I will be going, dad's birthday present is sorted!
I'm looking at flying over for it.
Bledisloe in Perth is Historic. In all likelihood a once in a lifetime opportunity.
I am in two minds. I don't want to give any money to the ARU, but it would be great to see the All Blacks play in Perth again.
Let me know if you come over Ex. Be good to catch up for a bevvie! :D
Not interested.
NZRU were just as instrumental in our demise as the ARU were.
Yesterday I paid my deposit for a open air box for State of Origin in 2019.
Bloody Mungo. ;)
What is the date. Probably won't go but would be good to know when it is
The only date I can find other than '2019' is on an Optus Stadium hospitality package, which says 'June 2019'.
But as the 2019 Super Rugby season final round is 14-15 June, and there will be 3 weeks of finals, the very earliest date the Bledisloe could be is 13th July 2019 (and that's without a week between the Super Rugby final and the Bledisloe). In 2015 they had a single week off between SR & the Rugby Championship, so I'd guess it'd be similar for 2019, so 20th July 2019.
But that's just a guess.
No June break next year so it will be later. There will only be home and away in the RC too, so the big question will be whether it is the first or second match. If it is the second, the ABs will show up for the first at home then treat the second as a selection trial.
I wish they would come back more often, even under the guise of All Black XV. They have never been here in my lifetime. Hopefully they come here regularly however I will be pissed if a training squad turns up with it being a world cup year. Another F**k you from the RA.
