Description:

Kevin joined NZ musicians in a rugby match against NZ politicians to benefit The Phobia Trust (which specialises in the treatment, support, research and education of people with severe anxiety, and phobic and compulsive disorders with depression). The match took place before the Auckland/Wellington NPC game, at Eden Park in Auckland. Players on the Musicians team included the Exponents' Jordan Luck and Dave Gent, Hello Sailor's Graham Brazier, Larry Morris from Larry's Rebels, former Split Enz member Mike Chunn, and Geoff Dolan.

The Musicians won! Final score: Musicians 12, Politicians 10
