The Trades and Labour Hire Burleigh Bears and Wynnum Manly, will on Saturday be playing for the Adam Watene Memorial Trophy, donated kindly by the Burleigh Leagues Club. Adam Watene (Cook) played for both clubs and was a very popular figure particularly at the Bears. Adam played 24 games for the Gold Coast Vikings, 22 games for Wynnum Manly and 83 games for the Burleigh Bears in his QLD Cup career. Adam played in the Burleigh Bears 2004 QLD Cup Grand Final victory against East’s Tigers before moving to the UK to play with Castleford, Bradford and his last club Wakefield Trinity. Adam was a cult hero at Castleford and Wakefield due to his massive frame and bullock like runs.
Adam passed away suddenly last year over in the UK, at the age of 31 leaving behind his wife Moana and two children Arana and Ena. Adam still has many friends and relatives on the Gold Coast and many of them will be present at the game on Saturday along with Moana and the kids to present the trophy to the winning team
It is only fitting that both clubs play for the trophy in Adam's name and also know that his legacy will live on for many years to come.
Regards
Adrian Vowles

It all counts, if we can do the same over at Hudds then it will be worth it. |

| News from OZ
BURLEIGH forward Robert Apanui has celebrated his 100th Queensland Cup game for the Bears in style with an outstanding two-try performance in his team’s 30-12 victory over Wynnum Manly.
Burleigh dominated possession from the outset and it took just four minutes for them to open their account when man of the moment Apanui split the line open to score. A beautifully executed set play from halfback Brent McConnell paved the way for a try to lock Matt Pow in the 12th minute.The Nick Parfitt conversion handed the Bears a handy 10-0 lead.It became 14-0 in the 27th minute when Apanui was in the right spot at the right time to score a lucky try from a grubber kick. Burleigh all but wrapped up the game on the stroke of half-time when Adam Fielder raced away to score a stunning try.The breathtaking movement also featured Jacob Fauid, McConnell, Apanui, Parfitt and Pow.
Bears coach Jimmy Lenihan challenged his players to produce another consistent 40 minutes of football in the second half. Lenihan got his wish as the Bears skipped away to a 30-0 lead following tries from McConnell and Daniel Issac. However, the hungry Bears couldn’t quite complete the mauling as the Seagulls added a touch of respectability to the scoreboard in the final three minutes with tries from Chris Birch and Matt Seamark.
The Burleigh squad was presented with the Adam Watene Memorial Trophy by Adam's wife Moana after the big win. A number of players including Man of the Match , Robert Apanui played with Adam in the 2004 QLD Cup Grand Final win over Easts and they were proud that they were playing for a Trophy in memory of Adam Watene.
