    Scott Spedding butchered a certain try last week by ignoring a glaring overlap, but other than that he had a goodish game and he has long kicking distance off the tee. Bit surprised to see him dropped altogether unless he is injured. Dulin can be quite slippery though, a French Shane Williams.

    Also: aside the 2 wingers, that team is all French/French colonies. Nice to see.

      Spedding has a foot injury.

            @Billy-Tell Maybe but he is having a pretty good end of the year. Making big yards ball in hand, and very busy.

              Highly likely they will. The stadium is just down the road. No excuses for getting lost on the way.

                I reckon the Ireland v Wallabies game will be worth getting up for too

                  @Crucial You can subscribe on Sky for 12.99 a month. Unfortunately, probably not a channel that many of the local pubs will have either I reckon.

                  So frustrated by the UK broadcast this year.

                  This is the third different pay tv provider their games are on!

                  It's insane and frustrating as at least previously you knew if you paid for sky you would have it.

                  All these different providers are just driving up the cost of watching as you have to pay for all. (And although that seems like more money eventually you lose people to dodgy streams)

                  I already shelled out extra for BT this month and will not be doing it for a third service so it looks like a stream for me when I have always paid to watch previously.

                  I hope the All blacks don't want a following in the UK as this is a great way to alienate any casual viewers. (I sadly am obsessed so will persist to watch in some way!)

                    @Davesofthunder Over here it's pretty much Sky for the England games and the BBC for all the rest, due to the RFU's deal with the satan that is Murdoh. Can you not get a BBC feed where you are?

                          @mimic The Ireland-Aust and Wales-SA games aren't on live though. I was hoping to watch one of those before the AB test but there are only replays later in the day.

                          The only other live games on Sun morning are Eng-Arg and Exeter Chiefs v Worcester Warriors - WTF?

                                      @Bovidae That's right. If you want to check in advance, use the tv guide from Vodafone (don't forget to select your Channel Favourites): http://customerzone.vodafone.co.nz/residential/inhome/tv/tvguide/tvg-grid.cfm?v=l&d=2016-11-25&h=10&f=6&c=mychannels

                                        the broadcasting of this tour has been a cluster fuck.
