Bledisloe Three: Sydney, 31 October
-
Forecasting thunderstorms for the afternoon but it should clear up and will be fine at kickoff. The ground drains pretty well too so conditions should be good.

Thunderstorms are just kicking off now ... I hope they're over by the time I'm walking to my seat!

Don't forget a towel to wipe seats!
About to head down to the Ettamogah for a few drinks with the club before we uber in. Tho after yesterday's work drinks I'm inclined to drive...

Yep, got a towel! And ponchos, gloves and beanies for the kids - I'm running with the "red wine" heating system for myself.

@Nepia I reckon Jordie very clearly went up a level this year. He was excellent for the Hurricanes - barely made a mistake.
He's made a few rookie errors in the ABs, but those have to be left in the past at some point. He'll doubtless make a few more mistakes in his career - even Ben Smith got sent off in a World Cup final - but, I expect them to be relatively rare.
People like Jordan and Clarke probably still have their rookie errors in front of them - even if they ultimately become very safe options.
@Chris-B I agree, Jordie made huge strides this year in minimising those silly errors and he was safe as houses for the Canes under the high ball.
I still question him as a winger because of his speed but he is still a solid option there.

Turn on Weather Observations (right of screen) and there's one for Sydney Olympic Park.

I'm sure that's what Fozzie's happy to settle for for now.
Jordan and Reece's games are a bit more risk and reward - in particular, Will makes things happen through skills allied with speed - but, that can go horribly wrong - and a test debut is a likely place for that to happen, so best to ease him in vs the Argies or dead rubber games.
When we play this fixture next year I'll be surprised and disappointed if Jordan isn't locked in by then.

Weather has hit out here again. Severe thunderstorm and hail warning for about an hour from now.
I have switched my plans to driving. But I need to prebook parking. But I can't prebook on the day

Not a great place to get to transport wise.. Not optimal but one fo my tricks is parking around Ermington and getting a bus in and out. There is a drop off point just behind the stadium

We just did the same thing, how stupid is it that you can’t prebook on the day!

I have to Google that.

@kiwiinmelb googled. 2014. 12-all.
Don't remember it at all.
The third match in Briisy I remember for Fekitoa's last minute try and Slade's conversion. Mainly because I got invited along by a contractor

It was the ABs first tryless game for like 120 games or something. Pathetic performance
But in all seriousness good luck tonight and I hope it's a cracking game of rugby.
