A crowd of over 30,000 will be half decent. But 40,000 would be a better promotion of our game in New Zealand. What a pity that 40,000 looks unlikely.

Given the stadium holds 35,000, you'd be hard pressed to get 40,000.

Unless thousands climb on the roof, as happened at the SCG in 1965.

Anyway, 30,000 in a 35,000 stadium won't look too bad.

Australia by how many?

New Zealand cut out silly penalties, they'll win this

Stadium looks about two-thirds full therefore a capacity of around 35,000 would indicate a bona fide attendance of around 24,000. It goes without saying that the officially announced attendance may well differ.

Aussies have started way better than the Kiwis who can consider themselves fortunate to be trailing by only 6 points.

Not sure - Australia are looking like scoring everytime they get it in the NZ half. NZ just don't.

Yes they do!

What a set that was. Australia flying in with the tackles, some huge hits and NZ go and score a great try.

Hope England are watching. New Zealand showing no respect to oz. Unlike is who just accept been taken late 20 seconds after kick

Holy **** what a bomb that was. Possibly the best I've ever seen.

England are a failed entity in this tournament and in international RL.

There is no place for them in this thread.
