@Billy-Webb No they're coming to Oz, not NZ, and have got the green light from Oz. But I think SA govt has banned international sporting tours

Hahaha. Shows you how up to date I am. Thanks for clarifying.
(Our govt lot just make this shit up as they go along and as I said, hard to keep it all straight)
We have cricket players at the IPL, rugby players in France and the UK, cyclists in Italy... but international sporting tours.... -
@Billy-Webb Yeah It was a line from one of the coaches after Green v Gold, first I'd heard of it! I think they should get dispensation, not like they're off to a covid hotspot
