And so the countdown starts for the big game at Te Whaea under lights. It's a game that has brought a whole lot of people out of the woodwork. Former Stallions Ben Hodges and Nick Goodall have begged for a return to the mighty team, and team manager Rafa Walker even received the following email from the club:"Graham Essel from the men's firsts just texted me - he is super-keen for a game on the turf and wonders if you need a spare player tomorrow night"
The mighty Stallions however do not just throw their sacred shirt on anyones back, so a swift "Thanks, but no thanks (i.e. Piss off!)" was issued, to which Essel replied
"All good mate, I will be there to watch so thought I'd put my hand up"
Looks like there might need to be some temporary seating installed, it looks like a sell out.
