How many of those 50 games did you see at Eden Park?
Any favourite memories of watching the All Blacks at Eden Park during those 50 unbeaten games?

Not sure how many I've seen in that 50, can't be arsed counting them but probably around 20 at least, but I was there for the last loss.

The only AB game I have been to was 1994, 2nd test, against France.
The last time we lost at Eden Park.
It was Jonah's second game (corrected).
He looked horribly out of depth, especially defenisvely. Hit Ntamack late.
The crowd loved the strength of it, but he was penalized.
Stephen Bachop at 10, couldn't kick goals, couldn't really tackle and was a great positional kicker either.
Matthew Cooper at 12, who was very average.
I was on the terraces with my brother and Dad as France began their attack running away from us.
All I could make out is that that kept running and getting further and further away from us, eventually scoring.Sucked.

It was Jonah's debut.
.Because everyone loves a pedant ... 2nd test (debut week prior at Chch).
Made none of those 50. Last test I went to at EP was the 6-3 abomination v Aus in '91

You got to see the two female streakers though!

I counted 5 I attended. Last one was Lions 1 in 2017.
Favourite 55-35 over boks way back ….
WC final should be but sheesh that was a tense 80 minutes.

Yeah, played during the afternoon too.
I'm at 19 AB tests at Eden Park during this streak, plus a few others not involving the ABs.

Was lucky enough to be at the 2011 semi final vs Aus
Was an incredible buzz around Auckland that weekend with the other semi final the night before.
'Four more years' chant ringing around the ground.
So good

That was close to the perfect game. I remember all the talk about Pocock being the best in the world, and our loosies including Richie on one peg smashed him

They just ran at him, took away his one trick. Was an awesome night out. More one sided thn the score suggested

Likewise, to the extent that I initially forgot to count it in a grand tally of two...!
About as intense an experience as rugby watching gets. I remember it being mainly sheer relief at the final whistle.

Relief is the word. They left it so late there was no time to enjoy it!! I do seem to recall the team doing a haka in front of us after (not sure if that is real or not). What a crazy night. I remember the final Lions test in 2017(?). Deal gone bad, very frustrating. Watched lots of beatings meted out to the aussies over that time, and a few to the Boks. The opening match of RWC11 vs Tonga was also fun. Not one of the 50, but the BFs winning the WRWC vs England was a huge night as well
-
Six I think, most of which came during 2011.
-
Probably quite lucky NZ didn't play against the Boks at Eden Park in 2009 (though maybe the results wouldn't have been so bad that year if they had).
This thread is also a reminder that everyone here is in the 0.1% of NZ rugby fandom and not at all reflective of the larger population. Most All Blacks 'fans' will see a few games in their lifetimes.
