The match is a confirmed sell out.
Excellent
About fucking time

We went straight into the test series against Ireland with no warm up games either, if memory serves me correct. Last year we went straight into the RC without any warm ups, though that was a condensed year due to the RWC.
I feel like we are giving the Northern sides an advantage by not scheduling a warm up against at least one of the Island nations. It also gives them a chance to play a tier 1 side more regularly so win win.

Thanks team!! I'll suss a spot

Scot Barrett needs to work on talking to the media. Not a great interview.

@Wreck-Diver narrowing the focus.....

I thought he was OK for the bit I saw. But kind of boring so stopped watching

I’m sure he will and will get a lot of support doing so.
Would be good to cut out his ‘uuuummmm’s

Yeah bit dissapointing since the last few ABs captains have been such interesting raconteurs
Cane, Read, McCaw...
Esp Read
But they didn't speak for so long. Ardie's more interesting as is Jordie so maybe send then out to do the longer talks. Scott should keep it very short AND DO ANY talking on the filed

McCaw was boring as fuck but a great leader on the field. -

McCaw was boring as fuck but a great leader on the field.I reckon.
……apart from Tana and JC they all have been.
Kieran Read tried to liven things up by widening his eyes I guess.

@Machpants sorry if I have an opinion that you don't like. Your safe space and cuddly toy are to your left. Your therapist is on her way.

NZRFU taking a leaf out of the Black Caps' book of preparing for a big series?
