All Blacks vs Springboks

"The All Blacks scored seven tries to thrash the Springboks 52-16 in their Tri-Nations match at Loftus Versveld this morning. The victory was a record win for the All Blacks against their greatest rivals."

Ok Iam talking to James on MSN and not getting very far as everytime I ask him somthing he keeps saying how fantastic the All Blacks were, so Iam starting this thread to keep him happy - as his idea of posting under the CW main headline seems a little wrong to me :saint:

The headline would have just read 'Woo-hoo' - and the text would have been the same.

Straight and to the point is James.

Yawn, inferior sides

Still, if SA are going to play this badly in the World Cup, then we'll be happy.

Makes Australias performance last week against S.A look very poor...South Africa were woeful.

And how overrated is Brent Russel? he's hopeless on defence.

All week I heard SA this, SA that, and then I heard Brent Russel this and Brent Russel that.

Everything is quiet now

All Blaccks certainly were impressive. On the flip side though, apartt from Joost, Willsemsie and Juan Smith, South Africaq were utterly disgraceful!

I fear for my beloved Australia's safety this week in the Bledisloe Cup, however.

I don't think Australia will have any trouble rising for this weeks Bledisloe Cup match but if they continue to play like they have recently then things could get ugly.

In saying that I hope the All Blacks won't be under any false impressions after their demolition of South Africa..lets not forget that 3 weeks ago against France they were very ordinary.

well, i went into the new zealand shop in covent garden to ask the result. (this is about 10 minutes after the game ended), the shop people didnt know, but i was walking down the tsreet after and the shop guy came running after me about a 100 yards to tell me the score, i was very pleased... i wanted to run up to the men in SA rugby shirts and laugh. but i couldnt. my friends who hate rugby were with me and that would have been way uncool.

I reckon NZ will beat Australia. Aussies foward pack seems a bit out of sorts. It doesn't matter how good your backs are. If the fowards are **** you'll lose fo sho.
