@Bovidae said in North vs South:
RA/Fox have moved the Melbourne Rebels and Western Force game to an earlier KO time so the North-South game will be in the middle of 3 live games.
They will be showing the Mitre 10 games live too which is great news.

Cheers. Just doesn't seem to be catching much traction in the MSM.
While I understand the reasoning behind the selection criteria, I also think it has negated the opportunity to talk up the Island vs Island aspect and create stories -
@Crucial said in North vs South:
NZRU not doing much media around this. News has been quite slim surprisingly
yeah, have to admit you can really see the difference in other countries with these "big events", they make a huge spectacle i assume to try and catch more casual fans
for this game it see a bit "hey guys we've got another game on this weekend....check it out"
