@raznomore still a few tickets available Raz, expecting 52k at this stage.
I'm locked into a BBQ so won't be going. At least I'll be with other Kiwis.

Im there. I will be looking at the forum Sunday morning to see what the game was actually like and refresh my memory.

I'm looking forward to this one, I am nowhere near as confident as in the past. We are just missing so many starters and even with all the talk it is still a dead rubber. Hopefully the boys who are trying to impress bring the enthusiasm required to lift the team.
I think the key will be to nullify Genia, he was masterful last time and we just gave him too much space. I suspect Cane will be given a pair of his old undies to sniff so he has a decent track.
I am also looking forward to seeing how Lima goes starting, I like him as a player and look forward to his pairing with SBW. His boot may also come in very handy.
I have a 10 hour shift at work today (Australia) and I have not heard a single person in my entire workplace mention this game all week. Looks like the crowd in Brissy maybe all the bros from the Gold Coast.

haha, some people have way too much time on thier hands
A post off FB
I'm an avid Rugby fan, a politics and data nerd, and an analyst by trade - with the result of NZ's election finally known, I've crunched the results of every test the All Blacks have played and mapped it against the political party in power at the time of the test, dating back to 1935 (when the first Labour or National government was elected)…
In the 137 Wallaby tests since the first Labour government was elected on 06/12/1935, the All Blacks have a win rate against the Wallabies of 71.43% when New Zealand has a National Prime Minister, and a 69.81% when we have a Labour Prime Minister...
That could suggest that the Wallabies chances of winning have just increased by 1.62%

@taniwharugby Haha, gold! I see one major flaw though. He should have taken into account what government the Aussies had at the time as well!

We are still talking about the rugby, right?
Work lingo coming through. But yes Cane needs to follow Genia like hes a bitch on heat. Actually maybe Smith needs that job.

I read that rain is expected in Brisbane for most of the day.
Rained all day in Sydney yesterday, so highly likely.
Doesnt appear they have had much today with 4mm but they have had plenty in QLD recently. No doubt ground and ball will be a bit wet.
