An article on Stuff about it.
Council has only back stage 1 of Eden Park's upgrades apparently.
Disappointing but not surprising that the wrong decision (in my opinion) has been made once again. I thought when it became clear that the decsion in the lead up to RWC 2011 to stick with Eden Park was the wrong one, that they'd not make the same mistake twice...I was wrong
I guess giving out free tickets to councillors really works!

Lol, this country can't seem to do anything ambitious can it?
Doesn't Eden Park Trust also owe around $50 million to the Auckland Council?
Personally I don't see how a few All Blacks tests and Super Rugby is going to pay that bill, but have at it. 🤷♂️
