@BartMan said in RWC: England v New Zealand (SF1):
I think the only real beating up of the ABs the last few years is Paddies in Chicago and Convicts in Perth. The rest of the losses are just the ABs running out of time to win π
The arrogance of new posters never ceases to amaze.

@The-Irishman if both teams play to thier potential, who wins?
Most kiwis are confident in that IF we play to our potential, we should win; but we know sport isnt that simple, a couple of players have an off day and all of a sudden, we are no where near our potential...the margins are fine, add in the variables of human nature (players and ref) and makes it even more squeaky...
Ahem

Attention seeking moron gets shit tattoo.
Tbh, I could write that same sentence about 90% of anyone getting inked.
Look at moi, I'm so wacky! I'm getting a tattoo that will put me in the newspaper.

Has England ever beaten a team ranked above them at a RWC?
Surely in 2007 on their route to the final?
There was a World Cup in 2007?

I looked it up and there was indeed a RWC that year. It looks possible that France would have been ranked one place higher than England in their semi-final

He's probably got a Hurricanes Trophy tattoo on his other leg.

@ACT-Crusader a quote from some famous quarterback I think.
I've never lost a game, but I've run out of time in plenty of occasions.
Something like that...
I think it epitomises the AB mindset, not that they'd say that of course.
But I, an arrogant AB fan can π

I think not having a tattoo today is now the rebellious option

Definitely!
My bare leg is a statement against not having any challenges in the tattoo era!

Definitely not.

Sitting in Yokohama... a shitload of rain coming down.
Even if there's none tomorrow, the pitch is going to be a soft muddy sty.
Edit... I can not stress βshitloadβ enough.At least it seems to be easing here in Tokyo, it's cool here now. Forecast is for dry and overcast with maybe fine patches too, 23degs. Hopefully its warm in Yokohama as well, make those English fatties sweat

@PN Well, one guy came out of that looking like a complete twat, and one guy came out sounding like a decent reasonable bloke.
Unfortunately... which one does everybody think is going to be offered the more work providing "commentary" and "opinion" pieces? -

Unfortunately... which one does everybody think is going to be offered the more work providing "commentary" and "opinion" pieces?It works because both have different opinions expressed in the same show.
And Haskell has got an MMA career to big up. Hence the 'it's on' stance.
His take on Peyper's standing down is spot on.
