Wallabies beaten by a better team. Congrats Wayno!
And he sees the vision splendid of the sunlit plains extended,
And at night the wondrous glory of the everlasting stars.

This is a bush walking forum Wayno. No one wants to discuss the World Cup :wink:

Congratulations to NZ

Inevitable. There's been a big gap between the All Blacks and the rest for a fair while now. Congratulations, mate.

I consider this topic to be political and bordering on religion. It clearly infringed on forum rules. :P

Great game it was and congrats to the Kiwis!

Played in a few elite schools and universities. Few Aussies know anything about rugby union.
Netball, on the other hand...

Much the same here. The junior rugby league teams are now dominated by south pacific islander children who are much bigger and stronger than their peers. Not surprising that parents are concerned.

Are you really comparing "local" footy with an international, not to mention professional, competition? LOL
