Arguably the best nz team we can face in preseason since they're coming off a Chathams cup win against Auckland City

Most National League people I talk to agree they're the best team in the country. Will be good preparation for the season for sure.

Where is Platform 10? I thought where the bus replacement services drop you off was Platform 9, I would have assumed they were running from there.

Railway-track side is Platform 9, bus-stop side is 'Platform 10'.

And somewhere between the two is platform 9¾

Only Wairarapa and Kapiti train lines are bus replaced on Sunday.  For the other lines trains could be cancelled at short notice due to industrial action so check metlinks website before starting your journey.

Nix are unlucky, weather is crap out there today. 

Feels like that's happened a few times now over the years but I guess that's spring time in Wellington for you
I'm an optimistic pessimist. 
I'm positive things will go wrong.

Disappointingly only six people were on the first free bus. Hopefully there will be more later.  It also took 30 minutes as it went the long way round.

Garage sale a bit disappointing, nothing really old.

Retre isn't playing and I don't think Lucas Kelly-Heald is either as neither are warming up.  Can't see Ball or Scotty W.  Though I may have missed them 

Spotted legend Ben Sigmund!

One nil to the Nix so far.  Thought it was a good goal, Van Hattum scored I think.

Saw a drone so perhaps there will be some footage uploaded later. 

Edit, to add that Welly Olympic have been playing well.  Since we scored we haven't really had a lot of opportunities.  They have had three corners and we haven't had any!

They've got a pretty good side on paper to be honest, a few faces Nix could turn to if our season starts going down the dunny

Game over, finished 2 nil.  No idea who scored our second goal.  Good crowd in.

Thought we played quite well, obviously not A-League opposition, but was a composed performance nonetheless. Was impressed by the young guys in the second half - Luke Brooke-Smith, Supyk and GSR were particularly effective.
