Why are All Blacks vs Wallabies tickets not selling well?

From Checkpoint, 5:29 pm on 13 August 2021

Tickets to what could be the All Blacks last home test of the year are being given away.

The All Blacks are due to play the Wallabies this Saturday at Auckland's Eden Park, its second game in the three-test Bledisloe series.

A freeze on the Quarantine Free travel with Australia meant the schedule was re-jigged with two games a week apart in Auckland before the All Blacks head to Perth, with an unknown return day due to games in the US and UK and MIQ constraints.

Today SKY customers are being offered a two for one ticket deal for tomorrow's game, underlining slow sales.

So who is actually going to the game? Reporter Louise Ternouth hit the streets to find out.

Chief executive of Eden Park, Nick Sautner, talks to Lisa Owen.
