    I wonder if we are going to have all the games here in NZ, with the way Oz is going with covid. Maybe a cut down series.

    The Wallabies apart from the Brumbies players who have gone back to canberra (No cases there)have stayed training in Queensland who have no covid cases.This may mean they can travel to wellington.

    If that happens Fosters job will be safe as he will not have to coach against anyone.

    You thinking Foster might still lose when there's no games?

    It wouldn't be weight though. Hur hur hur

    Mate I would expect Foster is the only coach who could lose when they are not playing.
    His ability to fuck up is unprecedented is the coaching world.

    The Government has granted the Wallabies an “economic exemption” to enter New Zealand so a Bledisloe Cup match at Eden Park can go ahead.

    @bovidae Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium is in Gqeberha. I had to look that up to find out that Port Elizabeth has been officially renamed. I had no idea.

    Not much new here, but if welly not available for test 2 it'll go to Eden park.

    'This is it': Wallabies' exemption the last during travel pause - Robertson

    'This is it': Wallabies' exemption the last during travel pause - Robertson

    The Deputy Prime Minister is drawing the line on rugby exemptions to the trans-Tasman bubble pause after the Wallabies arrive for the upcoming Bledisloe Cup.

    My worry is the ABs go to Perth after bled 2, can't get back until after NH tour code the bubble not re opened

    I have to agree with Fozzie that a year on and we still haven't worked out a solution for travelling sports teams.
    I can only guess that the whingers that 'hate' sport and those that want more Wiggles tours would never shut up if you put strict vaccination/testing/bubble rules in place for a rugby team.

    It depends on what the rugby teams expect. We have had international cricket and netball teams here.

    Hope we get the two tests in NZ. Will be silly playing the 100th test in Australia.
