Paperback. Condition: New. In November 2023, the Melbourne Rebels began a pre-season full of hope and optimism. With a deep roster and a strong, unifying 'Ubuntu' culture embedding itself within the franchise, there was high anticipation that the 2024 season - their 14th - would finally deliver success.Granted unprecedented insider access, writer Geoff Parkes set out to document the Rebels' season and to provide rugby followers with an insight into what makes a professional rugby franchise work.What followed was an extraordinary turn of events: the club tipped into voluntary administration early in 2024, now not only fighting to compete in one of global rugby's toughest elite competitions, but against a governing body intent on shutting it down.A Year in the Life and Death of the Melbourne Rebels is a raw, close-up account of a group of committed people who, despite being forced to operate under severe financial and emotional stress, strove to take their club to its first ever Super Rugby finals appearance.This book also provides a window into the administration of rugby in Australia; a troubling account of how a newly found determination to impose financial austerity clashed head on with rugby's traditional values of respect, comradeship, and a shared love of the game.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Set in the 1990s in New Zealand's King Country, The First Law of the Bush is the scintillating new rural noir from the author of When The Deep, Dark Bush Swallows You Whole.It's a beautiful day to be alive, Bill Dickerson thought, seconds before he tumbled from the viaduct onto the jagged rocks below . . .His awful death made national news. But still, one year on, Bill's widow Carol has received no explanation about what happened. Was it suicide? An accident? Maybe murder?So Carol hires lawyer Ryan Bradley in her fight for justice. Ryan has just returned to the remote town of Nashville after ten years away, so he's in no position to turn down work.Except the case seems hopeless from the start. Bill's employer is denying responsibility, Carol's friends are shunning her, and the only witnesses - co-workers Gav Coates and Wati Reynolds - can shed no light on the tragic fall. Even Senior Sergeant 'Stinger' Nettle is too busy turning a blind eye to Wati's illegal schemes to dig deeper into the death.But in small towns, nothing is quite what it seems. And for one Nashville resident the wrong question will come at a deadly price . . . Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
