Great win for the All Blacks!!

Posted by: Engelbert on 16 October 2011

My word, what a terrific team!

In spite of the two best players in trouble (Dan Carter out completely with a groin injury and skipper Richie McCaw under-par with a foot injury) the AB's performed incredibly well against lack-lustre Australia.

I expect the French will get a good seeing-off next weekend.

All Blacks - I salute you!

PS I do feel sorry for Wales - a good team but out of luck this RWC. The same can't be said of England - pitiful effort on and off the field.

And another great win for the All Blacks against France!

Kiwis will be pleased to have the Rugby World Cup back in their hands after 24 years.

Deadlifter, seems you are a French Fan Boy mole.

The best team in the tournament won. Fullstop, end of story.

You also moaned about crap refereeing. Yes I agree, but at least there was nothing controversial that changed the score line. Joubert was very relaxed about ruck infringements, lazy running and really only started to pick up on deliberate slowing of the game in the last quarter. The game was stifled a bit as a result, which both teams picked up on and exploited to the max.

All Blacks - World Champions!

Yes i was supporting the French [they being northern hemispere] and yes the All Blacks deserved to win the World Cup on the whole but not on that game

The ref was lax on dangerous play as well unlike Rolland in the Welsh game
