All Blacks take on Fiji again tomorrow night

From Morning Report, 7:44 am on 16 July 2021

The All Blacks take on Fiji in the second and final test of their series tomorrow night and after last week's record effort by Fiji, and with Tonga and Samoa playing a World Cup qualifier as part of a double header, fans finally seem engaged enough to fork out for tickets.

The game is close to a sell out, with 25,000 supporters expected to descend on Waikato Stadium in Kirikirioa.

The game will be used to help spread the message of Covid-19 vaccination in Fiji, as the country fights to control an outbreak of the virus.
