Still waiting for someone to tell me why having the Aus v NZ game anywhere else other than London would be a good idea?

I think i'll be waiting a long time.

It should be somewhere bigger than the stoop.

Frankly, unless the economic climate gets loads better, you can forget London - certainly for families. The cost of getting to London and then the ground is prohibitively high. Not fortgetting that you can watch it on the TV at home (in 3D by then), or, if you want more atmosphere, in the pub!

But if Australia are playing NZ... it's fair to say the vast majority of supporters will either be Aussies or Kiwis. It's unlikely many poms would want to come along anyway.

Most Aussies and Kiwis live in London...so we dont have to worry about the cost of getting here.

So why play the fixture anywhere other than in London? If its played somewhere up north it just means the Aussies and Kiwis have to travel.

The crowd at an Auz v NZ final in London will look like the worlds largest barstaff convention!

The opinion that people have that all Aussies and Kiwis in London work behind a bar is completely untrue.

Its like the rumour that the English are terrified of soap and water and refuse to shower more than once a fortnight.










I know the English have a shower once a week whether they need one or not

TBF they should have it at wembley, they is far more cubicles at that stadium then any other. Thus making it more conveinent for the Aussies who like to over themselves.
