The All Blacks’ round of 16 game will be in Brisbane assuming they top their pool.
A home test for the ABs then.

Looking at those games, I am unconvinced about the 24 nations World Cup. There are going to be a lot of very one-sided games that will be over as a contest inside the first 20 minutes.
WR wants more playoff games, so one-sided pool games is the consequence.

been saying it for years....make qualifying a bigger deal so smaller countries have some home games against larger opposition, bit of home support....dont have to travel etc....raise the profile in those countries....but keep the RWC proper as a tight elite competition

@KiwiMurph im no expert so people feel free to ignore me...just feels like a greater good situation, growing the sports fan base has to trump the four yearly cash grab...plus the original point, move the blow outs off the big stage
