Hmmm I agree lots of things could've been managed better, and i'm sure any of you complaining would have done a much better job (especially the ones that didnt even go - note the sarcasm). For the ones that did go and their experience "sucked" I'm sorry to hear you got caught up in the crap of things, but overall it was a good night, it was a first BIG BIG night not only Auckland but NZ! I had 4 teens and 1 ten yr old in toe, we arrived by public transport, stayed for 10 hours got home at midnight and we did just fine enjoying an awesome night with fellow supporters and visitors. The only disappointing thing I see now, is all the moaning and carrying on.. build a bridge people and get over it.. what did you expect? a red carpet with golden gates with a pathway to a perfect seat? If you did then you should've stayed home.. seriously, we have several weeks to showcase our country and all you can do is moan, and you lot from overseas.. pfft typical! so Chill out NZ! oh and a Big Ups to the hard work going on out there.. Some of us appreciate the Massive Job you have to do for the next 7 weeks! but most of all "Go the All Blacks!" :)

I was there lined up at 12am and didn't get in until 5pm!Seriously the security for Queens wharf was not great at all I assume it was due to the short number of staff as they could not handle the crowd going into the Wharf and some inconsiderate people did not care much about the young children who were in the crowd. Although there was a long wait to get in and out and the transportation service, it was not worth it all all. Next time I will snuggle up at home and watch it live.
