All Blacks vs Wallabies Bledisloe 2 Eden Park 14th Aug

@nzzp it's pretty fucked up when you can jump on a forum and see these fantastic ideas like the ones promoted by you guys and yet no one at NZR can seemingly come up with anything close between them.
And not just on ticket prices for a test either.
-
I think a wider point is that the NZRFU was trying to get the same 50,000 people (from a city of roughly 2 million) to come back again, rather than there being (1) enough demand for the stadium to sell out twice, and (2) an effort to get new/different spectators to come along.

One article pointed out that they couldn’t reduce the ticket prices as those who paid for Bled 1 would complain. What a pile of shit, I paid full dollar for the first test, and would’ve gone for a second if they really reduced the prices. Covid forced the move be flexible, maeke two for one deals and kids deals and stuff. Just lack of flexibility.
Oh and fucking drop Steinlager as a sponsor FFS
hell - reward those who come for Round 2 with a deeper discount. Buy your seat again priority period for 50% off. FFS, no imagination.
And if tickets still aren’t selling let emergency personnel by $10 tickets
both great ideas! DCA the tickets of tests to real fans and reward those people in the community who have sacrificed for the majority. I would support free for nurses even! Empty seats look like bad marketing.

Fucking shambles all round
If NZ Test rugby was like the EPL - 19 home games a year - I'd get it.

NZR seems like a complete shambles for the last 2 years.......

Thought Akira was awesome on Sat. Really came of age. Seemed to go forward no matter what was hitting him and was brutal in defense.

If Shag had tried to nurture Akira instead of pushing him away, he could have been an asset in Tokyo a couple of years ago

Not sure Piatau was his fault, Charles was on the verge of being a regular starter. Luatua definitely

Charlie was at an age where he had probably limited time to grab the moolah. Top14/Heineken double was sweet icing.

Foster has timed Akira’s selection beautifully. Another notch in the resign him belt.

I have another apology for the AB coaches, I thought in an earlier Bledisloe the coaches had the bench replacement timing all wrong. Maybe, but it is clear that a bigger issue is, the AB bench just isn't of the same calibre.
