If you're from NZ you'll know the importance of the Ranfurly Shield. First time since 1981 Wellington has held the Shield...I was there when we lost it. Great to be able to bore my kids with the stories! The second Wellington try.

Certainly been a long time between drinks;)
It's a shame that Canterbury won't be able to challenge for it when they beat Wellington in the final:rolleyes:
Its a cracker stadium, I've never thought of bringing my camera to a game though. Did you have any problems bringing it in?

If we play like we did in this game against Tasman the shield won't be in Wellington for long. First time I've been asked about the camera and no problem as long as it wasn't video. I just need a longer, faster lens! Tough getting decent pics from 15 rows back.

its only important when you have it!
unfortunately we don't get any (same week) coverage of the rugby here (missing the red & black teams coverage).
you've got a couple of good shots from that far back.

Good pictures considering your distance from play.
