The Octagon is starting to fill and the atmosphere is ramping up ahead of the second Bledisloe Cup test in Dunedin tonight. Dozens of fans have started gathering at the bars and restaurants in the central city ahead of the 7.35pm kick-off. Smatterings of Australian fans are out and about, and in a jubilant mood. Many of the Australians are in Dunedin for their first test or visit and are loving the city's vibe. We come over every year for 12 years [for the Bledisloe Cup] and we haven't come back with any success and we aren't expecting any tonight.
