Lions Lift Log

The Wellington Lions smashed 'n skunked Ranfurly Shield holders Auckland 27-0 at Eden Park on Saturday. The comprehensive drubbing means Wellington lifts ye olde "Log O' Wood" for the first time in 26 years. The city will be holding a ticker-tape parade for the victors. Chastised Auckland supporters are hanging their heads in shame, not merely about the humiliating loss of the Shield, but also about those lousy new-look skinny-hooped jersies that make their players look like a pack of metrosexual meeklings. Get rid of em!
