Based on the team changes for the ABs I have decided to watch this game now. I'm particularly interested in how Ioane and BFA go.
I’m going to throw it out there that most of you who said you wouldn’t watch the game still will. You are all All Black supporters regardless.
I may tape the delayed coverage and watch it in the morning if I don't hear the score but I very much doubt that.

love how people still say this

I'll 'tape' it too, and may watch on Sat morning, break my 3rd/4th playoff virginity?

@Hooroo I still have one too, one of those burner ones where I converted all my tapes on to DVD

:man_raising_hand: I will sheepishly put my hand up to be in that camp
Can't miss Read & BFA's (and the others) last games.
Also very keen to see how Rieko goes.@Gunner said in RWC: 3rd/4th game All Blacks vs Wales:

Also very keen to see how Rieko goes.Look I dont think there is any shame in that, we are all passionate and we were all venting, but given its our team, we will all sneak in highlights at minimum somewhere. Also gives us something to

Nah I was kidding but your comment is still correct (or at least it feels that way

Also very keen to see how Rieko goes.That's why I'm going. Want to see them mash Wales for 15 and THEN, and only then, put 50 on them.

Like this. Thought Nugget might get a rest, but that's a serious backline and will be an interesting comparison with Saturday.
Forwards exactly as I expected.
ALB and Jordie make sense on bench as cover so many eventualities.
And fans everywhere, including many English, want to see ABs show some Formula One rugby (BUT the right to go wide STILL has to be EARNED!!!!).
I'll be there...

@pakman where are the fans? I am staying in Shibuya and haven’t seen anyone other than locals in Halloween outfits this week.

Go here for a drink - it's just down the road near Ebisu, you can use English, and it is required to get a 'Panda', which you shake like a slushy.

Very few. I was in Shibuyu yesterday with my old Orange AB training top and had to bat off Jap TV crew desperate to interview rugby fans! Did speak to a couple of Welsh fans yesterday in Hama-Rikyu Gardens.

I think the worst of the dark clouds is blowing over for me. Still gutted as but hey, we were beaten by a better team on the day. Keen to see how we respond against Wales, and don't want to miss the last appearance in black for the guys moving on. I think our tight 5 is going to ignite ALL of the remaining powder!!

That was s pretty good meme. In 2009. And if you ignored every other cup that wasn't the World Cup.
It appears to have been made with the England Soccer team in mind.

Worth a watch. Im pretty concerned about where the players heads are at, they look devastated, Hanson was pretty impressive dealing with both Richie and Smith here.
I really hate the 3rd place game, not fair on the players.
@Kirwan That's a hard watch.
