I have selected a very competitive team to travel to Wellington with me to take on the Phoenix Invitational eleven. To be honest I’m absolutely blown away as I’m a massive sports nut and love soccer and Rugby.
My mates are all now calling me a Mr fluky as this is the second online competition I have won, however this DB Export 33 prize is way better than the last one. How good is the prize! I’ve never seen the Phoenix play in person; in fact I’ve never seen a game of professional football in person so this is definitely going to be a something special.”
