Мърфис Мисфитс ще празнува своята 10 годишнина тази събота!

За целта най-веселите ръгбисти на България организират звезден ръгби мач и, разбира се, парти в техния втори дом – ирландския пъб ДжейДжей Мърфис на Кърниградска.

Ветерани и стари величия на родното ръгби от всички краища на страната ще се обеденят в Дрийм тийм и ще премерят сили срещу рожденниците, след което се очаква всички обилно и както подобава да полеят веселия празник. Като гости се очаква да пристигнат играчи от Габрово, Перник, Варна и други софийски отбори, а специално чак от Сенегал за повода пътува известният бивш президент и основател на клуба Мъри Те Хуки.

Всички приятели и любители на ръгби са поканени да се насладят на специалния мач или по-късно просто да споделят парче торта и една бира (или повече?) с момчетата в зелено и черно.

Какво?

Turkey Bowl 2011

Turkey Bowl 2011 will be held on Saturday, 3 of December at the Benkovski stadium.
The Misfits we will meet the Sofia Bears for a friendly game of touch rugby and flag football.
We will have a BBQ and lots of beers around the field, supporters are welcome as always!

Време е за една малко по-различна игра! На 26ти ноември, събота, от 13:00 ч. на стадиона в кв. Бенковски, точно преди тазгодишния ни Pub Crawl, ще се съберем да поиграем Ръгби 15, но с едно условие! Условието е, че играчите трябва да се облекат с по-необичайни дрехи по време на мача – като типични джентълмени, с костюм, сако, риза, панталон, фрак и тн. или като горди дами, с полички, роклички, корсети, жартиери и тн. Така че преровете скрина си (или този на жена си) и да си спретнем един много забавен ден!

It’s time for one unusual game of rugby! On November 26, Saturday at 13:00h at Benkovski stadium, just  before our annual Pub Crawl, will gather to play Rugby 15, but with one condition! The condition is that players must be dresses with unusual clothes during the game – as typical gentlemen with a suit jacket, shirt, pants, tails and so on. or proud ladies with skirts, dresses, corsets, suspenders and so on. So explore your dresser (or your wife’s ) and let’s have a very funny day!

Rugby Is The Source

Only two weeks after we visit London for our 2011 Tour, our friends from Yantra RC will host us for a 15′s game on 15th of October, Saturday.

Like we did last year, we will travel by bus, leaving Sofia on Saturday morning, we will stay overnight and will return to Sofia on Sunday.

If you plan to come please write a comment below – we need to know the numbers for our trip as soon as possible.

PS. Friends/girlfriends are more than welcome as long as they support us (buying us beer)!

Our last game with Yantra was during the winter of 2010 | Последният ни мач с Янтра беше през зимата на 2010 г.

Време е за ежегодната ни визита до Габрово където всички толкова много се забавляваме!

Само две седмици след като посетим Лондон по време на Турне 2011, приятелите ни от РК Янтра ще ни приемат за мач по Ръгби 15  в събота, 15-ти Октомври.

Също като миналата година, ще пътуваме с автобус. Тръгваме от София в събота сутрин, оставаме в Габрово за през нощта и се прибираме обратно към София в неделя.

Ако мислите да се включите в пътуването пишете коментар по-долу – трябва да знаем колко души сме възможно най-скоро.

ПС. Приятели/приятелки са повече от добре дошли стига да ни подкрепят (купувайки ни бира)!

Teams before the game

As always, our team was a mix of young and old guys. Niki Hinov, currently studying in Austria, was on a holiday in Sofia and helped the team with a solid performance. Their first ever appearances for the team made Brian from Canada – starting as a hooker and Alex, a local hero, who went into play during the second half as a fullback.

... showing us great offloading skills.

Despite the fact we don’t have any more 15′s games planned until September, we’ll still meet every week during the summer.  There will be touch rugby every Saturday at 11:30 at the Benkovski stadium. If you need any more rugby you can always join some of us every Monday at the Borisova gradina at 7 pm for some park rugby. Also every Wednesday there is a contact practice at the Benkovski stadium – 6:30 pm.

Where's the relay?

