Blue is the Colour

If you're keeping up with the Blog, then you'll know that Iain had some exciting news to share. Well, he's just accepted a news job as Assistant Trainer with the Auckland Blues. We're both delighted and it was great timing - he got the call as we were about to step into the lift to go up the Sky Tower for my birthday dinner! This is a brilliant opportunity for the Ginge as the Blues are a Super 14 franchise and play in a Club tournament involving teams from NZ, Australia and South Africa. Its the next level of compeition from the Air New Zealand Cup Team with the guys at Harbour so a big step but he's excited about starting with them next month.
