I didn’t know most of the players snd it felt very soul less without crowds.

A lot of them are the same players from previous years?

Yeah, I should caveat that I didn't buy it last year either but decided I wanted to this year.

Reality is that most of the demand here was likely from expat Saffa's. So with no SA teams in it, it's unlikely that the viewers would see the likes of Sky have any interest in taking it up.

The free highlights on YT will do it for me.

Yeah, but that's not important right now.

@majorrage yeah I felt I was supporting NZR last year while they tried their best to get us some rugby. This year... not so much...I feel they're doing almost the opposite and it seems absurd with the centralised location and no fans allowed.

it is always so damn early. Sitting outside, 28 degrees today, and I can't get my head into a winter sport yet. I'm old fashioned like that.

@nzzp yeah we're probably ok in that regard, after clearing up the neighbours front awning from my back yard, Eunice has left Franklin behind. If I'm being warned to stay at home indoors, I'm happy to oblige.

@Victor-Meldrew are you using the sanzaarugby site? Is it decent?

Yeah, it's good for me.
