    If the unthinkable happens. I won't talk - possibly for days. I will probably manage to go on Fern to congratulate the Aussies but I will avoid radio, TV and every other outlet for the rabid whingers. Telling everyone that it's only a game and not believing if for a moment.<br><br>
    I'll get over it pretty quickly though. By Xmas I should be coming right.</p></blockquote>

    <p>worst one i (vaguely) remember was an NPC semi Waikato v Counties.. we were spanking them. Buck Anderson was the ground MC and was on the mic telling people what time the final was on at the ground next week.</p>

    <p>We were on the terraces counting up how many tickets we'd need to buy for the final the following week. :shock:</p>

    Just wanting to clarify that the 2am RWC final time in the Foxtel Guide is actually 2am across the whole of Aussie ...stuck question mark button...glue mishap thingy...I know there will be an hour of pre-game stuff and kick off will be 3am but am concerned that the actual times will be an hour earlier<strong> here in Qld. </strong></p></blockquote>

    2am kick off here

    2am kick offs are a pain. You need a lot of brownie points in the bank when you slide back into bed at 4 and are keen for a celebratory root.

    I'm really wanting to support the Taipans, but a team that has both Worthington and Loughton, NO WAY. Happy for Starks though. Thought both he and Craig played awesome. Big fan of both Tragardh and Glindon also. Cam is an efficient offensive player and Glindon can play both ends. <br><br>
    Loving the NBL this season. Have watched every game. The quality has gone up a few notches.

    <p>I've been drinking at the Halloween Street party here in Ye Olde Sydney Town and successfully trying to forget about the biggest rugby game on the planet. My wife's slinky sorceress costume is worth a mention there.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Its just after 11 here - game starts in 4 hours. I don't think I'm going to make it, but know my body clock with slap me in the head around 4AM and tell me to get up. </p>

    <p>Yeah bro, <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>2am kick off for QLD</strong></span>. Midnight kick off for WA</p>

    <p>It's some primeval fear of missing the start or something, I know, but I have checked the kick off time about three different ways probably four times today. ... actual kick off time? <em>Check.</em> Time zone conversion? <em>Check.</em> Eastern Daylight time to QLD time? <em>Check.</em> Check the additions and subtractions. Do it in reverse - does the mathematics line up? <em>Check.</em></p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>It is quite sad that a mere game can make a grown man develop such a phobia! :idiot2: </p>

    <p>Nervous as hell here. Spent the past week in a panic work emergency. Missed the semi-live (watched on replay) - reckon I might have had a stroke. Can't imagine what the Final is going to do to me. C'mon All Blacks!!!</p>

    <p>I'm going to head to Trafalgar Square very shortly.  Watched the quarter in the Clapham Grand, and the semi in the Temple Walkabout.  It's going to be mental. </p>

    <p>Had to crash at around 7pm as nervousness set in and body wasn't handling the strain well. Woke up at 2am, nervous as fuck, then the nerves have died away for the most part. Going to watch online. Thank gawd for Prozac.</p>

    The lone vigil in the lounge has begun. Good luck to the boys and to all of us. I hope everyone enjoys the game, and to the kiwis here's to coming out on top!
