Bledisloe 3

Remember this from 1996? I was chopped at the student pub, remember Mehrtens big run, but missed Buncey actually scoring it.
Fark, Bunce was awesome.

@nzzp Mehrts brilliant. Huge attempted clothsline on Cullen. If that had connected he really would be 'Beerbottle'!

Didn't look too bad until the reverse angle. Swinging stiff arm from Gregan. If that had connected these days it would be 6 weeks on the sideline.

Fixed.
Aw come on don't get prissy - someone had to make a stupid "FUCKEN KIWIS!" comment this week. The thread is comatose

That sucks. Ardie has been battling a bit for form, and Todd had earned another shot. Suspect he was going full noise at training and got unlucky. Stink bro. Does give Ardie a sniff though. Go hard son.

Some how I have completely ignored the fact this was to be played in bloody Brisbane. Now I have plans to watch this at a friends and I could have watched it live.
I do wonder if Julian being dropped has had an adverse effect on Ardie's form. Not having Julian within the set up etc. You'd like to think at this level such things are not factors but I do wonder.

Todd gooooone.
Ardie in.
Bit disappointed for Todd TBH, there was a hint he had moved ahead in the pecking order.

Indigenous jersey is getting some great promo in Brisbane.

If they get 50+ at this game that will be amazing. If I had to make a crowd prediction at half time in Bled 1, I'd say they would be lucky to get 10k.
A combination of good timing (no footy or cricket to compete against), good marketing (Indigenous jersey is a great idea) and good form since Bled I has saved the ARU.

@barbarian I checked on Ticketek last night and most sections had no tickets available, a few had 1 seat spots only and a couple of the Platnium sections still had blocks of 6 or so seats, so seems like a solid crowd.

Hmm. A month or two back we were going. Mrs boo had booked the hotel and everything.
There may have been a thread on it ...
But life happened and we couldn't get away. So warching from the couch.
Was however expecting tickets to be dumped at zero cost. Quite (pleasantly) surprised after Bled 1, and after the last time they played here to a stadium that seemed less than 50% full, that they're getting close to capacity.

P.S. when we checked a month or so back tickets seemed to have been well sold

@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.

Commentary re: Atlanta reminded me that was a very-very-very good week. Danyon Loader won a pair of gold medals and ABs sewed up TN with that win against the Okkers. Good times!
