Super Rugby Trans Tasman

@stargazer I've been so oblivious to this it completely slipped my mind that I'd be able to go to games.
The Chiefs at Brookvale
The Canes at the SCG (I might take a banner to abuse the Canes as an organisation even though I'll be cheering for them.)
The Canes at Canberra (I can make another banner).
The Chiefs at Townsville. I might even make this trip even though Townsville has been one of the few places in Oz I've visited that I didn't really care for.

Nope - Brumbies at Eden Park

At 8pm in June? Watch it at a pub.

Yeah, I didn't factor that in, I'll definitely stay at home to watch that one and abuse the Canes in the Fern as I watch.

Spot on, sorry the previous graphic had Brumbies first so I assumed it was at home for them

Not joking - that tweet was the first I'd even considered they might.

@antipodean I agree, but I remember some of the Blues' faithful on the Fern asking the question whether BB would be available.

Yeah no shit, cos after quarantine they'd be back in time for the last game - FFS, how is that breaking

Really looking forward to this.
Just hope they get their act together on broadcasting rights and we don't get the SRA shambles we almost had in the UK.

Before SRA you might recall that beating Australian opposition wasn't an issue. The Blue's problem was they couldn't beat any NZ teams. Now that they're capable of the latter, one can only assume the former will be a doddle.

Nice thought.
Blues fans won't have as much faith as you.
You never know though, the Black craps aren't. We have decent cricket teams in all three formats, so anything is possible even for the Blues. -
Am I a fluffybunny with all sorts of kiwi rugby bias when I think we'll all smoke the Aussie teams?
Definite hyperbole from me but the errors in Aus rugby seemed to come thick and fast whenever I watched. I thought the skill levels in Oz were pretty average, but time will tell i guess.
Never feels right writing off Aussie sports teams but I certainly won't be tipping them.

damn ain't that the truth. We have come such a long way. Long way to go, but we are no longer the cellar dwellers of previous years. I expect us to do well - but a BBBT coached Reds side at home will be tough. Looking forward to teh comp to be fair

I think its great we have no idea how good they might be or how poor we might be!
