I'm not 'over' it I dont think, I do think the build up was dragged out a bit long though (Tv1 counting down from 100 :facepalm: ). But I think it will be fun and exciting once it has started. The only rugby I support and watch is the All Blacks, I dont know the positions well, I can't play it, but it is relieving to see something that we are renowned for globally. But I think it is best in the main centres, Auckland is going to be the place to be on Friday night for the fireworks (stupid that NZ vs Tonga is on at the same time). It will be a good economic boost hopefully for NZ, but David is right about the outrageous prices, no one is going to pay $200 for a black T with a white fern on it lol, I will just make my own All blacks shirt .
Channel 4 on tv is the non-rugby channel and you have fish tanks if you don't want to see any of it, but it would be a shame ignoring the whole thing.
....it will not be good if All blacks dont win though lol.... RIOTS IN THE STREETS! :cofn:
