    Damn right! Can you imagine paying at the high end of that to watch England and SA play again.... :mad:

    But then.....it could be Ireland NZ :)

    Time to lay of the Turps and save a bit of money....

    (The group/qualifying prices are good though!)

    Its just for the final though. Its an "event", people will pay that regardless of the quality of the rugby. There are only 25000 tickets going on public sale as well so I'd say they'll be snapped up quickly (not by me mind!).

    Amazing considering that a Currie Cup match ticket costs €4.50 according to one poster a while back.

    In fairness, the group games are actually quite cheap. Its the biggest rugby game of a four-year period - I'm amazed anyone is surprised by the price. Not to mention that its the only way NZ can make any money outta this.

    Lot of money for the locals, luckily their team wont be playing(maybe).

    Anyone else go to NZ for the 05 Lions? Would have little or no faith in them delivering a well run tournament.

    The point I forgot to make was how are Saffers going to afford that?

    15 Euro (30NZD) for a standard ticket for a group games is pretty reasonable though. Prices for the final are going to be ramped up wherever it is.
