Kangaroos vs Kiwis Test Match

[kiwileaguefan]

less than 5K tickets remain for Aus v NZ Test match in Newcastle on Oct 16. Majority of these are GA non-alcohol

From NRL marketing manager..

Got my ticket already. Will be in the Andrew Johns Stand

New Zealand have made unbelievable progress the last 5 years and have amazing depth. An Australia vs New Zealand 3 Test Series can blow up and be equal if not better then State of Origin.
Very much off topic my response but well done to the people of Newcastle. Its going to be a great clash.

 

[Coastbloke]

Fantastic..

We had difficulties getting the tickets we wanted a week after they went on sale to the general public..

Well done Newcastle..

 

[andrew057]

I got my 2 tickets a few days after they went on sale, cant wait.

 

[Gurdy]

What is capacity at Newcastle????

 

[yakstorm]

The got 30,729 to their match against Souths which was a sell out, so you'd think around 32K...

 

[Raiderdave]

yeah , they'll crack 30K for this game on Sunday week

should rate its tits off too
good stuff

 

[Matua]

Sweet awesome stuff Newcastle.

I don't get how Sydney can't sell out test matches, especially now that the Kiwis have some of the worlds best players running out regularly.

 

[Fast Eddie]

Btw andrew057 you should change your signature pic.

 

[hitman82]

That's fantastic news, should be a great atmosphere for a brutal game.

Agreed. I've been bemused by it for a while.

Good to see Newcastle showing up the useless people of Sydney.

On the ProTicket site:
Single seats only for Cat 1
Single seats only for Cat 2 Alcohol Free
Other Cat 2's are selling into the corners
General Admission Sold Out

It's going to look great on TV

 

[Billythekid]

Hopefully the weather stays alright and we will see a packed house. It's great for the game in Newcastle.

Hopefully they advertise it a bit and it rates well on tv too.

Because to the neutral sport fans, International Rugby League is almost non existent. Things will change though I think

People think it's a joke because Australia always win. As NZ start to win more regularly this will make the NZ v Aus rivalry much stronger.

The most important thing for the International game though is to have a competitive England. Right now everyone views the game outside of Aus and NZ as a joke.

If England were to become competitive on a regular basis i think Int RL would grow very fast.

 

[NRL-TGG]

I think England will come good over the next 5 years.

They have goals and hopefully they can get there, the home World Cup is important for them. AS is the Wembley game this year.
