The Michael Moore Trophy is a rugby league trophy usually contested biannually during the National Rugby League season, in matches between the Melbourne Storm and the New Zealand Warriors. The Michael Moore Trophy was introduced in 2000 following the death of Melbourne Storm's inaugural football manager, Michael Moore, on 6 February 2000 in Auckland, New Zealand.[1]
Beginning in 2009, matches are regularly scheduled on 25 April, to coincide with ANZAC Day commemorations in Melbourne, with the game usually played in the evening at AAMI Park.
Melbourne are currently on an 11-game winning streak against the Warriors, having held the trophy since 2016.
Michael Moore[]
Michael Moore (1965-2000) was the inaugural football manager of the Melbourne Storm, controlling the day to day running of football operations. He joined Melbourne from the Brisbane Broncos, where he was part of that club's strength and conditioning program. Moore played rugby league in Queensland with Brisbane Brothers from 1984-1992, before finishing his playing career with Brisbane Souths in 1993. As well as his role with the Brisbane Broncos, he headed up the conditioning program for the Brisbane Bullets in 1996/97.
Outside of sport, Moore was a physical education teacher for two years in 1988-1989, and was a physical activities officer with the Queensland Police Service for nine years before moving to Victoria.[2]
Moore's sudden death was devastating to the tightknit Melbourne Storm club, with the Storm players jerseys carrying "Michael Moore 2000 Season" embroidery during 2000. Melbourne renamed the "Clubman of the Year" Medal in his honour,[2] with the award combined with the Chairman's Award to become the Michael Moore Club Person of the Year trophy in 2005.
Michael Moore was survived by his wife Tracey, and children Meg, Harry, and Georgia.
