Um, you know, South Africa's not uh the richest of nations and um when you've you're you you're asking to um, you know, shell out a lot of money for, you know, uh
A local B team versus the All Blacks.
Um, it just becomes something that's a little squeezed out.
I mean, Durban was bucketing down for the last for the two days' price.
They might have got a little bit of a uh a warm-up.
I know it's Loftus Verzfeld on the weekend.
They got a decent warm up crowd for uh warm up uh yeah, uh walk up crowd rather from what they were expecting because the conditions were so good um weather wise.
So um, but again, I know for the Lions game, which is is almost an
Afterthought now sandwiched between the first and second test next week.
They've reduced tickets already to try and get some people through the gate.
So they are worried about it.
But I think they're probably in a couple of years' time or when they look to come back in 2034, potentially gonna have to review the way uh they do this because yeah, it was a bit of a shame that um those games um haven't quite you know set the atmosphere as much as you would have liked, like even in the stage.
Stadium, you you don't feel like there's a uh an all blacks um, you know, style atmosphere.
It's very been rather flat, even you know, the Bulls was expected to be like that.
They're very passionate about the Bulls and in Pretoria, but the All Blacks kind of um shut them out of the game, you know, twenty four nil at half times.
There was no real passion behind that either.
And I think it's been one of the things that's been a shame from the series is that we haven't quite got that um that that big atmosphere as yet.
But uh again
with the the next three weeks, uh that'll be well catered for, I'm sure.
Josh Morby will start on the on the left wing.
