You guys in the US and Canada might not know it but we (NZ), the greatest rugby team in the world, just got knocked out of the Rugby World Cup by France.
It was the Pommie referee's fault and the world will never be the same again

Geordie,

That's too bad... It's a real bummer when something important is changed by an Official's mistake.

We don't have Instant Replay where calls can be challenged in Baseball...
We are currently in the playoffs to see who will play in the World Series...
There have been several Official errors which have changed outcomes...

I think we will have Instant Replay in Playoffs and World series games real soon... If we don't, we should have.

Perhaps your Rugby Cup games should also have Instant Replay where important play calls could be reviewed to be sure of accuracy?

As a Brit expat, all I can say is nah nah nah
Can't blame us Brits, if you'd played better it would not have been a close call
There's always next time

I'm staying well out of it as an ex-Pom.

Thanks for the sincere expression of sympathy, vapochilled.
It's wise you're staying out of it Harry. The Poms did for the Aussies too

There was sympathy, I almost cried into my beer
Seriously, you can't sit there and say the kiwi's played well in the first half? it was like watching , well watching the English play

nzgeordie

You're right, vapo. Now the shock's worn off I have to agree that we didn't perform on the day. Ah well, Allez les Bleus!

Now, come on pal, who you putting your money on? England vs the Springboks. going to be a tough game.

nzgeordie

Dead right it'll be tough. The Boks are physical players and play more of a running game. My money would have to be on them unless England can shut them down and kick their way to another win.
