Bit of a bugger. Just been reminded my presence is required tomorrow am (UK time) helping set up things at the local village fete, so will likely miss the game.

Thank heavens it's only a friendly.

Can you have an ambush in a friendly ?

More of a surprise tickle perhaps but not if you know it is coming?

I'm more worried about pacts now, especially secret ones. I also just got told by an English mate that we would win by 15. I think that we are doomed.

Seriously looking forward to this (and slightly pessimistic).

Just got a nice surprise, in my hotel in Pattaya, scrolled the channels, game is on here on the setanta channel on a nice big screen.
Was just about to go out to a sports bar,

Feeling a bit nervous, not quite sure what to expect with this current ab side unfortunately, just lost a little confidence in them over the last 18 odd months, fingers crossed we see a good performance

[Machpants]

Yeah no idea how this will go, we've been pretty average over the last few years

[Stargazer]

Apparently, during the warm-up, BB has been taking most of the kicks. Not sure whether that means anything.

I must say, the friendly jokes are great and I hope they never die. Long live international test friendlies.

Yes. Far better than "When is the team named?" oh my sides....not.

So, when is the team being named?

[No Quarter]

Interested to see how TJP goes. He's been so good for the Canes, but controlling his emotions in the black jersey has always been a challenge for him.

I am stuck at work so score updates would be appreciated during the game.

Can confirm SBW hasn't had any noticeable niggles yet.

Welcome to test rugby RM.

[Donsteppa]

Two first fives for the All Blacks, both with poor clearance kicks in the first play...

[gt12]

Bit silly by Goodhue there.

[Rancid Schnitzel]

Great start by RM....

[gt12]

Christ Richie.

[gt12]

SBW with a turnover to start. Excellent.

[Machpants]

We look crap

[kiwiinmelb]

Shaky start

[gt12]

Shaky start

Their line out is already in trouble

[Donsteppa]

Someone tell Mo’unga that he’s not playing Sunday afternoon touch footy...
