if you are AUCKLAND born you play for the North if you are born anywhere else in NZ you play for the South... I doubt it will be able to incite the feelings that of loyalty that our SOO does... With that said I am a fan I hope it gets off the ground.. Maybe not next year as the draw has now been done and plans are in place but 2006 when we can go back to split rounds to allow for it in the weeks between our origin...
I think they need to find a suitable mascot for the Auckland side. Something similar to the cockroach. They need to manufacture a real hate for the Auckland side. Are there any suitable rodents that infest the auckland area?
Yeah, how about Rodney, the dirty (& possible gay) Rat
