First XV -> Club -> NPC
that only happens in the shit teams like ours. The good teams like @Chris-B 's mob and the Cantabs just buy in who they want

@Hooroo To an outlier.
Apart from the tragics on here, I don't know anyone that is looking forward to it.
Next time they should do it on the common colours of Jerseys a player played his 10th local representative club game for.
EDIT: and to make it even more micky mouse, Aucklanders can't play in it as it stands curently.
-
@Hooroo in all seriousness, if the Auckland players aren't able to participate, then call it off.

To even consider playing it without them shows how meaningless it is.

Or at least delay it.

Is the NPC starting on time with the lockdown anyway? I'm assuming the lockdown will be extended (due to incompetance)

@Kirwan I gathered you were talking delaying NPC not made up island of origin vs other made up island of origin

I have no idea. I don't even know when it is supposed to start.
Potentially, this year could be the best NPC in over a decade in terms of players available and crowds. I do hope it gets a good opportunity.
Pointless if it is sans Auckland and Harbour though

Both.

The Vuelta a España is delayed by two months. Surely a few games in paddocks around the country can be delayed a week or two.

Yeah if we don't have AB games, having them all available for the NPC would be great. Might offer an alternative for next year too if it's popular
-
@Kirwan if the NPC is able to go ahead, I will be surprised if crowd numbers are not up overall, and probably all regions too!
Sadly we know NZR money isnt generated by bums on seats, so while it will be good seeing good crowds for these matches, it wont change much going forward

Viable product with the right number of teams, if supported, can be another option to sell to broadcasters.
