AB and SA matches sold out quickly a while ago.
Tickets left for Australia and even more forJapan.
I maanage international tickets for my club and have been receiving lots of "special offers" for the last two matches
Paper this morning saying there were tickets available for all 4 yesterday and they were only confident of an SA sellout.

I know most of my mates that are pretty regular in attending have cut back massively due to the cost
That surprises me as I couldn't get additional tickets for AB's and SA having received far more applications than our allocations
The cost is now ridiculous. It's the thick end of a £500 day out for the AB match if you buy Premium tickets at £190 (£160 for RFU club affiliates) and take into account travel costs and food and drink.
I haven't been to a Twickenham international for 6 or 7 years and I can guarantee myself the tickets :lol:
Much rather do the Premiership Final nowadays.

Yup, I didn’t take any of my debentures up here for the Autumn Internationals and only Ireland (I’ll have other tickets for Wales) for the 6N as I just can’t justify the cost.

A very very quiet NZ anthem. And then the Go Compare English anthem at double the volume.

Sport is meant to be theatre. One side laying down a challenge let the other side answer and walk it down if they want.

So long as it is kept within reason like the rugby league last week it is only a good thing.

It's so watered down in union now. Right lads, let them lay down their challenge but don't dare get intense and get within x metres of them.

Too easy. All from a dumb penalty back on the half.

He showed him the outside, if you do that you have to have the pace to back it up, a prop isn't going to catch a winger in that situation, or shouldn't if the winger has anything about them

Forwards stodging up midfield is not working

Update. In both attack and defense.
