OK, this is just the draft, but it gives us an idea when and where the boys are playing, and to start the never ending grease up the wife/partner/girlfriend for some quality time at McLean Park and to really nail it and get them to drive while you sample the sponsers amber nectar.
We start the season off with a home game against Auckland on a Sat (1st Aug) afternoon game, perfect time of 2.35pm kick off which is also a perfect time to crack open a quiet one. Hawkeye loves afternoon games, even better when there is clear Hawkes Bay skys, a nice breese coming off the beach and semi hot temps to drink Tui watching the best team in the Comp. Anyways, below is the draw. Start making plans people, and for those that need a few pass out's.....it's time to start the prep work now. Get the lawn mower out, tool belt, dinner, flowers...whatever ya need to do.
