@nzzp Looking a lot better now. Looking at the hourly forecast, it seems the heavy stuff is done for now and will return around midnight. Hopefully that's the case anyway.

Lovely and sunny in AKL right now. But a lot of rain fell overnight, CF Jr's sports were cancelled due to heavy pitch conditions. EP drains much better though

Same here, amazing blue skies and sunny. Roads drying out, hopefully clear up to kickoff

Train to the ground pretty full. Good contingent of feral Speights drinkers. Go the blues

[Dice]

Dougie is in better shape than most current players.

[Tim]

@dice Is that him on the left?

[Dice]

He's no Owen Finnegan, but still😀

Predictions?

Blues to get off to a bit of a nervous start, but come right and win by 7. Sullivan, Papalii, and Tuipulotu to have influential games.

[Bovidae]

I note that it is the one year anniversary of the murder of Constable Matt Hunt, a big Blues fan.

Big noisy crowd in so far. I'm amped and loving it

[Bones]

35k. That's fucken awesome. Well done Auckland.

[antipodean]

If Aaron was playing for the Blues, they'd be unbackable.

[Bones]

Highlanders looked bloody relaxed, especially compared to the blues.

[KiwiMurph]

Heart says Blues.

Head says Landers.

Hopefully a good game.

Well that didn't age well during the anthem.
