NZF should just
say fuck it and play the game in Wellington. Same team, same chunk of
Phoenix players at our tried and true home ground. Win there, then do
the same for the home play off. Done.
Taking these Oceania games around the country is bullshit, theyre not going to now get a crowd anywhere that Wellington wont be able to beat.
This.
I actually agree, but if you're suggesting that
playing in Christchurch had anything to do with how woeful we were
tonight, that's going to be a tough yarn to spin.
Im not blaming Chch, but i think we should now be doing what we can to reduce any kind of risk. We've taken two games away, and its not like we've had a recent AWs game here anyway. Auckland have had more.... It'll keep half the squad in the same city theyre already based in. NC wont be easy.
