Air NZ Cup ....preferences??

Question

Obviously the test match on Saturday night means it would not be possible to play an Air NZ Cup game on Saturday night (for TV reasons).

To cater for this, there will instead be two games on played Thursday night (Tasman v Bay of Plenty and Northland v Waikato) rather than just 1 as there normally would be.

So my question is this: Would it be better to have played the extra game on Sunday afternoon? Your thoughts please.

Answer 1

there are already games scheduled for saturday arfternoon - 230 and 430 and sunday afternoon. Guess they could have had the 2nd thursday night game on sunday arvo at 430 but I guess its all about the ratings.  

Answer 2

Yes, Saturday afternoon.  I'm getting sick and tired of night time rugby. Tests, ANZC, adnd Super 14.

Answer 3

Yeah one of the games should have been moved for the purists who like to watch them all. I would move the Northland Waikato game.It's just another reason daytime rugby is dying evan though it's far better to watch.
