Likewise.

Must've been quite a few Kiwis in the crowd - either that or a really big contingent if ex pat Aussies as well as Aussie tourists.

Can anyone at the game confirm?


i am Melbourne Skies - sometimes Blue Skies, Grey Skies, even Partly Cloudy Skies.

There was a good mixture of both aussies and kiwis. All the kiwis i spoke to on the way out really enjoyed the game and seem keen to see more. No a bad atmosphere although the ground itself seemed not very good I think the club should see it as a success the people of wellington really embraced the game ad were very welcoming

Good to hear Michele.

It was a bit scrappy and congested, but hey, it's rugby country...probably didn't impact the level of enjoyment as much as it good of elsewhere.

Ground seemed too small for AFL. Not much difference in length to the SCG but too narrow along the wings. Made it more congested than it needed to be. Suited Sydneys inside game perfectly.

Ahh well. Even my missus who doesn't even barrack for the saints suggested that it would be a good game to go to one day. In many respects better than going interstate because you get to go on a holiday as well in another country.

I think it was a very good crowd. I think the game was a success


In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

Awesome to be a part of and the club should be both proud and commended for driving such a bold initiative. Great to be at the forefront rather than lagging, well done to all involved...


The future's so bright I've got to wear shades...
