to Te Atatu's Royden Gillett and conversion by Api Pēwhairangi made the half time score 16–6. The second half was relatively even but Glenora pushed on for a 26–12 win. Mt Albert made a spirited showing at Walker Park and the score was locked up at 18–18 at half time. Tevita Latu scored the go ahead try early in the second half and then Pt Chevalier came home strongly to win 40–22. Howick made fairly easy work of Bay Roskill, winning 44 points to 6 at Paparoa Park. The match was live streamed by Petes Filming.[103]

Fox Memorial Premiership grand final

[edit]
Matthew Whyte scoring to give Point Chevalier a 14–6 lead

Soape Kavaliku and Daniel Reuelu-Buchanan were both making their 100th appearance for the Glenora Bears. Point Chevalier Pirates won a closely fought Fox Memorial final 14–12 over the Glenora after taking a 10–6 lead into halftime. They scored a brilliant try after Pt Chevalier junior, Ollie Tuimavave (who brought up 50 games for the Pirates during the year) returned a kick over 50 metres before a centering grubber kick was gathered by Harley Maynard, who crashed over under the posts in the tackle of Kadiyae Ioka.[110] They stretched their lead 3 minutes later with a try to captain Francis Leger who stepped infield and dived across.

Chaz Brown crossing for Glenora to narrow the score to 10–4

Glenora narrowed the gap late in the first half with Chaz Brown beating Leger on the outside to cross, with Mose Esera converting. Point Chevalier pushed their lead back out to 8 early n the second half with a try in the left corner to Matthew Whyte. With 30 minutes remaining Glenora scored a converted try to Fatani Paea Manukia after a superb offload from former NZ Police rugby league representative, Chase Bernard. The conversion made the margin just 2 points. Despite coming close several times neither team could add further points and Pt Chevalier held out for the win. Brody Tamarua of Point Chevalier was awarded the Doug Price Memorial Medal for man of the match.[111] The match was live streamed on YouTube and also broadcast live on Sky Sport with Glen Larmer and Wade Brunsdon commentating.[112]

Fox Premier Firsts finals

[edit]

The Richmond - Mangere East preliminary final was streamed by Petes Filming.[206] In the Fox Premiership First quarter finals Te Atatu scored a last minute try, with the long serving Nick Lythgo's conversion sending the match into extra time. Lythgo kicked a penalty goal during extra time and Te Atatu hung on for a tense 36–34 win to maintain their 10–0 unbeaten record. Te Atatu had the right to play their match at Jack Colvin Park in Te Atatu due to being the higher qualifier but allowed the match to be played at Glenora's ground to allow the supporters to see both matches. Otahuhu beat Mangere East 56–16 to advance to meet Te Atatu in the section 2 playoff match. The young Manukau side beat Pt Chevalier 22–18 at Moyle Park and progressed to the section 1 final to play Howick who upset Mt Albert at Fowlds Park 30–20. In the semi-finals Te Atatu came from 4–10 down at halftime to lead 22–10 late before Otahuhu scored a consolation try. Pt Chevalier defeated the home side, Manukau, 26–20 to advance to the final. In the grand final Pt Chevalier took a 12–0 lead into halftime and extended it to 18–0 before Te Atatu scored a converted try late in the match with Pt Chevalier hanging on for an 18–6 victory, and in the process handing Te Atatu their only defeat of the season. The match was streamed on Petes Filming.[207]

Ray Cranch Senior B

[edit]

There were 12 teams competing in the Ray Cranch Senior B competition with Otara entering 2 sides. The Takahiwai rugby league club based in Ruakaka, Northland entered a senior side in the competition and they took out the minor premiership. The Avondale Wolves were affiliated to the Marist Saints club but had a long history stretching back several decades. The Waitemata Seagulls side was principally their senior side which had withdrawn from the Fox Memorial competition at the start of the year. The match between Waitemata and Richmond on May 28 was ruled "null and void" by the judiciary with neither side awarded any points.

Sky Sport Women's Premiership

[edit]
Tournament MVP Laishon Albert-Jones of Akarana kicking through the defensive line in the grand final at Mt Smart Stadium. Akarana won 24–12.

The Sky Sport Women's Premiership was played over 4 weeks in March and April. It featured 4 teams, including 2 from Auckland. These were the Akarana Falcons W and Counties-Manukau Stingrays W. The other teams from around New Zealand were Mid Central Vipers W (Taranaki, Manawatu, with added players from Wellington), and Canterbury W. The Akarana Falcons W were coached by Steve Buckingham, and Counties-Manukau Stingrays by Greg Selwyn, with James Sarah the assistant coach. The competition was scheduled at the same time as the NRLW competition for players who were unable to relocate to Australia due the covid travel restrictions. All matches were broadcast live on Sky Sports and were also uploaded to the YouTube site (links in references within the game details). The main commentator was Lavina Good with various co-commentators such as former Kiwi Fern Juliana Newman. Akarana Falcons won the competition, defeating Counties-Manukau Stingrays in the final 24–12 at Mount Smart Stadium on April 16. It was their first title in 11 efforts.[225] The following are the fixtures that the 2 Auckland based teams were involved in.

National Men's Championship

[edit]

The National Championship competition was a second-tier competition below the premiership. The winner of it would qualify to gain promotion to the Premiership for 2023. Auckland competed in it despite already having the Akarana Falcons and the Counties Manukau Stingrays already representing the area in the Premiership. The Auckland Vulcans is a side which represents the entire Auckland region but is selected after the Vulcans and Stingrays sides have been chosen and is for all intents and purposes a 'C' team. Nevertheless, due to the strength and depth of the Auckland competition they won the Championship comfortably and were promoted to join the Falcons and Stingrays in the premiership in 2023. They scored a total of 168 points across 4 games and conceded only 38, winning the final against Otago by 48 points to 12 at North Harbour Stadium in Albany on October 3.

Ruben Wiki Cup (U20)

[edit]
Akarana Falcons (U20) v South Island (U20) in the grand final

The Ruben Wiki Cup was played for by Akarana Falcons (North Shore and West Auckland), and Counties-Manukau Stingrays (East Auckland and South Auckland) from the Auckland region. The cup is named after former New Zealand rugby league player Ruben Wiki. He also played for the Otahuhu Leopards as a junior and played for the New Zealand Warriors. This was the second year that the competition had been run, though in its inaugural season of 2021 the teams representing the Auckland region were Auckland White and Auckland Blue. Akarana were coached by Henri Nicholas, while Counties Manukau were coached by Gary Kingi and Sean Witanga. The other teams competing were South Island Scorpions, Upper Central Vipers, and Waikato Mana. Akarana advanced to the final where they met the South Island and ran out convincing winners 34–16 at Mount Smart Stadium on April 16.
