Now time for the last minute chats before the game starts tonight.
The Kiwi's ready for the HAKA! KAMATE!!!!
Out of 17 ANZAC Tests, Kiwi's have only won 2!
National Anthems being sung, and as always, gotta love that Kiwi anthem. Rock version too! That's a bit exciting!
The fireworks go off at Canberra. Drums by the Army. Good run out by both teams.
G'day. The Aussies led out by the 2nd man to make it to 50 tests for Australia, Cameron Smith, only second to Darren Lockyer.
Kia Ora. The Kiwi's walk out onto the field, flames along the sides of the tunnel.
Tarantosaurus Tip: Australia by 14. I see Australia running over New Zealand. Normally a close game, but tonight I just see the speeds of Ferguson and Holmes on the wings flying past the NZ squad. Jordan Rapana should make a decent impact for New Zealand, but not sure if it will be enough to carry the team towards the line.
In Canberra, this will be a game worth watching, Australia's super stars, including the return of Johnathan Thurston, against a half-young, half-old but experienced Kiwi's Star Studded side. Both sides will go well tonight, but Australia do look like the dominant side on paper. We won't know what happens until Kick-Off...
Both teams are 1-17 from Late Mail.
Cameron Smith tonight celebrates his 50TH game for Australia! In other words, he's old.
Hello and welcome to the ANZAC Test between Australia and New Zealand! I'm your live updater, Tarantosaurus, here to give you the game... live.
