Timeline

1955

David Marsden Rodger (born 18 June 1955) is a former New Zealand rower who won an Olympic bronze medal.

Rodger was born in Hamilton, New Zealand.

1973

Rodger was first selected to represent New Zealand in New Zealand Rowing's first Junior eight crew in 1973 with team members David Symmons, Peter Dignan, Ross Lindstrom, Graham Hamilton, Peter Rowbotham, Graham Hill, Greg Ball and Frank Sheehan finishing fifth at Nottingham, England.

He then represented New Zealand in the u23 class of a tour of Australia winning all races.

1974

1974 saw his first foray at elite level in the NZ eight finishing third at the Lucerne World Rowing Championships in Switzerland.

1975

He rowed in the same boat class in the 1975 World Rowing Championships in Nottingham, Great Britain, and won a bronze medal.

1976

At the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal he was a member of the eight along with Tony Hurt, Ivan Sutherland, Trevor Coker, Peter Dignan, Lindsay Wilson, Joe Earl and Alec McLean and Simon Dickie (cox).

1977

The 1977 World Rowing Championships saw Rodger secure second spot in the coxless four with Ivan Sutherland, David Lindstrom and Des Lock under new coach Harry Mahon.

1978

1978 saw another third in the men's eight at his home course of Lake Karapiro, New Zealand.

1979

1979 was a compulsory rest and marriage to Dianne Zorn, a leading New Zealand athlete.

1980

Rodger was selected for the coxed four to compete at the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow but did not go due to the Olympics boycott.

1981

1981 saw Rodger gain a seat back in the elite men's eight as stroke but also saw Rodger for the first time relinquish a top three spot as he'd scored in previous world championships.

However, the next year with Rodger in the six seat saw the NZ eight catapult from seventh in 1981 to world champions in 1982 and 1983.

1982

At the 1982 World Rowing Championships at Rotsee, Switzerland, he was the stroke.

In 1982, the 1982 rowing eight crew was named sportsman of the year.

The 1982 team was inducted into the New Zealand Sports Hall of Fame in 1995.

1983

At the 1983 World Rowing Championships at Wedau in Duisburg, Germany, he was in seat three.

1984

At the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles he was a member of the eight which finished fourth.

His wife competed in the women's 3000 metres, and that year they were the first husband and wife to compete for New Zealand at the same Olympic Games.

1985

After the disappointment of a fourth place at the Olympic Games, Rodger continued a further year in the eight in 1985 only to come fourth again, this time in the two seat.

Some believe that if Rodger had been in the six seat in both the Olympic eight and the 1985 eight the crew results could have been more golden but of that is now speculation or part of the rowing story time.

1987

The resulting fourth and continued placement in the two seat saw Rodger retire from rowing and join the 1987 America's Cup in Fremantle, Western Australia.

Rodger enjoyed being part of a group of people who built and sailed the first fibreglass 12 metre yacht (KZ3) in the 12 metre world championships finishing fifth as a grinder and the first of five rowers to join the America's cup and Team New Zealand at a later stage.

Rodger now coaches, encouraging deep burn and sixty-minute ergs, as well as eating yoghurt and drinking milk straight after training.

He has been quoted as saying "if you were like me you would be viewing milk as a food and not as a liquid" and "you'll see that I'm really a sheep in wolf's clothing" and "a joke's a joke, a poke's a poke......no poke, no joke."

He is well respected for making awkward jokes about his New Zealand accent, relying heavily on the correlation between 'six' and 'sex'.

His son Logan is now attempting to follow in his father's footsteps as a budding young rower and member of the Waikato Regional Performance Rowing Centre.
