    Wellington's Hospitality scene says it will feel the loss of this year's two All Black's test matches

    Wellington's Hospitality scene says it will feel the loss of this year's two All Black's test matches


    They were originally set down for August 28 against Australia, and September 18 against Argentina.

    The pause on the travel bubble has seen those tests scrapped, with the Australian clash moving to Auckland, and the Argentinian game going across the Tasman.

    D4 bar owner Dermot Murphy says some businesses may have been counting on them.

    He says it will be a big loss, and many places may have been banking on the two matches especially after the jump back to Alert Level Two last month.
