Rugby fanatic Sarah there to cheer on ABs

Waipu real-estate saleswoman Sarah Morris holds her venue pack of tickets for five Rugby World Cup pool games at Eden Park in Auckland. She paid $6500 for them and was delighted when they arrived in the mail at the weekend.
She is now anxiously awaiting six semifinal and four final tickets she was allocated in the ballot run for venue-pack buyers. They cost another $6000 and she is expecting them to arrive by courier any day soon.
'Hopefully, I'll get them later this week. They'd better come, or the Rugby World Cup organisers will be hearing from me," she said, laughing but meaning it.
Ms Morris said her father and mother, Brian and Delwyn Morris, her partner Mark Farrell and brother-in-law Kurt Dowson were helping pay for the tickets and all were looking forward to the tournament.
Meanwhile, Whangarei rugby fans Denis Sloper, Mark Nurse, Craig Thompson and Ross Smith are making test runs in a bus on which they have spent $40,000 to take them to the 15 RWC matches for which they have tickets.
Their wives - who will accompany them to only one game - haven't been told what the tickets cost, but the four men must be about $20,000 down after paying for them. They include seats at the final.
The bus had its first trial run to the V8 races at Hamilton last month, and Mr Smith said there were "a few sore bodies" next morning. Another test run to Paihia is planned on Saturday night to celebrate Mr Nurse's birthday and to "make sure the bus fridge is working well".
