Rugby Union for Dummies

Cain, Nick

Created especially for the Australian customer! A practical, useful and entertaining guide to the game of rugby union. Rugby Union For Dummies explains the aim of the game, the rules, what you wear, where you play, tactics, training, coaching and more. In plain English, this book delivers expert rugby knowledge to those who want to know more about the game, to those who want to play the game and to those who just want to watch the game.

For years journalists have been eyewitnesses to athletes—from the elite to downtrodden—chasing, achieving, or falling short of their dreams. They have observed, chronicled, and attempted to find the secrets to winning and losing. For some, sport may be a meaningless diversion. For most, it is life's most important punctuation mark. In this book, the formidable Fairfax stable of fine writing thoroughbreds explains why. Roy Masters explores the heart and soul of rugby league. Peter Roebuck and Malcolm Knox provide a fresh look at the confusion of cricket. Richard Hinds focuses on the moment which won the Sydney Swans an AFL premiership. Jacquelin Magnay exposes a grubby cycling world. Jessica Halloran reveals the tense father-daughter relationship in the Dokic tennis family. Michael Cockerill tussles with Harry Kewell. Max Presnell recalls when Amarillo Slim took on those at the City Tatts club. Greg Bearup dissects Khoder Nasser's world and Peter Stone puts Tiger Woods in his place. On the journey to find the reasons why sport is a religion, an obsession to so many, there's revelations, hilarity, triumphs, sadness, excitement, pathos, tribulation, controversy, moments of sheer stupidity, and episodes of bravery. Most importantly, like sport itself, this collection is always entertaining.

History

FITZSIMONS, Peter

Australia & Oceania

Allen& Unwin

Memorable, unpredictable and often hilarious, The Wrong ’Un is the inspirational story of a man who will never give the game away. At 45, George Bradley Hogg – cult hero of the Big Bash League, and in recent years a star of the international T20 circuit – is still in his prime. From his childhood cricket obsession in rural Western Australia to the day he donned the baggy green, Brad overcame numerous setbacks and bouts of self-doubt. During a seven-year gap between his first and second Test appearances, he turned his hand to a variety of jobs, most famously hitting the streets as a postie. Through persistence and enthusiasm he won his way back into the national team, and was twice part of Australia’s champion World Cup sides. After retiring prematurely in 2008, he returned with a bang in 2011, starring in the BBL and once again being selected for Australia. For the first time, Brad reveals his remarkable journey – from the bush to the MCG and beyond, and from crippling insecurity to hard-won self-acceptance – all with the self-deprecating humour and honesty for which he is known and loved.
