Operation: Knightfall, a century of blogs (Expect the unexpected, #100blogs)

Well, today on Easter Monday must be history, it's my 100th blog (My 1st blog was 5 years in 2012 & my 50th was last year) so here it is:

Kia Ora (Hello, Bonjour, Ciao, Salaam Aleikum, Hej, Ni Hao) ladies & gentlemen, boys & girls, welcome to my 100th blog so let’s get on to it, I was born in Raetihi on the 7th of June 1991 so my name is Whetu Ngapo & I have been living in Whanganui here since 2007 (I lived at 43 Rimu Street until 2013 where I moved to 31 Kings Avenue until December 2013 where I had to live on my own although Dad would sometimes help me at Alma Road until April 2014 where I lived in my flat at 28 Koromiko Road for nearly 3 years so I ended up here living at Poppa’s (I know he was born the day after Independence day in America which is the 5th of July, 1947) in 15A Kells Avenue (Pops (He is the son of the late Nana Minnie (1921 - 2016) & Jim & brother of Uncles Wal & the late Andrew & Aunty Kathryn (Who was born on the 23rd of January in 1960 when Pops was about 12 but I know that she has 3 children such as Gemma, Huia & Ben Blain & 2 grandchildren such as Gemma’s daughter Rosalie (She was born in 2011) & Huia’s son on the way) lived here since 1989 in when he became Principal at Aramoho School until he had to retire early in 2011) in Aramoho) after living in my hometown during my childhood, Raetihi for 16 years (The reason why I moved here to Whanganui was to be close with my grandparents (They were married from April 1967 or 68 until Nan’s passing on the 6th of January last year & has 3 children such as Aunty Tania, Cathey Middeplaats (Although Nan & Pops looked after Cathey until the Middelplaats family adopted her & has 3 children (A daughter from a previous relationship born on the 5^th of April in 1994 & both sons born in 2006 & 2008 with her current partner who has been living for 11 years, John Mitchell (Not the All Black coach) such as my cousins Paige Williams, Nico & Luca Mitchell) & Dad) so I am a self confessed blogger since 2012 & my 1st blog was about Rules Of The Game Of Thrones so that blog is about Aunty Tania (My Dad’s sister & Nan & Poppa’s daughter that I did not know who was born on the 10th of June, 1968 (The year before my Dad’s because he was born on the 5th of June (2 days before mine), 1969) because she’s living in Canada since 2004 after spending 3 years in Australia & 5 years in France by learning the language & she has been with Rejean (Born on the last day of March in 1962), the good old French Canadian dude known as Giuseppe Pedersen since 2011) coming here to New Zealand to attend Poppa’s QSM award (Although Pops along with Uncle Bryan & Dad met Sir Graham Henry, the former All Black coach & had a photo with him in which Ted agreed) by having lunch at Stellar & last year, I reached my 50th so I did my 50th blog about the best bits from 2012 – 2016 (Including the best blogs of the year that I did with the most views such as Jansen's Birthday Blog (London 2012 Olympics Report) in 2012, Rush Movie Review (+ Other News Including the All Black & Indycar Spirit) in 2013, #2014FIFAWorldCupFinal, #GermanyVsArgentina: THE REVIEW in 2014, Cricket World Cup 2015 Shorts (My 1st blog of MMXV) & Breaking Dawn: the 2015 Rugby World Cup preview in 2015 & of course Euro 2016 & All Blacks vs Wales preview last year) so here I am, doing my 100th blog, up close & personal (And I once had a brother named Wiremu who passed away 3 months old in June 1993 & I also have a half-brother named Jansen who was born on August 9th, 2003 (The day before Ben Blain’s birthday because Ben was born in 1988 (Although his sisters Gemma & Huia were born in both 1980 on the 17th of October & 1986 on the 20th of September respectively) but I mainly listen to rock music such as alternative rock & heavy metal (I used to listen to electronic dance music as a kid such as house or techno) & my favourite food is not only pasta because it has been my favourite for nearly 17 years but I like pizza, stir fry & sushi & my 2 favourite sports are rugby (Our national game here unofficially) & motorsport especially Formula 1.

