At the recent Weary Dunlop Rugby lunch attended by over 500 guests- including more than 30 MURFC members, it was very pleasing to see Rick Boykett be recognised for his outstanding contribution to community rugby in Victoria over many years. Rick was presented the VRU Distinguished Service Award by VRU President Gary Gray and Gary’s introductory remarks follow.
“Rick Boykett has been an active and key committee member of the Melbourne University Rugby Club for the past 23 years.”
“Over this time he has been in the forefront of all the important Club issues and developments. During most of this time he has played, captained and coached as well as taken on whatever administrative role is the most critical at the time.”
“He is the volunteer every amateur club needs and few are lucky enough to have, combining enthusiasm and commitment with great administrative ability. He was recently made a life member of the Club; only the fifth person to be recognized this way in the hundred years of the Club’s existence.”
Thanks for your tremendous and ongoing support of Melbourne Uni Rugby!
Now that the season and our Centenary year is coming to a close, we would love it if you could celebrate it in style at the end of Season Annual Dinner and Awards night.

To RSVP your attendance and book your seats please contact Peter Hone via email (chone@bigpond.net.au) or call him on 9509 0426 by Thursday 18th June
To most Australians, Mark Loane is the formidable former Wallaby. Once described as “the closest thing to a folk hero Queensland has seen”, this captain of state and country was “The Train Without A Station”, Queensland’s marauding No 8.
