Re: Rugby Playoffs!

Yeah it was a good game!  Next up (I think) is Argentina and Australia to see who gets to play them in the final, which should also be a game worth seeing because at this level the teams are strong and evenly matched.  What really strikes me is the strength and endurance of the players.  Unlike American football where you see guys 6'4' and pushing 300 Lbs+, these fellows are something like 6'2' and 205Lbs!  Not a double cheeseburger in the bunch, just rawhide and spring steel.

Re: Rugby Playoffs!

Australia Vs New Zealand for the Final!   Set your schedule accordingly...... should be a well fought game, and a Historic Matchup as well.

Re: Rugby Playoffs!

yep, i watched both matches and i found the NZ RSA game far more enjoyable. the Argentine kicking was immaculate and the Ozzies were organised and strong. but my money is on New Zealand

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Re: Rugby Playoffs!

I love when the NZ All Blacks do "the Haka" -    so freaking cool and intimidating - and done for the rigt reasons!

Love it !

Re: Rugby Playoffs!

That'll be a beauty, as we often say in Canada. Two great teams, with a fine tradition of excellent rugby. Has everyone seen the 2009 film "Invictus"? It's about South Africa's world champion rugby journey, and is (IMHO) the best acting Morgan Freeman has ever done.

Re: Rugby Playoffs!

I just looked at the "head-to-head" matches between these two this year, and the home team won in each case. Since the finals are in England, that advantage is removed for the game on Sunday, so it's anyone's guess. The Bronze Medal match between South Africa & Argentina on Saturday should be a first class tilt as well.

Re: Rugby Playoffs!

Go the All Blacks will be heard from one end of New Zealand to the other when they confront our Aussie opposition.
The All Blacks will start with one of two Haka's either Ka mate or Kapa Pango.  Ka mate was written by a famous Maori Chief Te Rauparaha. 
The first Part Ka mate Ka mate Ka ora Ka Ora Tis death Tis death Tis Life Tis Life. Or in other words  I may die. I may Live. So its a commitment by the All Blacks to put their life's on the line for the battle against the Aussies. 
The other possible Haka that could be used is Kapa Pango.  The first part roughly translated into English is.
This is our land that rumbles.
Its our time its our moment.
This defines us as All Blacks.
Its our Time Its our moment.
Our dominance our supremacy will triumph.

I hope you all enjoy the game.

Doug thanks for letting me know,ya that's way too early for beer I will have to have some good coffee and eggo frozen waffles. I am pulling for the All Blackes team. Beer later for the collage football. Sunday lineup looks good and I do not think my49ers will win,the rams have a tough defence. South Africa team on Saturday.

Re: Rugby Playoffs!

A big congratulations to the New Zealand All Blacks!

That's a decisive victory (34-17) and something to dance about.

Worthy mention goes to the Aussie's (silver medalists), and South Africa (bronze medalists) for their 24-13 win over Argentina.

Re: Rugby Playoffs!

my oldest son is a naturalised ozzy, so i was divided in my allegiances. i find i have more kiwi friends than ozzy ones and anyway i thought the all blacks played better all through the tournament.

SO WELL DONE NEW ZEALAND, CONGRATS.

That was one of the best Rugby games I have seen. I could not belive some of the great kicking they did.
