So was unsure to make this Thread in the International section, but I was more curious on the local reaction.
I posted in the confirmation thread of the Australia v Tonga Test, that ticket sales are showing we are very close to a sell out.
See here: http://premier.ticketek.co.nz/shows...LTickets&utm_medium=Web&utm_campaign=2018Test
Prices for that Test are not to different to the upcoming Australia v New Zealand Test. Gold covered (upper tier on both sides) are $60 for an adult, where as the Kiwi test is $56 for similar tickets.

The Kiwi Test is just under 5 weeks away. Not all tickets are available for purchase and, well, maybe they wont need to be. Huge section of the upper tier are unsold. From the information available, there may be under 5,000 sold for the first Australia v New Zealand Test since the 2014 Four Nations Final.
In comparison, the Tonga Test is tracking towards a sell out and has tickets available on the North Embankment.
Now, this probably isn't shocking news and is expected. But should the NZRL be concerned about the current sales for the Kiwi match? Does this highlight how obvious the decision should be to play Tonga every single year?
What do you think the crowd will be for the Kiwi match? What should the crowd be?

All things considered, I think the Kiwi's could win this match. Australia will have a new fullback, five eight, halfback and hooker. Very vulnerable.
