Oh my Down under is having a huge celebration today, it was 1987 the last time we won it, and we just had to bring it home on home turf, WELL DONE GUYS, I am so proud to be a KIWI today.

We only won by 1 point, which means the French played so well, i take my hat off to them, they were very gracious in defeat,and the French should indeed be proud of them.

It is kind of spooky, the score was 8-7 to the ALL BLACKS, last won in 1987 and that day back then a rainbow appeared over the field, guess what, same thing happened.

Hey and Wom you know how i said i was not in to sport, I confess i am now a convert LOVED it all, and totally hooked, mind you i do have my eye candy of the team, the handsome ,sexy Ma'a Nonu.

So for the girls, here is my favourite all black, what you think? he is a HUNK.

Congratulations, and yes, we thought of you when we heard the news! And yup, he is a hunk!

Thanks karen, yep it was so nerve racking, i actually felt sick in the stomach at one stage, as i thought we were going to loose it,i never thought i could get so heated up over a game of sport, but there ya go lol.

Oh i know isn't he DA MAN. LOVE HIM. lol.:D:D

That's not unusual. If one is French, then one is used to being defeated. May as well not be a sore loser. :D

Oh i know isn't he DA MAN. LOVE HIM. lol.:D:D

He looks a little bit crosseyed to me. :p:p

[carole]

For me Rugby is only the ALL BLACKS!!!! I think they are perfect, I love all the polynesian teams. I adore seeing the different haka each of them has. For me there is no other team but the ALL BLACKS!!!! I adore them!!!!

Carole, I damn well think he is a smokin'.

Congratulations.

[RICHARD]

Watched the second half and still don't understand any of the game.

It was fun, interesting and a tight game.

Loved the hitting and tried to figure out why kicking the ball to the other team is good.....

Never mind...;)

Congrats and party for the next four years.:D

hey Richard i don't really understand it yet, but then i am a novice ,but i never realised what a violent game it can be, man they must be sore after that, my poor Nonu was underneath a lot of the time, i was worried he would be hurt, but they don't call him the Titan for nothing.

Oh kittycats_delight, i loved reading your post , i had no idea anyone overseas loved our boys as much as you do, I know isn't he just SMOKIN HOT,hence to say i have him on my computer start up so i can feast my eyes on him every day,he he.,hey there are some non-polynesians in the team,our captain is Ritchie Mccaw, and Dan carter is considered another hottie by the girls, he was out of the cup by injury,and despite loosing one of our best players, we brought the cup home ,it has been a long time coming 24 years.

I love the Haka, i am european, but it is just awesome, i am always so proud when the guys do it,it is FIERCE, i see France got a $20.000 dollar fine for getting too close to the guys doing their Haka, It is in the rule book, and a big NO NO.

It is all a bit of showmanship, but is awesome.

Did you know they are called the ALL BLACKS because of their black clothing,no other reason, not a lot of people know that.

YEP NONU you are indeed a babe,and a really good player, you should see him tackle, he is awesome.
