All Blacks promise fans ‘a show’

THE All Blacks have vowed to repay fans with an entertaining style of rugby against Ireland after they were mobbed for a second straight day in Taranaki.

An All Blacks fan day at Yarrow Stadium drew an estimated 2,000 people who packed the back grounds as the players held coaching sessions and signed autographs.

Captain Richie McCaw held the tackle bags for some keen youngsters and half the All Blacks squad held a mass coaching clinic for a group of promising U20 players.
