    I watched the opening ceremony and game but have never seen the final.

    I did go to the two AB pool games in Melbourne. I even had a brief chat to a couple of ABs while walking around the city.

    Watched the final in Akrotiri in Cyprus, with John Smiths and halloumi & bacon butties, after shooting the shit out of towed targets, awesome.

    Where do I start? Mitchell leaves Cullen out in favour of Atiga, Tana gets crocked in a freak incident as Carlos crabs across the midfield. Tana says he's okay to play, but Mitch and Robbie (the artist soon to be know as Dingo) pick the revolving door that was Leon MacDonald at 13. Mr Potato head gets a runaway try in the SF and we have to watch Johnny win England's one and only RWC

    Was 2003 also the scene of Gregan's iconic "4 more years" sledge?

    You spelled subjectively wrong.

    Compare with 1991, 1999 and 2007.

    But I'll accept you're still suffering PTSD from Kamp Staaldraad.

    Was on a flight home from Europe to NZ during the semifinal. Air NZ pilot gave the halftime and full time scores. Plane silent.

    Apparently Farrell was incensed with Biggar after the 'tackle' because Biggar said

    'The Irish coach is shagging your mum'

    Ben Atiga being selected ahead of Christian Cullen.

    🤦‍♂️

    Yes, we really missed that four and a half minutes off game time against Tonga from Cullen….

    You do realise that Atiga was an injury replacement.

    @ACT-Crusader For Ben Blair, yes. Christian Cullen got overlooked twice in 2003.

    @ACT-Crusader Cully didn’t exactly help himself with the timing of his autobiography: https://amp.theguardian.com/sport/2003/oct/20/rugbyworldcup2003.rugbyunion9
