Country: | The World Cup isn't really up for grabs in my opinion, the New Zealanders have it pretty much wrapped up having been playing some awesome rugger... (much better than anyone else - at least up here in the North).

Country: | I am a Cantabrian and proud of it. 
The good thing for us, is we could probably put at LEAST two top sides in the world cup at the same time at this moment in time, long may the momentum continue. |

Country: | I am a Queensland Reds Supporter Yak and oh by the way Lanc. when your side managers to win Rugby World Cup twice then come back and say something intelligent. but as gnomey said methinks its an AllBlack team which will be hard to beat this year. unless they go via past form and get scrubbed in the semis as usual |

Country: | Should be an interesting game, look forward to see how Jonny does on his return to the international stage. Continuing with the 6 Nations theme the French thrashed the Italians this afternoon (game is still going on but the French are 36-3 up)...

Country: | i saw the first 30 minutes of that game and was not impressed by the italians, the 3 points they did get were only just converted in an unconvincing kick.........

Country: | Canterbury all the way.
They don't come more one eyed than a Cantab.
Even one who has been misplaced to JAFA land (Just Another Fing Aucklander)
Still the escape to the South Island proceeds according to plan.
The joke around here during the last Lions tour.
----------------------------
During their last tour of New Zealand, the Lions Rugby team caused a Hazardous Chemical incident during their first practice session at Eden Park in Auckland.
The Chief Fire Officer calmed every one down when he explained...
"The strange white substance on the grass was in fact the TRY LINE."

Now geez you New Zeealanders you son of a guns can whip @ss and can play rugby, but watch out we are not far behind, we will one day kick you bud. LOL

Just remember.
While we enjoy beating you guys, beating the Aussies at rugby is a national passion.
And if we aren't doing it, we cheer for any other team that does. Even the POMS.
