Families being lured to All Blacks v Fiji

The Rugby Union is going all out to get families along to tomorrow night's All Blacks match against Fiji at North Harbour Stadium.

The NZRU is offering 'family friendly tickets' for the match on the embankment priced at $20 for adults and $5 for children with school identification.

"This is the only test the All Blacks will play prior to taking on the British & Irish Lions and will offer a great insight into how the team is shaping up ahead of the Lions Series", said the NZRU.

"It is also a great opportunity for Auckland fans who missed out on tickets to the All Blacks test against the Lions at Eden Park to experience test match rugby this year."

The test will see three players don the All Blacks jersey for the first time – wing Sitiveni Sivivatu, hooker Derren Witcombe and lock James Ryan – while two other newcomers, fullback Sosene Aseni and prop Campbell Johnstone are on the bench.

All Blacks coach Graham Henry has called on supporters to get behind the team.

"This is a Test match against a side that performed admirably last week against the New Zealand Maori. They will require our full attention, and we would greatly appreciate a large home crowd to support the All Blacks in their first home test of the year," he said.

North Harbour Rugby Union chief executive Noel Coom urged fans to get to the game.

"We want a great crowd at North Harbour Stadium tomorrow to make sure the boys get off to a great start to the season before the huge challenges ahead against the Lions.

"Make sure you show your support. North Harbour Stadium is up close and personal to the action - so make sure your kids are a part of it," he said.