And so onto only 1 blog that I posted this year with the most pageviews or should I say audience by celebrating the best bits of this year but this one is about the start of the brand new 2017 Super Rugby season as well as Kathryn's 3rd visit to Whanganui this year & Diana Kent's 1st which is titled Swerve City/The Lost Art Of Keeping A Secret: #SuperBoomBoom, A Start To Another Super Rugby Season (+ Kathryn Ngapo's 3rd visit to Whanganui & Diana Kent's 1st in 2017)

Well, the 2017 Super Rugby season has begun (Replacing #SuperBangBang for 2017 is #SuperBoomBoom), well...IT HAS BEGUN! (As the evil sorcerer Shang Tsung would say in the 1995 movie Mortal Kombat (Featuring characters such as Liu Kang (The protagonist/main hero from China who is a Shaolin monk), Johnny Cage (The world famous Hollywood actor who happens to be my favourite Mortal Kombat character), Raiden (The thunder god who doesn't fight or brawl in the movie), Sonya Blade (United States Special Forces soldier), Kitana (The Outworld princess), Kano (The Aussie criminal from down under), Scorpion (The yellow ninja & one of the iconic ninjas whose real name is Hanzo Hasashi who always says: GET OVER HERE!), Sub-Zero (The blue ninja of Bi-Han, the original who can freeze), Reptile (The green ninja) & of course, last but not least...Goro (The Shokan prince & reigning champion of Mortal Kombat) Well, not only that the Blues thrashed or should I say demolished the Rebels in the opener at AAMI Park in Melbourne as centre Rieko Ioane (Akira's brother) getting a hat trick of tries as they reach the half-century mark by winning the game 56 - 18 so here's the news report about that epic but most exciting game:

A hat-trick from Rieko Ioane gave the Blues a perfect start to their Super Rugby campaign as they beat the Rebels 56-18 at AAMI Park.

The youngster was outstanding on Thursday, with this result a message to the rest of the competition that the Blues will be a threat in 2017.

Other than Ioane, the visitors' try scorers were Pauliasi Manu, Matt Duffie, Augustine Pulu and Melani Nanai. Ihaia West kicked 16 points.

The Rebels were forced to make a late tweak to their backline as Mitch Inman was ruled out, meaning that Tom English moved to centre and Jonah Placid came onto the wing. The Blues meanwhile were hoping their new faces, such as halfback Pulu, capitalised on the disruption.

It was all the Blues early on as they were patient in possession and eventually moved 3-0 in front as pivot West slotted from 45 metres.

The Rebels struck back though on seven minutes as youngster Jack Maddock showed a calmness to put the ball back inside to halfback Nic Stirzaker who went over for the score, with the conversion from first five eighth Jackson Garden-Bachop making it a 7-3 lead to the home franchise.

That was cut to a point on 18 minutes when several picks for the line from the Blues ended with loosehead Manu getting the ball down.

The Rebels missed the chance to extend the lead to four soon after as Garden-Bachop was off-target, one of three missed kicks in the half. But he would have been a happy fly-half when West was charged down close to his line and the Rebels 10 grounded to make it 12-8 to the hosts.

From then on though the Blues dominated as first nice handling from left to right sent wing Duffie over for a converted try and after West and Reece Hodge traded penalties, a stray pass from Rebels flanker Jordy Reid near halfway led to Ioane sprinting over for a 25-15 buffer.

Hodge was again on target to open the scoring in the second-half, cutting the gap to seven points, but then the Blues onslaught went into full swing as halfback Pulu raced over from 40 metres out to make it 32-18 before Ioane claimed his second from distance for 39-18.

The Rebels were on the ropes and in their desperation were being picked off at will as a kick ahead saw wing Nanai the next to cross for the Blues on 58 minutes before number eight Akira Ioane set up his brother Rieko for a hat-trick. That was his last act to cap a fine game.

At 53-18 the match was starting to fizzle out as it neared its final 10 minutes, with a yellow card for replacement Rene Ranger giving the Rebels some welcome field position. But a loose line-out, which wasn't their first of the night, summed up a poor start to the season for the Rebels, with centre Piers Francis knocking over a late penalty soon after to put the seal on what was an outstanding victory for the Blues.

And it was yesterday that the rampant Chiefs have finally beaten the Highlanders after losing 6 straight games to open up their campaign at Forsyth Barr Stadium with a news report which is less exciting than the Rebels Vs Blues clash:

The Chiefs got their Super Rugby campaign off to a fine start when they claimed a desrved 24-15 victory over the Highlanders in Dunedin on Friday.

Strong defence and ability to takes their limited chances sees Chiefs win 24-15 in Dunedin 24-15 against the error-strewn Highlanders.

The result is a momentous one for the men from Hamilton as it ends a 6 match losing streak against the Highlanders.

