Congrats to the Stags

It was a bittersweet moment for Otago supporters last Thursday as Southland lifted the Log of Wood from Canterbury. I was speaking at a meeting in Christchurch and the mood was somber to say the least. While delighted for Southland, one wonders at the number of former Otago players (7?) and what might have been for the Blue and Golds had they stayed in Otago. On the other hand, the Stags broke a 50 year drought - next year it will be Otago's turn to do the same!!!
