Wellington Sevens is just days away, and Sonny Bill Williams is stirring up interest like only he can.
The All Blacks Sevens team member has been in Wellington since last week for training, and has used his twitter page tonight to spread the love.

 He's giving away 4 tickets and some boots, adding that he hopes to honour Jerry Collins by giving the prizes to a young Porirua family.
All Black legend Jerry Collins, who passed away after a car crash in France last year, was a Porirua local and played for Northern United Rugby Football Club, or 'Norths'.
Several suggestions have been made on twitter for where Sonny Bill might find some grateful recipients.
@SonnyBWilliams Give Corinna School a call. That's JCs old school. 04 2359570. I used to teach there. Awesome kids who'd love to go.