With this being 2 New Zealand teams, it is no surprise that it was a thrilling affair as both sides ran the ball from all areas of the field although the Chiefs made better use of their chances and their execution inside the Highlanders' 22 was particularly impressive.

Although the Highlanders were competitive in the tight exchanges, they were unable to contain the Chiefs' ability to move the ball with pace and the visitors eventually outscored them by three tries to none.

The Highlanders drew first blood courtesy of a Lima Sopoaga penalty inside the 1st 5 minutes game but the came alive in the 10th minute when James Lowe went over for the 1st try.

This after he gathered a wayward pass from Aaron Smith close to the halfway line and the flyer showed great strength and determination to shrug off a couple of challengers before dotting down under the posts.

Aaron Cruden added the easy extras and the Chiefs did not increase their lead with Lowe again the chief protagonist when he intercepted a Waisake Naholo offload just outside the home side's 22 before racing away to score his 2nd try.

Cruden, once again, slotted the conversion which meant the Chiefs led 14-0 after the 1st quarter but the Highlanders didn't take that lying down and were soon camped inside the visitors' 22.

The 2015 champions thought they had opened their account in the 23rd minute when Naholo gathered a Lima Sopoaga crossfield kick before crossing the whitewash but his effort was disallowed when the Television Match Official (TMO) ruled that he had knocked the ball on in the process.

The hosts were dealt a massive blow on the hour-mark when their captain and fullback Ben Smith was forced to leave the field when he banged his head on the ground after competing for a high ball with Damian McKenzie.

The Highlanders continued to attack but the Chiefs stood firm in defence and 2 Sopoaga penalties, late in the half, was the home side's only reward before the interval.

The Chiefs continued to attack and were rewarded 2 minutes after the restart when Hika Elliot crossed for their 3rd try after combining brilliantly with Tawera Kerr-Barlow at a lineout inside the Highlanders.

That score caught the Highlanders by surprise and although they upped the ante on attack they couldn't breach the Chiefs' try-line.

Sopoaga added two further penalties midway through the half but Cruden secured the win for the visitors when he landed a three-pointer from the kicking tee in the 68th minute.

And the Reds had a 2 point win over the Sharks in a hard fought victory after a close quarters battle at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane.

And yesterday Kathryn arrived here for her 3rd visit (She was with her English partner Ken Branch during her 1st visit this year then with her son Ben Blain during her 2nd) the same day as we moved the gnomes (I told her about the honorary Jedi of Huia thinking she's no longer a Kiwi girl (Although my cousin Paige Williams (Cathey Middelplaats's daughter & sister of brothers Nico & Luca Mitchell (Although both Nico & Luca are kinda cute as Kathryn told me) is because I told her that she's a New Zealand girl with a Welsh surname like Thomas or Jones, Jenkins, Evans & Davies) along with Gemma so she revealed that she's pregnant so she must be having a son on the way (And Rosalie (Who is exactly Gemma's daughter so Gemma was with Hamish) is going to have a cousin & I was like ''What? Huia's going to have a baby boy. Are you serious?'' And I told Dad that his cousin is pregnant) so we had dinner which is salmon pasta because me & Pops were watching the rugby when the Highlanders played the Chiefs so we had dessert during the game so Pops went for the Highlanders so I was backing the Chiefs to win because I live in the North Island so the Chiefs ended up winning so I had a chat with Kathryn before I went to bed but this morning I saw Dad taking my stuff in & we were having breakfast just moments before we went to the market & looked at a house we looked for Kathryn (Although she's a good woman or should I say wahine compared to Aunty Tania because not only she's good looking) to live moments before we headed back to my new home which is 15A Kells Avenue (Well I have been living in my flat for nearly 3 years or so after spending nearly 25 years & 8 months with my Dad so I am hoping to get my life back on track by redeeming myself) so we had cold meat, cheese & salad with croutons for lunch & after lunch, I dried dishes & watered the plants & now doing my blog so I have been doing my usual gimmick listening to rock music (Such as Bush, Audiovent, Queens Of The Stone Age, Deftones, 3 Doors Down, Nickelback, Faith No More, The White Stripes, Lenny Kravitz (He's a black (Or should I say African American) rockstar along with William DuVall of Alice In Chains, Living Color & the late Jimi Hendrix), Blink-182, Linkin Park (My Malaysian friend Sophie's favourite band), Red Hot Chili Peppers (Used to be my favourite band, because now it's Breaking Benjamin), Foo Fighters (Used to be my favourite band also), Shihad & of course Pearl Jam because I listen 20 songs a day so I am getting used to it) while blogging.

