Default The difference between Lions and All Blacks Fans

On the news last night they said that despite 1000's of Lion fans in chch last night there were less arrests and less hospital admitions than a normal saturday. (Mind you the terrible weather may have contributed to it as well).

I made a rare visit into central christchurch on Sunday and the place was swarming in people with red jackets. Funny as all the locals would be out in the malls, only the tourists were in the city. They were overwhelmingly male and middle aged.

It was a miserable couple of days to be a tourist in chch.

I think Umanga should miss the next tests based on the video of the spear tackle. It would be good for public relations, and its obvious the AllBlacks would win without him anyway.

Otherwise the next tests are going to be mere formalities without much excitement.

Maybe we could even up the teams more by having the All Blacks tie one leg behind their backs as well :)
