think you'll find they also have to take into account their loyal wellington fanbase. If it was JUST a money thing then sure Auckland for both games makes sense. 

For me, taking into account the fanbase means both games in Wellington. I get that there's balance to strike but it feels as though Wellingtonians are getting shafted here.

Until 4pm yesterday Wellingtonians faced getting no games. By demanding 2 games you are basically asking the Welnix owners to increase their already $3M plus loss for this season, by a likely another $200-$400K range. Selfish

Wanted more games in Welly. Perhaps ask JA why she didn't create the TT bubble earlier. A whole other argument.

Lastly those Nix fans who head up to the Auckland games seem to enjoy themselves (Nix have a great record at EP - unbeaten even??). So grab a cheap flight/car pool up, and enjoy the bars of Sandringham. Doloras can give you a tour.
