Very good news: Wellington 27. Auckland 0.
I took the boys to the airport to welcome the team home. It’s the first time since 1984 that Wellington has held the Shield. Only four members of the current team were even born then.
Here are a few pics:
The back of the Ranfurly Shield…it’s not often you get to see this side…
The more commonly seen ‘front’ of the Ranfurly Shield…
Piri Weepu, Captain of the victorious Wellington Lions…
A thumbs-up from an unknown player – someone please help me here…nice tattoo though…