So that is my 10th blog of the year 2017 (MMXVII) & my 90th overall (Only 10 to go until I reach 100).

P.S. And my beloved Hurricanes (Although video blogger Shannon 'Shaaanxo' Harris is a self proclaimed Hurricanes fan who appeared in the #SuperBoomBoom ad) opened up our title defence with a demolition or should I say complete thrashing against the Sunwolves at the Prince Chichibu Memorial Stadium over in Tokyo so here's the news report about the most other exciting but epic game played compared to the Rebels-Blues one:

The defending champion Hurricanes put on a master class at Prince Chichibu Stadium in Tokyo. The Sunwolves could not cope with the precision, pace and physicality of the visiors who scored 13 tries to win 83-17.

The defending champions were full value for their win as the Sunwolves had no answer to their power and strength and the men from Wellington eventually outscored their hapless hosts by 13 tries to three.

It was a one-sided performance from the Hurricanes who made a very big statement, to their rivals for the title, on where they are planning to go in 2017.

The Sunwolves were under the cosh for the full 80 minutes and although they tried gallantly throughout, they could not match the intensity levels and execution of their more illustrious opponents.

It was one-way traffic from the opening whistle and the Hurricanes scored four unanswered tries inside the opening quarter. Ardie Savea got two of those, the first coming in the sixth minute after his brother, Julian, laid the groundwork with a trademark in the build-up.

A minute later, Vince Aso - who was a late addition to the starting line-up after Cory Jane withdrew through injury at the captain's run - went over for a try after gathering his own chip kick down the right-hand touchline.

Savea's second try followed two minutes later before Ricky Riccitelli scored the champions' fourth try after running onto a pass from Ardie Savea at close quarters in the 13th minute.

Otere Black converted four of those tries which meant the Hurricanes were cruising with the score at 24-0 after 15 minutes.

The Hurricanes continued to dominate as the half progressed and TJ Perenara, Ngani Laumape and Julian Savea also crossed for tries before the break with Savea's effort the best of the lot.

The burly All Black gathered a cross-field kick from Black, just outside his 22, and bumped off two tacklers in trademark fashion and then outpaced the cover defence before diving over.

The Sunwolves' best moment of the opening half came in the 34th minute when Riaan Viljoen crossed for their opening try after gathering an inside pass from Kenki Fukuoka close to the visitors' try-line.

By half-time, the Hurricanes were cruising with the score at 45-5 and they continued to dominate in the second half. The one-sided nature continued during the opening 20 minutes of the half with Blade Thomson, Michael Fatialofa (2), Aso, Brad Shields and Wes Goosen all getting over for deserved tries.

Shields' effort in the 49th minute seemed to knock the wind out of the Sunwolves' sails as he intercepted a Shota Horie pass close to his try-line before running the length of the to score his five-pointer.

And by the time Goosen crossed for his try in the 60th minute, the Hurricanes were in total control with the score at 83-5. But to their credit, the Sunwolves did not surrender and Shokei Kin and Willie Britz crossed for consolation tries which added some respectability to the final score.

And the Crusaders battled the Brumbies to begin their 2017 campaign as Izzy Dagg celebrated his 100th Super Rugby appearance in a tight but intense win (Although they finally won in their Super Rugby opener since they beat the Blues in 2012 after losses to the Blues in 2013, the Chiefs in both 2014 & 16 & the Rebels in 2015) with a news report which is less exciting than the Sunwolves-Hurricanes one:

The Crusaders made a winning start to their Super Rugby campaign when they claimed a hard-fought 17-13 triumph over the Brumbies in Christchurch on Saturday.

The home side dominated for large periods and should have won this match by a bigger margin, but the Brumbies delivered a competitive effort.

The Canberra-based side will be wondering what could have been, however, as they had chances to win the game in the second half but failed to pull it off.

Both sides showed great intent on attack although the Crusaders made better use of their opportunities and outscored their visitors by three tries to one.

The seven-time champions made a bright start and after a prolonged period of attack in which they took the ball through 14 phases in the build-up, Israel Dagg delivered a perfectly-weighted long pass to Seta Tamanivalu, who burst through a tackle before crossing for the opening try in the fourth minute.

Richie Mo'unga added the extras but the Brumbies reduced the deficit five minutes later when Wharenui Hawera opened their account via a penalty, after Joe Moody was blown up for an indiscretion at a ruck.

