Goodbye Bledisloe forever

After you win it back this year? Most pumped I've been for the Bled in years. There's only two tests and the Eddie-factor, he loves beating the All Blacks more than anything I reckon. Hope the Wallabies can stay injury-free so we get a cracking contest.

First test is at the MCG too, imagine if they sold it out and won.

Well at least the neighbors will know who won just check at the end whether there is lots of cheering or booing and you will know cause damn a 100,000 plus people is a lot of noise

True - where’s the NZ test? If they’re in Wellington and Suncorp we’re toast.

for sure. though my main thing is an ABs game under that roof is also on my list, and thatd be a fucking cracker either way

There's only two tests

That's the problem. If it were three I think the Wallabies take it 2-1, but two means the ABs can squeeze out a flukey win to draw the series and keep the cup.
