It has been probably been raised but the All Blacks v Wallabies Test in Dunedin is on at 12:35pm AEST on 5th August.
Not sure this is great scheduling for those who like to attend their local Colts and Club team's games.

I’m not sure how many 1st/2nd graders or supporters will be tuning in either considering it’s the last round and a number of teams will be needing to win to make finals. Probably want to keep focussed on their own game.

Out of interest do Shute Shield have games that day?

I mean it’s sucks for Australian fans, but at the same time RA don’t control NZRugby scheduling of home test matches, i dont think this is one you can have a crack at RA for

Brad Wilkin starting for Easts this weekend

Told everyone this earlier this week.

Australia rugby was going to do a back flip about rep players turning out… the rugby community is pretty pissed off with Phil Waugh double standards about sending players back to 3rd tier

I was only making an educated guess warhose… I suspect the fact those young men playing roughly 5 games in 2 weeks had the players union up in arms about making sure no one was forced into playing hence the mandated rest break
