2011 XP PROPERTY RUGBY FEST // Wed, 28 Sep 11
The weekend of September 24th and 25th saw over 450 rugby players descend on the “Island of the Gods” for the 2011 version of the Xclusive Property Bali Rugby Fest. But this was a tournament very different to most others when the news came through that a Nedland’s player, Mike Denton, had passed away on the early hours of Saturday morning due to medical complications. Mark Bedham, Nedland’s team manager, announced the news to the shocked tournament committee and withdrew his team from the event in a show of respect to both his players and Mr Denton. Mr Bedham went on to explain that Mike was a “rugby fanatic” and that the last he would want was for his team mates to go home “with their tails between their legs”. With that in mind a tentative arrangement was made for a memorial game to be played on the Sunday between the Nedland’s boys and a Barbarians selection. The sad news quickly spread throughout the teams in attendance and black armbands were adorned in honor of a fallen brother. Team managers from all sides met and it was agreed the tournament would go on in Mike’s honour. The draw was then re-scheduled and play got underway soon after.
