I'm not sure if this has been mentioned but tonight's game is also live on Prime. Useful for anyone in NZ who wants to watch but doesn't have Sky TV/SSN.

@Bovidae Hadn't read/heard that before!

I didn't know either until I saw it listed today.

Light rain falling now, but hopefully that ends before KO.

This just reminded me to double check that Stan is showing the match ... thankfully yes it is.

I’m not sure if it was originally on the cards to show this one, but there was a bit of an email/social media campaign applying some gentle pressure!

I think I just saw him asking Grace where he should throw it.

Andy Farrell seems a much nicer bloke than his son.

cold, wet and dark. I passed my tickets to a mate, but would be a proper winter viewing experience. Still gutted I can't be there

[Grooter]

Stephen will be very proud of his boy Connor

[antipodean]

Crowd still pouring in or is that the rain? New Zealand should invest in covered stadiums everywhere. Ridiculous playing in this weather.

[No Quarter]

Well that's a bloody emotional start to the match

[chimoaus]

Great Haka lads, go well. Nice tribute for SW.
