Australian Rugby / RA

Would the Italian players change jerseys but not ends at half time?

Maybe some Turks could sub in for them...

We could also split the Vichy French and Republicans between the two sides. Not sure what to do with the Russians. Did the heavy lifting up until Yalta and the went a bit skewiff... Plenty of Georgians in the mix

This has nothing to do with NZRU or Kiwis protecting the integrity of ANZAC Day or taking a moral stance against commercialism.. 25k kiwis at the NZ Warriors match is proof they are just as hungry as Aussies to attend sporting events on ANZAC Day.. So let's drop that argument

Reality is, NZRU are a conservative organisation who don't like change unless the $$ are significant enough for them to justify it.. And the value mustn't have added up for them on this..

Well, we keep hearing about how the ABs are the befall and end all of NZ Rugby. Surely another opportunity to derive revenues from them would appeal. Or is their objection based on its one of our ideas.

there objection is that the idea isn't as valuable to them as it is to RA and if it were to be implemented it would be a home and away series... whilst states in Australia will pay $million to host this test boosting the value of it, that wouldn't happen in NZ
