hahaha get the fuck out. 178 for a no booze seat 100m from the end of the ground? go fuck your own face.
300 for behind the goals? 400 for diagonally up from the corner post?
Are the ARU trying to recoup all their losses in one game?

I'm with @voodoo I'm fine with Beauden and Jordie in the back three. They link up well and Beauden will no doubt keep his little brother in position. It's pairing them up with Bridge that is so meh. Rieko and Clarke were my front runners for the 11 jumper with daylight behind them.
You do realise Beaudie left the Hurricanes, so you don’t have to fluff him any more 😎
On this Bridge fella, he’s the real dealz. He’s got the busnizz and what it takes. He will prove you’s guys all wrong

I’m going to hold judgement until after the game. Even though it’s less fun.

i kind of hope aussie do well, rugby was good when things were a bit closer between the two, a strong aussie might mean we get a good super comp sorted
Wash your mouth out with soap!!!!! I far prefer the All Blacks sticking at least 50 points on the Wallabies (by halftime preferably) than any close run affair.
those heartbreaking Bledisloe losses were like two decades ago!
Never forget
Crush them every chance we get

Nope, not at all.
NZR, SARU, UAR, and RA are!
Those prices are twice Eden Parks!

Given the talk of form, and we know Goodhue's was mixed at best at 12, makes you wonder if Laumape was fit, would we have had a Laumpae-Ioane midfield?
One of Jacks strengths (very much a Crusaders strength) is to stay in the pattern on both attack and defence - doesn’t feature much in highlights reels. A backline of Mounga, Laumape, and Ioane would be all about the excitement - a bit like watching a Blues team for the last decade.

@mariner4life Some of us are still struggling to get over Cardiff Arms Park in 1905!
Deans scored, I tell ya.

Not a fan of this selected team, I don’t like to see players picked out of position it smacks of not being strong enough to make the tough selection decisions.
Foster has underwhelmed me once again.Very odd AB team for a host of reasons. But all very Foster. Not impressed. How long until Razor becomes our coach?

I don’t know the actual prices (we’re paying $200ish) as my mate just organised it all.
I can suck it up this year as I’ve had multiple trips cancelled so haven’t been spending a lot.

$150, for right on the halfway line, very top of the bottom tier... right next to the entrance(and bar).
Pretty happy with that, considering it's a tenth of the price of the last rugby ticket I bought, off some dodgy scalper on the internet (cheers, @canefan ) , for a shit game.

Is that pre-release? Because they're not on public sale according to Ticketek
Looking at the double-headers for Bankwest - $300 for 2 games of Test Rugby in the best stadium in Sydney sounds alright. They'll sell pending COVID.

Sorry about that mate, lucky I didn't guarantee a win or your money back.... if I had my time again I should have sold it for double to some pommie guy instead of inflicting that on you

Just reading the caketin isn't sold out, 5000 seats available, first time since 2012 (in wellington )
apparently, people still a bit cautious -

get fucked
our 3rd best 8. picking two 7s.
the best fullback shunted to the wing in order to select the 2nd best fullback
neither of the two wingers are really the best in the countryand it's one of the last physically imposing back 3s i have ever seen
this is a shit team selected by fuckheads.
I was initially really concerned until I read this. Now I think we'll win by 20+.

This is the view $398 buys you in aisle 411

@antipodean Probably a good place for an Wallaby supporter, carnage further away...

I’m going to give Fozzie a bit of slack on his selections for this game, and maybe the next one.
First game in charge, and he’s definitely playing it safe by going with what/who he knows.
If after a settling in for a couple of weeks, and he continues to go the conservative route and pick players out of position while leaving absolute guns like Clarke, Sotutu & Jordan warming the bench I’ll be pretty annoyed.
Imagine if he loses a with this ‘safe’ team... this place will implode.
-
Yeah shit team, but let's face it, he's not deliberately selecting to lose. Playing these guys 4 times too so got to be able to hold some things back and shake it up - the new Aussie coach will actually study the opposition rather than being an arrogant fucktard.
I'm picking we'll win quite comfortably (although not necessarily by a lot) - looks like there'll be a real push for territory and tiring them out before bringing on an explosive bench to take advantage.
Dick move saying one thing and doing another though. Is Foster going to be even more about manipulation via media?