Final score was 12:36

Rugby is the Source!

The tournament will officially start at 13:00 this Saturday, 7th of May at National Sports Academy.

If you want to take part in the team and show everybody what it means to be a proud Misfit, the meeting for players is scheduled for 12:00. There will be also a Kids rugby session starting at 10:30 also at NSA.

And right after the Sofia Sevens, when everyone is tired and just needs to rest and enjoy a beer after the long weekend, the Misfits and our newest friends from Iron Fortress Smederevo we will turn the weekend into a great rugby party having a XV’s rugby game.

The Murphy’s Misfits vs. Iron Fortress game will be played at Murrayfield right after the official end of the Sevens tournament, kick off a bit after 5 pm.

Then it was time to get the players outfitted for the game against the visiting team. The Referee(Rueben Mills) for the game did a great job keeping the pace of the game going. Also a big Thank You to Harry who came out early and helped with the marking of the field prior to the game.

It was a great turnout of Misfits for the game with 29 players that all enjoyed some time on the field. It was great to see the mix of players on the field with some new and old experienced Misfits playing together again. There was also a good turnout of supporters enjoying the game and visiting as well. Two players were contributing factors to the Leigh Layabouts team win. Konstantin Dimitrov and Stefan Popov had the enjoyment of being on the plus side of the field with the final score being 22-20 for the Layabouts. It was a full field game with almost everybody having the chance to get their hands on the ball and do some running. The Misfits had a range of players from age 15 to 40+ on the field and several countries represented. The mix of people on the Misfits team is a great thing to see with the game of rugby bringing them all together. The experienced players supporting the younger enthusiastic players to show the way to play the game and be a part of the team.

At least some of the time….. note to rookies… don’t do everything the veterans do.

Mark, We have machines to roll the pitch.

Don't high tackle the little guy

Don't low tackle the big guy

Save the hugs for the girls

No ballet with the flowers

The younger players can use their speed (or fear) to run around the opposition.

Or you can run into and over the opponent but always finish the tackle.

This is My Ball

I'll take that.

To the ground.

Protect the ball.

Teamwork

Reach for new heights.

Enjoy the game

Thank You to the Leigh Layabouts for a great game and to everyone who helped out and made the day a success. The third half was enjoyed by all at J.J.Murphy’s Pub, Thanks to Branko for hosting.

Vassil who had his first try in Rugby also experienced shooting the boot.

Preparing the shot.

Vassil shooting the boot.

Siberian blast, hard ground and amazingly entertaining running rugby would be mere understatement of today’s game.
Greatest credit goes to Barbarians for putting together this second event on and off the pitch – great turnout, refereeing, BBQ and jokes (Stefan A.), beers (Sasho Petrov)!
Bad whether and poor conditions could not stop the two teams: Lions (yellow strip, captained by Ivo), and Haiduti (blacks, captained by Kaloyan) reinforced by some elite Berkotisa and NSA players, from displaying the best aspects of the Game – great skills, continuity and scoring spectacular tries.
It was great to see Teo’s (ex-JJ barkeeper) comeback with a vengeance, being instrumental in both attack and defense.
We were so sorry to hear that Stefan Doitchev couldn’t not join the party today (heavily missed on No. 8 ) and we hope to see him back alive and kicking as he is sooner than he thinks.
Ivats (Lions) and Roman Para (Haiduti) deservedly became MOM.

On 27th of November, this Satuday, a decisive play-off between the teams of Romania and Uruguay will be played and the team to win it will play in New Zealand next year. As you can see from the video above, the first game, played in Montevideo, Uruguay, finished 21:21, so now both team have a great chance to qualify for the Rugby World Cup 2011 finals.

You can follow the game live online here (using myp2p.eu, stations will appear on the page from 11:00 on the day of the event).

На 27-ми Ноември, тази събота, ще бъде изигран решителен плейоф между отборите на Румъния и Уругвай, а победителят ще получи правото да играе в Нова Зеландия догодина. Както може да видите във видеото по-горе, първият мач, игран в Монтевидео, Уругвай, завърши при резултат 21:21, и сега и двата отбора имат големи шансове да продължат към финалите през 2011.
