Kick off at 0930.

That'll get massive viewing figures worldwide then....

NOT!

Am still annoyed that NZ got the World Cup this time round. I think if it was going to go to the Pacific Rim, Japan should have got it. Rugby needs to expand. Playing in NZ isn't going to help promote the game to a wider audience. Rugby needed this World Cup to be seen by more people.

I'm trying to work it out now! I think it's on at 8:30pm in NZ, south africa is 10 hrs behind NZ - so 10:30am for us, and you guys are an hour behind us - so 9:30am for you?

Of course , having the rugby world cup in Japan would make about as much sense as holding the football world cup in Qatar

Get over it.

20:30pm NZ time is 09:30 UK time. Daylight savings starts here 25th Sept at which point our clocks go forward 1 hour.

Absolutely bonkers in Akl yesterday and I would expect today to be insane - brilliant atmosphere and all the haters can fuk off and do something else.

ABs choking in Japan would just be business as usual though. Choking in NZ? That's going to be something special.

I will just put it on in the studio, our work is mainly within sports marketing so it is just research really ๐Ÿ˜‰

Exactly what I am doing. Just about to head off to Makara for a blustery night ride.

I'm getting so sick of hearing about the RWC. At first I was quite looking forward to it but now I just hope the AB's fail spectacularly.
