One of the reasons we have a team to support.

Peter McLeod, one of the people instrumental in getting the Warriors into the Australian NRL and the long-time head of Events & Venues Rotorua, has died.

Rotorua Lakes Council staff were yesterday remembering the man who drove development of the council's event venues for the last decade and was at the forefront of many of the city's successful events.

Mr McLeod, Events & Venues general manager since March 2005, died at home on Wednesday night. He was 62.

Oh boy, what a shock. Far too young. I had quite a bit to do with Peter in the months leading up to the Auckland Warriors first kick off. He was also at Auckland Rugby League.

He was a bloody good guy. RIP Peter.
