OK i am going to focus on casting spells to see if it helps.
Not that I know any spells, but I will try anything.

Being the Wicked Witch of Oz must carry some weight.

Nothing wrong with the ref......21 :3....bit of a difference to go blaming the ref over 3 points really

All Blacks - world cup champions - 2015



ETA: The Wallabies came out in the 2nd half super-strong to bring it within 4 points at one stage (21-17) - a testament to both teams being at the top of their game.

Brilliant match right to the end.

Now, back to beer and celebrations - I'm very proud of both teams.

What a disgraceful performance by Australia.
nothing else needs to be said.

They could restore their honour by committing seppuku.

As for the forward pass NZ did that was missed.....stewing.



Sorry, Rugby...

One must really familiarise themselves with the Ruies.

Great game, the australian (sic) 15 looked good against the New Zealand 14, but otherwise they were outclassed. No one else could play that way on this day.

Chur.

One is familiar with the rules. The ball must travel backwards out of the players hands, but can move forward through the air, due to basic physics.

NZ had wept in 07 against france due to a Forward pass rule that sent them out in a semi. Short memory.
I also congratulated the all blacks and called them one of the best teams of all time.....Gee whizz no need to be rude.

Congratulations to the Kiwi's, the better team won !

Also congrats to the Aussies - you were not disgraced - just outplayed by a great outfit.

We must also remember - Rugby is a religion in NZ - whereas in Oz its ARL or AFL that are the predominant codes.

No need for any angst ...

Easy up Digger, everyone can benefit from looking at the rules and gaining insight. Cripes! For the record, I didn't complain about the 07 game. The better team won on the day.

Cheika has done some good work with his team. Not his turn this time though.

As I said above, the aussie 15 looked strong against the All Blacks 14, but no team could have beaten them on that day. They were hungrier, more professional (David Pocock stomping on McCaw's head, anyone?) and consistently unfazed.

Pretty awesome, from the World's best Rugby team.

The stats tell the story. Southern Hemisphere rugby is in a class of its own.
