I was considering flying out from NZ !!

But ill have to settle for tv.

Does anyone know if its being shown in the UK?

I guess some sort of negotiotions were in progress last time I read, may be you can send Sky an email and find out, don't have an email adress fo you though, unfortunately.

Hopefully, we'll get coverage via ESPN Star / Ten Sports over here, no mentions still by either of them, but sometimes they just show things out of the blue, so fingers crossed. I do think they won't miss out on broadcasting such a match. So I'm hopefull.

Boy we'd better get some sort of a telecast, I'm going to be eternally furious otherwise.

BBC reports 20,000 tickets sold already (1100GMT, 4 January). This is great. Let's hope for a complete sell out.

i'll be travelling up from the bush to see this great cause unfold. Let's all remember what it is for and give as much as you can (and then a bit more).
