We'll stick to the rules at all
times'
THE new chairman of National
Judiciary Committee of PNG Rugby Football League James Waisime
will ensure the constitution of PNGRFL, Players Code of conduct
and the Standard competition rules are enforced for at all times.
Waisime was elevated to the number one spot to replace former
chairman Erick Kuman who have been elevated to deputy chairman of
PNGRFL Board in November last year during the annual general
meeting.
PNGRFL has appointed a new chairman and retained the services of
seven former committee members and three new members for the
committee.
The members reappointed were deputy chairman Yapsi Tenvkoyfa (Tabubil),
Kevin Murphy (Hagen), Victor Kauga (Lae) Joe Samara (Tabubil),
Glen Amstrong (POM) and Brother Andrew Simpson (Madang) while
Francis Matmilo (Tabubil), Patrick Monolok (Tabubil) and Allan
Tagai (Kiunga) were new appointees.
An employee with OK Tedi, Waisime served his apprenticeship as a
committee member under the leadership of Kuman.
The PNGRFL Board has every confident in him to lead the committee.
The Board thanked Kuman for his outstanding leadership and his
committed members for their successful term in office which
resulted in a lot of improvements in the general attitude of
players and spectators.
The Board challenged the new committee to be fair and allow the
rule of the game to function taking its natural course. The game
will only improve if the rules are interpreted well without
prejudice and foster the true sportsmanship played under the laws
of the game.
The outgoing chairman Kuman thanked the Board for the mandate
bestowed to him and his committee.
Since bulk of the previous committee members remains in the
Committee he has every confident that the legacy set will be
continued by the newly appointed committee members to meet
expectations of all stakeholders. The public has acknowledged
change in players and spectators discipline and attitude and hope
to continue in 2007 season.
Waisime in accepting the appointment took the opportunity to thank
the PNGRFL Board for having confidence in him and believes the new
NJC will continue the standard displayed by the previous
committee. He pledged to commit himself with the support of the
newly appointed members to co-operate in ensuring the Constitution
of PNGRFL, Players Code of conduct and the Standard competition
rules are enforced for all misconducts both on and off the field.