The Crusaders had a bulk of the possession for the rest of the half although they had little to show for their dominance as the Brumbies managed to soak up the pressure with a solid defensive effort.

The visitors suffered a setback midway through the half, however, when James Dargaville was yellow carded for taking out Israel Dagg in an aerial challenge.

The Crusaders showed great patience on attack for the next ten minutes and were rewarded in the 34th minute when Whetu Douglas crossed for their second try after gathering a superb offload from Dagg close to the Brumbies' try-line.

The Brumbies were fastest out of the blocks in the second half and after the ball went through several pairs of hands shortly after the restart, Rory Arnold went over for an easy five-pointer in the left-hand corner.

Hawera slotted the conversion from close to the touchline which meant the Brumbies were back in this game with the score at 12-10 to the home side.

The home side didn't panic though and struck back in the 56th minute when Pete Samu went over for their third try from a dominant scrum by the hosts close to the Brumbies' try-line.

Mo'unga missed with the conversion attempt and the result was in the balance for the rest of the half as the Brumbies upped the ante on attack.

And when Hawera added a three-pointer from the kicking tee in the 68th minute, there were some worried looks amongst the Crusaders supporters in the crowd.

The hosts had a chance to seal the win in the 74th minute when Mo'unga lined up a shot at goal, but his effort was a poor one and went wide of the uprights.

The Brumbies tried desperately to secure the result at the end, but the Crusaders managed to see the threat out and held on for the win.

And in other Super Rugby news as the Waratahs edge the Western Force by 6 points as well as last season's runners up the Lions came back from the dead by downing the Cheetahs with a Rohan Janse van Rensburg double & the Jaguares of Argentina scraped past the Southern Kings by pulling clear in the 2nd half & the Stormers produced an impressive 1st half to end round 1 on a high with a win against the Bulls.

So that was Round 1 of the 2017 Super Rugby season and here are the matches for Round 2:

Force Vs Reds: nib Stadium, Perth
Chiefs Vs Blues: FMG Stadium Waikato, Hamilton
Hurricanes Vs Rebels: Westpac Stadium, Wellington
Highlanders Vs Crusaders: Forsyth Barr Stadium, Dunedin
Brumbies Vs Sharks, GIO Stadium, Canberra
Sunwolves Vs Kings: National Stadium, Singapore
Lions Vs Waratahs: Emirates Airline Park, Johannesburg
Stormers Vs Jaguares: DHL Newlands, Cape Town
& the Cheetahs Vs Bulls at Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein to end Round 2 of Super Rugby 2017.

And on Sunday that we went to 25 Somme Parade for breakfast this morning with Marjorie, Pops & his sister Aunty Kathryn & I had hot cakes which is kind nice & had a moccha there just before Kathryn left to return to Auckland with her son's car (Although Ben looks a little bit like Obi-Wan Kenobi, but he is gigantic) because she might be returning to work tomorrow at the Piratahi childcare over in Waiheke Island but trust me, Kathryn will be back, I promise & the force will be with her, always.

And today we had breakfast out there before heading of Ginza bargains as well as the recycling centre because it was getting full & when we got back, my American colleague from Palatine in Illnois...Diana Kent was here because I saw her rental car & I had a great chat to her before we had wraps for lunch then we headed downtown to go to Warehouse Stationary then back to the recycling because I'd forgot to put something in before we headed to The Warehouse to get some stuff before we headed back to my new home which is 15A Kells Avenue & I played that best Formula 1 game ever which is F1 2016 on my PS4 then we had nibbles while we watched the news & had burgers for dinner before we had a great dessert & right now I am updating my blog as of tonight.

And finally in the Six Nations as Scotland turn the tables on Wales for the 1st time in 10 years with a win as Scotland ended Wales' record 9-match winning streak over Scotland, by winning for the first time since their 21–9 victory in 2007 & Ireland get their 1st win against France in 2 years since France beat Ireland last year as Henry Chavancy made his test debut & of course what about England because they remain unbeaten under coach Eddie Jones as they go 3 from 3, defeating Italy at Twickenham as Leonardo Ghiraldini was named in Italy's started XV, but was ruled out before kick off due to injury then Owen Farrell (England) earned his 50th England cap as well as Mike Brown won his sixteenth consecutive Six Nations match, a championship record in the six-team format & Michele Campagnaro scored Italy's 900th try in tests.
