Three players each with more than 100 appearances for the club will be part of the Wairarapa United squad for their Central League fixture with Napier City Rovers at Howard Booth Park, Carterton, on Saturday.
Carl Shailer, Aaron Spierling and Pita Rabo have all made it into three figures, a situation which has coach Phil Keinzley wondering whether that sets Wairarapa United apart from other Central League clubs.
"There's probably one or two [other clubs] who have a couple over the 100 mark but three ... I would think that was pretty unique," Keinzley said.
Shailer and Rabo were regulars in the Wairarapa United squad which had such a memorable 2011 season, capturing the nation's major knockout competition crown, the Chatham Cup, and coming third in the Central League.
Spierling also made the odd appearance last year but mainly turned out for the club's second team. And that seemed likely to be his fate again this season until a shortage of first string players saw him in the starting line-up for the side's opening league game against Olympic last weekend. He responded with a player of the match performance.
