Why the fuck do NZR bother giving tests to ungrateful cantabs? They never sell out, not even at the old stadium. Fuck them
All Blacks fail to sell out 20,000 seater Orangetheory Stadium
The All Blacks have so far failed to sell out Orangetheory Stadium ahead of their match with Los Pumas this weekend.
My apologies to cantabs, just filling 20k. Although without the need for the 3k temp seats
Orangetheory Stadium
Capacity
18,00020 ,000 with temporary setting so sold out with extra seating put in,
More apologies, I'll change feet in my mouth!

Hard to go to that stadium people in CHCH are just fucked off with it
the stadium is made of scaffolding, you walk through near ankle deep water when its raining, the price of the tickets compared to the experience is not worth it.Lets see if all the other tests in NZ sell out or are people losing their love for rugby in NZ, NPC crowds are small in a lot of areas SR crowds were down this season.
Rugby is taking a back seat with kids these days more play Football in NZ.
While others are playing playstation and basketball or stealing cars and ram raiding shops.is that the old league ground from the 70s ?
I remember as a kid the aussies or the poms would tour and play 3 tests ,
usually first and third at Carlaw park in Auckland , and the second one in christchurch , Addington ??

I'm not a tall man (hovering around 6ft) but I found it cramped and uncomfortable, very tight to manoeuvre in and out of the row,
Sounds exactly like Twickenham these days

Fuck me, watching the AB's walking to the field reminds me of the scene from This is Spinal Tap when they couldn't find the stage

Some of those Argies look dead set crazy.

Where's the music? Argentina national anthem is normally a favourite but it's a bit bland without music.
Ours is bland either way but certainly better with music.
What are they thinking?
Saving money for new stadium?

what’s the start time for the game? Assumed 7:35?
745, delayed cos ozzie game at weird time
I missed the Aussie game completely. That's a bit weird to have an early kick off.

They need to ban female singers of national anthems, so fucking high no one can get there apart from eunuchs
