Luxury motels, gorgeous resorts, fat paypackets and an elevated status in society are totally unwarranted.

Wait for the excuse machine to start rollling -- they (AB Management) spent 4 years telling us they knew what they were doing - as per normal they treat us like simpletons and yet never deliver!

598860 2007-10-06 21:18:00 I think you're being a bit unfair.
NZ still the greatest rugby nation on Earth. It was a close game. France played extremely well. That's all there is to it. A couple of decisions went against them could have made a difference. Playing in France against the home nation. Not playing in the traditional black jerseys. etc etc. I don't think the ABs played badly at all.

598861 2007-10-06 21:37:00 How can you describe NZ as the greatest rugby nation when we haven't won the World Cup since 1987, continually losing in semi finals or quarter finals to teams we'd normally beat! Chemical Ali (118)

We can expect to see you at the top of the list for contenders for Graham Henry's replacement then can we?

It's a knockout competition. **** happens.
ABs have consistently been the team to beat since the dawn of time. There are other teams who can play rugby well too you know.

598864 2007-10-06 21:50:00 Great game, Respect to the French. All Blacks played well but couldn't get the points.

A worthy loss imo, and an excellent win for the French. Ref was a knob but he didn't lose the game for us.

My only hope is that all those players that have been negotiating overseas contracts in the last year in order to desert the All Blacks are never given another chance in NZ to redeem themselves.

They want to go to France,Good, **** off and stay there.

We were all aware we hadn't won the World Cup in a while and I personally considered NZ the top in the world due to previous performances and the team dynamic. I think putting any team up on such a high pedestal can lead to so much disappointment but seriously suck it up, stop blaming them and see it as it was .... :thumbs:

598867 2007-10-06 23:06:00 Hmm... don't worry mate even if you didn't win you are still a great rugby team. And for the next world up in Australia and then in NZ (?) again don't worry if you don't win, you will still be the great rugby team. Nomad (952)
