Surely Smith will be stood down now? What a cluster.
Why? It all hit the press well before the team was named.
I just expected they (NZR) will want to investigate again and would have stood him down while they did so, seems they are doing half of that.

Saw this today
"A record low crowd in the 50-55,000 range is forecast for ANZ Stadium for Saturday's Bledisloe Cup.
The previous low at the Olympic venue for a Bledisloe is 65,328, and the average Bledisloe crowd there since 2001 is 76,219"
Yep, I'm pretty pissed off at the moment. Got tickets a few months back which are now selling for half price on Ticketek.

Looking at that Aussie squad, particularly the backline, it would be stupid to underestimate them.
Yeah, I don't think they're that bad. It's not like they went Philips, Foley, Cooper, Folau.
Im always nervous against Aus and I doubt that will ever change.
If the ab backline can actually stay on the field for more than half an hour they should do the business. Plenty of players with a point to prove. I hope they mix it up with Dmac at first receiver. Take some heat off BB and keep them guessing.

Just checked and its still $91 for the cheapest adult seat, I'm tempted but with this crazy arse wind at the moment I would struggle to convince the missus.

Just in case anyone was wondering what the weather is like at the moment. Fucken windy. I doubt they will see much rain if any prior to the game and it should be a very hard track as we have had no rain recently. Its also going to be cold with strong winds which could make kicking difficult.

I'm showing $46 to sit in the shit seats.
Correction: It's ANZ Stadium, so that should read shittest seats.
Platinum seats are $203, but they're still miles from the field.

Isn't $46 for the kids? double for adult?

@antipodean said in Bledisloe I:
@chimoaus No. Those are adult prices.
Ok, still probably too expensive considering the experience you would get up there
Plus I need to justify my Foxtel somehow.

Pretty much zero interest in this game at my workplace. They are more interested in calling me Shaun the sheep than talking rugby. They have also reminded me today that I pronounce "plant" wrong......
Racists.

It's more than microaggression. Tell them you were triggered.

Due to having to mention cars a lot I have resigned myself to Suebaru , but those Haitches annoy the fuck out me too. Almost slapped myself the other day when I did it spelling out a word.
Weapon gives me some grief too, I remember yelling out "Drop your weapon" during training and the instructor is like what the fuck is a weepen.
Another good one is when I say rear window they will reply, whats rare about it?
I also get asked to say Police Ten 7 all the fucken time.
