To be honest i think people are still paranoid about being out in big numbers, catching buses and trains with a lot of people in them or even a few. I can only speak from where i am Western Sydney - people are still waring mask even though its been quite safe with no out breaks. I don't know how relaxed the Auckland public are compared to us or Wellingtonians for that matter so truth be told it could possibly cost the club heaps if fk all show up.
Does anyone know what the crowds were like with Rugby lately(Games in

As some one who's been on the front line of this Pandemic in Europe from day dot it makes me laugh that people in Aus and NZ are scared of public transport for a disease less common then any other affliction suffered in the Antipodes. More chance of being in a plane crash flying to the game then getting SARS CoV-02.
I fully understand the thinking in Europe and especially India at this point in time but Australasia, c'mon!
50,000 people at Eden Park the other day for a concert, 200,000 people were at Cuba dupa a couple of weeks ago which was a record, record attendances at armagedon too.
I think it's safe to say that while people are weary, that extends to using the contact tracing app, not stopping going to events.
For public transport masks are the rules simply because we've had outbreaks on a bus before and contact tracing is hard in such an environment. It's purely logistics.
