Must have been good for the economy somehow Marc ......lots of folk that would never have made the trip are now signing the praises of NZ back in their home towns...hopefully

Ya 2 ring-ins....Pocock and Cooper cost ya the game....maybe the Wobbillies should pick a few more Aussies....that Saffie Pocock played like a true redhead and Dingo Deans should have pulled Cooper as soon as he kicked the ball out on the full at the beginning....the Blacks should wallop the French pigs....I wonder if they'ill have a Rainbow Warrior there?

What an awesome side...it wouldn't have been right if they didn't win. Their forwards were the key hammering us with unrelelnting pressure preventing the Wallabies from creating any set play. Richie and Corey Jane were magnificent. Oh...and Quade Coopers dumb chip kicks and stupid passes made it tough for his team mates to move forward but it wasn't all his fault. We just weren't good enough.

All in all the Wallabies will improve over the next 4 years...they're young. We won the League though!

the clearly rigged outcome

That's a bit unfair Marc.....there was a lot of blood spilt from both sides tonight....they were as fair dinkum as any game I've ever seen.

That was one of the hardest games I've seen in years. Pity Nonu didnt fire and when replaced by SBW I thought yeahhh but true to the mentatity of a league play got himself sitting on the bench 
Firko credit to your boys for a hard fought game but you cant win them all. 
I pity the French. I wouldnt want to be in their shoes right now. All the years they have stuff us up is going to cost them big time and that time will be next Sunday.

Too many mistakes in the rucks Boy's and that's what cost you the game.
It was a hard game and great defence by both sides.

Pretty sad comment Marc fx, should learn to be a better loser. ;Dfkn ha ha

cheers Dale.

One word.  Intensity.  That's what won NZ that game.  Well Done to them. 

On the Wales red card thing...  speaking as an accreditied Rugby touch judge, I can assure you that a Red card for a seriously dangerous tackle (even if accidental) is MANDATED by the rule book.  The ref should be lauded for his ability to play the rulebook as it is written and not bow to the weight of a crowd or occasion.   That tackle could have ended VERY badly for the tackled player.  The Red card in the ref's pocket is there for JUST THAT VERY REASON.

On the other hand, poor old Sonny Bill was pretty hard done by....

Suzuki43 sighted tonight packing scrums with Reuben Thorne in Auckland.

Sends his regards to his mates on the forum, and to the
Boys who keep on raking the muck back up about him.

Hey Dale I have both citizenships so was always going to win.  .... regardless I think the IRB should dip into there pockets and cover the cost of there own events..... the Government goes along with it.....bread and circus's

As for Suzuki 43 packing down the scrums with Reuben ..... hes a squirrel gripper from way back and would have a finger up your date before the 5 minute mark.
