Hey people
 
Just trying to get some idea of numbers of those interested in some form of (dis) organized travel arrangments for those living outside (Read=North) of Wellywood.
 
I am trying to get some sort of idea of numbers for those interested in pick ups along the way Departing from Auckland.
 
Not sure if this will work though as I myself would rather fly down during colder months.
 
Cost =Dunno just have to pinch one of the old collection boxes from the church along the road I Guess.
 
Any ideas?..feedback..ie which games would you rather see etc
 
Basically I am just trying to get something off the ground here and see where it leads too
 
Cheers

Yep me and a mate are definetly in, and as I said some others maybe.

I think the first game against Melbourne  is a  must. The only problem is games are on Friday/Sunday, which  means if driving/training we  will need to  take the next day off possbly, depending  on  game times.

Also, an away game  wouldnt hurt ;)

I know  someone who works for a company renting out Mini Vans, maybe be able  to get them on the cheap... you can drive 8 people on a  regular licence.

Didnt find the Sunday games to bad when we were travelling to Auckland. There's bugger all traffic on the road on Sunday nights so we didnt get back to Wellington to late, still enough sleep for work the next day. You could also look at a cheap flight down on a Sat/Sun morning and pick up a rental car to drive back to Auckland. They charge anything from $0 to $10 to take one back to Auckland so its a very cheap option. Usually down and back the same day so there's no overnight costs. We could do Wgtn to Erricson return for under $150 bucks (petrol was cheaper than)
Agree the Friday night games are the hardest to get to get to from outta town :(
