[QUOTE="TRF_stormer2010, post: 1054039, member: 39190"] So Brisbane it is. I'm just glad its going ahead TBH. Just a weird location to be holding the 100th SA v NZ match but in these circumstances I'll tak eit! Excited to play against Aus and NZ both and its more to do with the scarcity of these matches than anything else. Think there is an argument to be made that we should play each other only every 2nd year or add more teams to the RC (Japan and Fiji) and play each other only once. Argentina has added a lot of spice over the years. I mean in 2019 we faced NZ twice, then in the RWC pools and it was one match away from facing them in the final which would've been our 4th tie for the year which is just ludicrous. Less of these games would also give the opportunity for more matches against the likes of say Georgia, Uruguay, USA or whoever might conceivably benefit the most off more exposure to tier 1 teams.
