Wrap up for Cup showdown

Victor Vito's little boy Karlos has the right idea for tonight's big game - wrap up well. The 7-month-old was at Eden Park yesterday with his dad ahead of the Bledisloe Cup clash between the All Blacks and Australia.

Forecasters say grab a raincoat and take a beanie if you're one of the thousands of fans at the ground.

The match, which kicks off at 7.35pm, is set to be a stunner.

It's the All Blacks' last game on home soil before the 2015 Rugby World Cup in Britain.

The All Blacks' 34-strong string of wins at the Eden Park fortress will come under pressure after the Steve Hansen-coached side was outplayed by the Wallabies in the 27-19 defeat last weekend in Sydney.

Here's what you need to know:

Tickets: Sold out but can be found on websites such as Trade Me and Viagogo. There were more than 30 tickets on Trade Me from $150 for one to $700 for three. Tickets on resale site Viagogo ranged from $212 to a hefty $1114.70.

Weather: Take a raincoat if you're not in a box or under cover. The forecast is for occasional rain, with southwesterlies and cool at 10-11C.

Transport: Special event buses will run with free transport for people with game tickets. Keep your ticket for the ride home. Services are operating to Eden Park from the city centre, North Shore, Manukau, Botany, Pakuranga, Takapuna, Newmarket and Mt Eden.

Spectators can also travel on trains from three hours before the match until the end of the service, with additional trains and shuttles operating. See at.govt.nz for a full list.

Food: Eden Park is still in a controlled area for the Queensland fruit fly. Ministry for Primary Industries spokesman Andrew Sander said disposal bins for uneaten fresh produce would be around the venue. MPI's advice was to avoid taking any fresh produce to eat at the game.

Take photos: Particularly of All Blacks Richie McCaw, Keven Mealamu, Dan Carter, Conrad Smith, Tony Woodcock and Ma'a Nonu. It could be their last test in New Zealand.

Ground entertainment:

Pre-game: About 7pm Stan Walker and six dancers perform a 15-minute set. Nick Afoa sings the Kiwi anthem and Rebecca Nelson the Australian.

The two teams run on together to mark the centenary of the Anzacs.

After the match: All Blacks skipper Richie McCaw will receive a special jersey marking his 142nd world record-breaking test appearance before the Bledisloe Cup is presented.
