Clayton McMillan for All Blacks coach.
Ireland are going to win this Saturday, and are a good chance to win the series.

Ireland has a good shot. Can they break the Eden Park hoodoo...?

Just watched the highlights, quite surprised to see only 9,000 in the stands. I thought rugby was more popular in New Zealand.

Mr Kipling,
Probably half of them Irish supporters...
Cold, mid-week, super expensive, and live on TV. Plus, I suspect, everyone knew it would be a second string Irish side without its superstars.
And lots of covid in NZ, of course.
