Crowd looks around 11,000 .... not good ( from a guy sitting at home, 10mins drive from the ground).

Get to the game!!

 

[Billythekid]

Hope it fills out a tiny bit more. Really embarrassing crowd and a terrible all round look for the international game.

 

[Arucard]

Pathetic turn out from the Kiwi public.
No excuses can justify this.
Complain they never play at home, when they do they don’t show up and cost the governing body much needed funds.
Pathetic.

 

[playdaball]

Get to the game!!

Should be but so disappointed with the Kiwis and NZRL over last couple of years, as are many long term supporters

The shot of the grandstand on 9
Test football doesn't deserve this...

You have no right to complain you don’t get to see them when our fortunes turn then.
Plastic fan.

Next weekend will be pure magic I guess? An upside?

Agreed. Very disappointing when all it takes is a few hours out of your day to attend.
Not sure of the answer but it’s s sad sight.

Unfortunately my fellow countrymen have no national pride. Pathetic.

 

[Burns]

Australia still don’t have a major sponsor do they? How?

I'm hoping so. For FTA I think it's only on GEM according to ebroadcast TV guide

 

[baggygreen man]

Expect our brilliant backline to run riot.

There’s plenty of pride for the All Blacks & Cricketers.
Maybe the split of Tongan players away from the Kiwis has hurt?

No idea. The general apathy towards the international game and the lack of games played most likely doesn’t help.

Surely an Australian game can make the main channel.

 

[Exsilium]

Good to see it sold out.

International rugby league is the winner today

The Kiwi public can never be bothered turning up for our games. Has nothing to do with the the Tongan side.

 

[baggygreen man]

The Haka gives Kiwis a distinct morale advantage imho. We should invent our own version of a battle cry .

 

[insert.pause]

Probably end up a lower crowd than majority of warriors games, just pathetic when NZRL have been crying out for home tests. Can kiss that wish goodbye for another few years after tonight.

 

[baggygreen man]

Where are the Aussies.. outnumbered here by Kiwis
