    Nice one Aucklanders. The 10,000 odd loyal supporters that were there during the hard times should be let in for free.

    Going to be an epic watch, just hope Beaudy has an off night. 😃

    Forecast looks good, clearing nicely. Afternoon rugby! Can't wait

    @Machpants Hope Sunday's game is better than that opening round effort!

    @KiwiMurph is this because he doesn't want to tackle Laumape? 😛

    He might well get more chances of it at fullback...

    "At mid-afternoon (Thursday) 34,000 seats had been sold for the first-round match between the Blues and the Hurricanes," ..."The initiative of General Admission seating at $20 for adults with children free has been so popular that it has exhausted supply."

    Gonna be awesome!

    That is awesome! I just hope for the sake of all those people that it's a high-quality match and that the Blues get up - it could really set things in motion for a cultural shift towards NZers actually watching live rugby again.

    I'm bracing myself for another heartbreaking loss. Years of ingrained habit. Really tempted to bet all the money I'll spend tomorrow on the Canes at $2.50 as loss insurnace ... either a cheap day out, or more expensive but delighted with a Blues win 🙂

    Surprised the teams haven't been announced yet.

    Does anyone know when the teams are going to be named?

    @sparky teams are named 2 days before the game - so today. Its a Sunday game which is why it probably feels late.

    A few tip offs that I've heard around the Canes side.

    Tiatia to start at Fullback
    Goosen on the right wing
    Mafileo in the mix.
    Aumua reserve hooker over Riccitelli
    Kirifi, Evans and Savea to start. Flanders out of the 23 altogether as I think Prinsep is in the mix. 😞

    @foobaNZ Yeah, hopefully my tip-off is wrong because Flanders deserves a spot.
