Did anyone ask that question?
IIRC he did not actually say to play in Auckland, just that we had to find ways of engaging the rest of NZ. He then mentioned how many kiwikickers tere were in Auckland to flag the potential rea NZ supporter/membership base.

Feel very confident from Richo's and Finnis's words that we have the right people in place.
Hope you had time to quaff a few in-between note-taking.
gut feeling I had was he was thinking more along community camp / clinics / promotion on an ongoing basis
i think that our NZ based board member is also a board member of the Wellington Stadium
I think they are thinking of trying to get some more Auckland people to the Wellington game/s longer term
Also I think that this outreach to Auckland is part of a plan to grab a NZ sponsor or 2 ... Air New Zealand for example, or NZ Tourism ... like Hawthorn have done with Tassie
AwayInUSA no longer ... have based myself back in Melbourne for a decade of Saintsational Success (with regular trips back to the USA)

Neil Roberts was there to talk this through with anyone wishing to leave a few $ for the Saints when they die.
A lot of Private Schools do the same thing also as do several other organisations. Another good idea.
Not sure what will come first.
A premiership or my bequest
The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules.
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!
