Went to their training last night... took the oldest boy down who loved it and got everyone's (including the coach) bar Gillions signature on his ball.
It's been a while since I have been up that close to the lads, but man we are a big team. Just looks tiny on TV, but isn't actually that small. Looks very wirey but strong.
Things I noticed

Things I noticed
- Barbs training by himself and icing of the knee. Looked comfortable, so probably more of a precaution.
- Payne sat out the last bit as well - so maybe carrying a little knock?
- Crocombe is starting
Cool pic. In some countries in the world it's near impossible for young kids to get up & close to their national football team heroes.
NZF have today tweeted about Welly boys Garbett & Stamenic being at the 2009 Bahrain match as kids, and the impression it made on them.
Hopefully NZF can do their best to get the AWs back to NZ, as much as possible in the future. And yeah a visit down to the South Island is overdue.
