Seem to have turned a corner albeit tonight’s victory was a little controversial.
One year to go - France still favourites with Ireland.

watched it in full crazy game and very unusual decision

We are far from the old NZ Finny. Far.

I wouldn’t get too excited about Ireland. They never turn up at World Cups.

Abel what for you think of the time wasting call

RIP Eddie Butler btw.
Him together with Brian Moore were the best commentators by a mile.

They were warned three times to get on with it. I was pleased NZ won.

I think it was the huddle that annoyed the ref as you say it was a clear warning

 

[Abel Tasman]

Yep controversial but ref was entitled to stop the tactics of running down of the clock illegally. Tough titty.

Bledisloe Cup is generally over a number of games (2 or 3) with the overall 'winner' of the games taking the cup (if its a draw the holder keeps it, bit like the Ryder Cup)

Yes. We won the Bledisloe Cup today Jedi because we were the holders and with todays win Australia can only draw the series.

Thats for sure Abel
They won’t have to be the ‘old’ NZ though eh?

On a separate note - do you no anything about the Te Araroa Trail - My lad and his girlfriend start in in mid Oct. Looks frickin mad to me.
Just being a worried parent
