Wonder if last paragraph might have some influence on where Nix look to base themselves in Oz. Leaves open some possibility of at least hosting the likes of Glory, Adelaide and maybe Roar in NZ late 2021/early 2022 - even if the Nix themselves don't fully return to NZ until a full TT bubble is open later on.

So pretty much same as what happened with Western United & Glory games end of last season. Again you'd likely get some bumper ROF/Eden Park crowds at least.

Deputy Prime Minister Grant Robertson said vaccination rates would be crucial when the trans-Tasman bubble was next reviewed in late November – but could give no guarantee it would resume before Christmas.

“Sitting here from the perspective of today, it doesn't feel like a very likely outcome that we would start again in eight weeks, but we want to make sure that we've got the ability to reassess it then.”

Robertson said the Government would consider if the bubble could reopen to certain states with a strong track record of containing Covid, such as Western Australia, when it was reviewed in November.
