Is that the bowling green? Pitch looks absolutely fantastic! Which Council maintains that green for the All Whites to train on? Full credits.



Its endeavour park isn't it at whitby, home of Western Suburbs.  Has been a fantastic ground for as long as I can remember.  Was beautiful for cricket aswell.

Porirua City Council would maintain that.

I have got to say that if they ever make a Clutch Cargo movie(kids ask your dad)  Nelsen would have to be odds on for the staring role. What a manly jaw he has, its enough to make any centre forward wet himself with fear

Yes, could I please get some info on whether there is open training on Thursday or Friday (however unlikely), and what times please (and where).

Mate, it was so cold out there today, at least the players got to run around to keep warm. Something I have to say. Just like at the Nix training ground, the players today and yesterday made themselves completely available to fans for photos and signatures. Their attitude displayed has given you the feeling you'd like to fall on the sword on their behalf because they will give everything on Saturday, absolutely everything.
 
Last player off the grass after the bus left, none other than Ryan Nelsen, still happily signing autographs. This guy has gone up sooooooo high in my estimations. An absolutely brilliant attitude. A true pro and proud Kiwi. I so want to see him leading out the lads in South Africa!

That's a private closed session though I think!!

The answer to life's problems are rarely found at the bottom of a beer glass - but it's always worth a look.

Fair enough i think. They have been more than accommodating. We just need to let them focus and get into it.

What time do Barhian arrive today?
