Push it back to March and have a few all-Aussie warm-up matches in February.

We already conflict with AFL, but the only real problem (so far) was the finals of their pre-season. We are not going to avoid that regardless, and things settle down once the respective seasons are in full swing (although the day we have a semi to play here....?). More interesting is the implications for the June Tests - maybe the Kiwis are sick of weak NH teams too.
