Richter 7.1
Richter,
the team mascot, adopted Derek several years ago after spending time as
a stray in and around Christchurch. Shortly after the
Te Anau
earthquake of 2003, Derek casualy strolled out of his house having
experienced his first New Zealand Earthquake to find a small kitten
hiding under the deck. The event of the day determined Richter's name.
