I do enjoy That Marto consistently thinks that football in the UK and football in NZ are directly comparable.
It's all supply and demand. I daresay they demand for that sharkty UK game was higher, and supply would have definitely been lower. Supply for AW's is basically infinite, and demand is therefore low in comparison, which makes $31 seem pricey.
If 3000 people in a ground holding significantly more is "high demand" then what do you class AB, Premiership games etc Patrick?
.... regarding Rufer, I'm guessing the AWs need a full squad and given we've decimated the Nix starting XI already, it's easier to pick a player in a pro environment who would already be free to play and would cost little to be involved, vs the likes of James etc who would have to be flown out from USA/Europe to bench warm, as I'm sure that's all that Rufer will be doing.
