Very funny and clever IMO

lardyl

worth a read............

amusing how some England haters and England lovers took it seriously.

anyone who uses the word "sports" instead of "sport" needs to be shot in the guts though, and yes that includes the whole of the US population

some of the blog is factually incorrect BTW - I'm sure you've spotted it though Aunty....? second paragraph?

I see you've still not found your way to the ignore button. But then, why would you, when flexing your muscles, baiting and posting your poisonous barbs is so much more fun.

Yeah the same thought occurred to me It's all part of the pre-match posturing and chest beating that always goes on. I doubt that anyone takes it seriously - that would be unsportsmanlike

Bellasmum

I did. I thought the blog was quite funny.

Funny how the knives have been out for the English since they lost to the French.

I remember another team that lost to the French in the quarter finals for the last world cup.

How could we forget? I hope all those Kiwis that were last weekend sporting berets along with the red, white and the bleu face paint and clothing will continue to show their support for France through to the final.

I love this quote in todays Herald.

"A group of players, led by Mike Tindall, have a drunken night out in Queenstown after their opening victory over Argentina, cavorting with women and dwarves."

Only being a Welshman in NZ could beat being a Welshman in England at the mo......

Bo-Jangles

Yeah but you'd get pretty tired of the endless comments that the Welsh only did so well because of Warren Gatland and Graham Henry in the past; it goes on and on and no matter what happens the Kiwis will claim all the victory they can muster.

Now don't get too excited out there people, there's a 75% chance of a New Zealand coach getting his hands on the web Ellis cup. Latest comments say that the next best thing to the All Blacks winning apparently would be a face off between Robbie Deans V Warren Gatland in the final. :lol That way they're guaranteed a Kiwi wins.

How desperate are they that they'd settle for any kind of vicarious kudos?

I cannot tell you how much I want anyone else but NZ to win this world cup. Id rather the French won. It sad, cos I am a permanent resident of NZ, but the racist and bigoted arrogant rubbish Ive heard about the ALL BLACKS is just too much. I have nothing against any all black or Graham Henry, but cmon the WELSH, Cymru am byth

BJ we in the Northern Hemisphere realised a long time ago that NZ and their attitude to Rugby Union is something special and unique. Any nation of 4 million that can year after year show the World how to win in style can send as many coaches as they want to Wales and we will say a big thank you. Pity England didn't try the same route.....
