Great Job by the second half Yellow Fever gang...think it puts smiles on many faces down at Newtown and next time they'll get into it...The "Judas" chant as Dom Rowe left the field was a gem!

Attendence of 600 must be a little disapointing for a local derby?

I'm sure that's not right.  My pick would be closer to 1000.  In Newtown Park it's notoriously hard to judge crowd sizes.

600 may have been gate takings I suppose, but kids were in free so wouldn't have been counted.

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

Plus 40 or so on the bus...

Yeah, a bit mystified by that number.

There were 100+ around the bar, probably 200 on the other side and I would have thought 500+ in the stands.

elsewhere in this thread it said 600, but most replies have suggest it was over that amount

That was better than any Air New Zealand Cup match I've been to.

Mind you, the crowd was bigger there and at any Lions match

Feverish - or someone else - care to match the names to the players? I figured the colonel is Peter Halstead and if pushed, I might guess Michael Eager and Dylan Hall for the others. Purely because I've seen these three in the zone with us, but I've never got to know them by nickname.
 
Go on - give us the history.

G = Graeme Little
Woody = Wiremu Patrick.

Eager is usually ickle Mickey Eager, or his forum name which i will refrain from using to protect his anonymity.
